Whether you rely on coffee to wake you up in the morning or simply enjoy its unique taste, then you know that not every cup is the same.

In addition to the type of coffee beans used, any type of sweetener can also change its taste.

A new study, which AgroWeb.org refers to, has found that a cup of coffee that contains little or ideally no sugar can help you live longer.

How is this possible?

The study, conducted by researchers at Guangzhou Medical University, China, looked at data from over 171,000 participants.

When looking at how unsweetened and sweetened coffee affect the body, the research showed that after a seven-year period, those who chose unsweetened coffee lived about 16-20% longer than those who didn't. that they did not consume at all.

These figures rose to 29-31% when it came to participants who regularly added about a teaspoon of sugar.

Although the findings are interesting, for some nutritionists they are not that surprising.

This is because there is a lot of data showing that coffee is a healthy and anti-inflammatory drink.

According to them, black coffee is the healthiest because it contains all the right polyphenols and antioxidants, without any of the inflammatory components.

As for coffee that is sweetened with little sugar, the study showed that it has essentially the same effect.

Nutritionists back this up by saying that 1 teaspoon of sugar is a small amount if you're following a healthy diet.

For them, the most serious health consequences are drinks with a lot of sugar, which contain from eight to 12 teaspoons of sugar, including coffee that is sold ready./ Agroweb
