Research on the benefits of Coffee and Mental Health:

Research indicates that moderate coffee consumption, particularly 2-3 cups daily, may be linked to a reduced risk of depression and anxiety. This is likely due to coffee's antioxidants, which help combat inflammation, and caffeine, which acts as a central nervous system stimulant. However, effects vary by individual, and high intake can cause anxiety or sleep disturbances in some people.

The association between coffee consumption and risk of incident depression and anxiety: Exploring the benefits of moderate intake:

Conclusion

In this large prospective cohort study, we found that moderate daily coffee consumption, especially at 2–3 cups of ground coffee, milk-coffee, or unsweetened coffee, was associated with a lower risk of incident depression and anxiety. Our findings support the recommendation that moderate coffee consumption could be part of a healthy lifestyle to prevent and manage depression and anxiety in the general population.
