Coffee is a drink that has been the subject of much fascination over the centuries. It is consumed by 90% of French people on a daily basis. However, many consumers feel guilty because many preconceived ideas still convey a negative preconception about coffee, undoubtedly inherited from the centuries that preceded us.

Based on numerous very well-controlled scientific works, this book attempts to take stock of our current knowledge on the effects of coffee on health. The most recent studies report numerous beneficial effects of daily consumption of 2 to 4 cups of coffee.

Thus this book shows that coffee:

- increases alertness and attention, concentration, energy but can in return disrupt sleep in sensitive individuals;
- improves mood and provides a feeling of well-being;
- has an analgesic effect in headaches and migraines;
- maintains better cognition during aging;
- reduces the risk of developing Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, stroke or type 2 diabetes;
- is not bad for the heart;
- is protective in liver, breast, prostate and endometrial cancer;
- does not modify our degree of hydration;
- can be consumed in moderate doses during pregnancy;
- has beneficial activities in endurance and team sports.

This book shows that coffee can be perfectly integrated into a healthy and balanced diet. Consumed in reasonable doses, coffee can safely continue to delight its lovers, without ulterior motives or guilt.
