Drinking coffee can have a slight anti-inflammatory effect and help regulate high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, according to a new study by Finnish and German researchers.
The researchers reported that they asked 47 subjects who had a coffee drinking habit to quit drinking coffee for a month, four cups of traditionally handmade coffee a day for the second month, and eight cups of such coffee a day for the third month.
By analyzing the subjects' blood samples, the researchers found that in the last month of the trial, the levels of pro-inflammatory interleukin-18 in the subjects' blood decreased by 8%. The level of isoprostaglandin decreased by 16%, but the level of adiponectin, an anti-inflammatory factor, increased by 6%. As a result, the researchers believe that drinking coffee can slow inflammation, which is not obvious in the clinical response.
