Hot coffee is deemed the best drink to kick-start your day. It is relied upon for waking up across the globe because a hot cuppa is enough to help you feel cheery, revitalised, relaxed and warm in winters. Does this mean coffee is purely a drink that should be enjoyed when it's freezing outside?
ABSOLUTELY NOT!
There’s no need for hot coffee lovers to miss out on their caffeine fix even in the scorching hot summers of Pakistan because research indicates that drinking coffee has numerous benefits, regardless of the temperature. In fact, summertime hot-coffee aficionados might just be smarter than iced-coffee lovers!
Gripping fact: A study published in 2018 in the JAMA Internal Medicine revealed that drinking coffee may help people live longer
Let’s see why hot coffee is an all seasons drink!
Hot coffee has more antioxidants than iced counterparts
A research published in the Scientific Reports journal focused on chemical differences between cold and hot brews. They found that hot coffee has higher levels of antioxidants, which makes it relatively healthier. Since it’s the antioxidants in coffee that help us reap a plethora of benefits, such as lower risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, liver disease, and more, this is an incredible finding!
Hot coffee can put you in a more pleasant and generous mood
The warmth from a cup of tantalising hot brew every morning may actually boost a more positive mindset. Interestingly, as much as just holding a hot mug of coffee makes people feel more caring, generous and warm towards others.
Hot coffee can wake you up and make you feel less stressed
Did you know even a whiff of scrumptious hot coffee in the morning can help you reap its benefits? Studies show that the aroma of coffee can alter our brain activity and reduce the effects of sleep deprivation like tiredness and stress.
So, why deprive yourself of coffee in any season? Whether it's the peak of summers or the chilly winters, coffee surely is your best bet!
