Good news, coffee lovers! A new study says that just 4 cups of coffee a day may help help with weight loss. ☕
"We were indeed surprised by the observed weight loss that was specifically due to fat mass loss among coffee drinkers," said study author Derrick Johnston Alperet, a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.Rather, he and his colleagues think that coffee-fueled fat loss may be the result of a"metabolic reaction," in which caffeine causes the drinker's metabolic process to ramp up.
Alperet thinks not. Prior research, he said, indicates that this level of consumption is well within current norms. Studies, he noted, suggest that on average Americans currently consume up to 4 cups daily, while Europeans can average as much as 7 cups.Connie Diekman, a food and nutrition consultant and former president of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, is not so sure.
But too much caffeine"can impact the body overall, causing headaches, jitters, rapid heartbeat and stomach distress," noted Diekman, who wasn't involved with the study. In the meantime,"we believe more research is needed here," Alperet said."Additional trials with more comprehensive assessments of body composition are needed to confirm our findings."
