Yes, coffee can be healthy when consumed in moderation. It’s rich in antioxidants and may offer several health benefits, including improved brain function, enhanced metabolism, and a lower risk of certain diseases like Parkinson’s, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease.
Moderate coffee intake (about 2–4 cups per day) is generally safe for most people and can be part of a healthy lifestyle.
However, excessive consumption or adding too much sugar and cream can offset the benefits. Also, individuals sensitive to caffeine or with certain health conditions should consult a doctor before making coffee a regular part of their diet.
