Tag: Occasional coffee

According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), most healthy adults can consume up to 400 milligrams of caffeine daily without experiencing negative side effects. For those who only drink coffee occasionally, the effects can differ significantly from regular consumers due to a lower tolerance, making mindful consumption key to a positive experience.

According to a study published in the journal Stroke, drinking just one cup of coffee a week was associated with a 14% lower risk of early death from all causes in healthy adults. So, can I drink coffee once in a week and still enjoy health benefits while avoiding daily dependence? The answer is nuanced, depending on your personal health, sensitivity, and how you prepare it.
