Coffee Has Been Proven Good For The Kidneys
According to the latest research by Portuguese scientists, it has been proven that coffee is good for chronic kidney diseases. In the last study, it was determined that the mortality rate in kidney patients who consume more caffeine is lower than those who consume less. According to new research by scientists, the release of nitric oxide associated with caffeine, which improves the functioning of blood vessels, may be the reason for the protective effect that increases the lifespan of people suffering from chronic kidney disease. The study, published in the Scientific Journal of Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, analyzed profiles of 4,863 American adults with kidney problems. As a result of the study, it was concluded that those who consumed more caffeine over a 20-year period had a 25 percent lower risk of death compared to those who consumed less caffeine.
