Exploring the Health Benefits of Coffee Bioactive Components and Their Mechanisms

Coffee is a beverage that contains a variety of bioactive compounds such as caffeine, chlorogenic acid, and diterpenes that have potential benefits to human health. Due to the severe neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) and cancer, exploring new aspects of these disease's treatment like coffees health benefits is necessary. Recent studies have shown that coffee consumption is associated with reduced risks of stroke, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. However, the mechanisms and interactions of these bioactive compounds are not unclear. So this study reviews the extraction methods of caffeine, chlorogenic acid, and diterpenes and their health effects. Also, this paper analyzes the antioxidant, anticancer, and neuroprotective properties of coffee with specific examples like the risk of stroke, diabetes, and several NDDs. As a result, the paper provides valuable information on the health benefits of coffee and offers support for dietary recommendations, hoping future studies could focus on exploring the long-term health impacts of coffee consumption in different populations with more specific categories.
