Story summary
- Finnish University of Oulu researchers analyzing 2,264 participants from the Finland Cohort 1966 found coffee consumption correlates with lower visceral fat and higher muscle mass in 46-year-olds.
- Higher coffee intake was linked to lower branched-chain amino acids, a marker of insulin resistance, and in men to a better glucose-insulin profile and testosterone.
- Researchers warned the study cannot prove causation and noted Finland’s coffee use of 11.8 kg per person per year.
