The researchers found a correlation between how much caffeine the women typically drank (which was mostly from coffee) when they were between 45 and 60 years old and their likelihood of healthy aging. After adjusting for other factors that could affect aging, such as their overall diet, how much they exercised and whether they smoked, those who consumed the most caffeine (equivalent to nearly seven eight-ounce cups of coffee per day) had odds of healthy aging that were 13 percent higher than those who consumed the least caffeine (equivalent to less than one cup per day).

    Yeah, I really should try some quality coffee. I’m usually just doing instant. Even gas station coffee usually tastes better.

    Nice idea with the agave.

      My tip for those starting away from instant is to get the aeropress as it’s a pretty low cost of entry and doesn’t take up much space. Get the XL if you need a larger cup. The V60 is affordable as well, but you’ll need something to pour the coffee with. Good luck on your journey.
