保护和修复DNA
A research conducted at the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany showed that drinking a dark roast coffee regularly contributes to DNA integrity. The quality of coffee does matter, though. Coffee beans are sprayed with pesticides, which can affect your DNA. Choose the organic version instead.
在德国凯撒斯劳滕大学进行的一个研究表明，有规律的喝黑咖啡有助于维持DNA的完整性。咖啡的质量也很重要。如果咖啡豆被喷洒农药，一旦食用后会对你的DNA产生影响。选择有机咖啡作为替代品吧。
2、Protect your eyes against cataract formation induced by the sun's UV
保护眼睛--以防由太阳紫外线引起白内障
Researchers from the University of Maryland School of Medicine, USA, showed that caffeine, including that found in coffee, can help lower the oxidative stress that results from the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation, which is one of the main risk factors for cataracts. Perhaps drinking a cup of coffee is essential during the summer season.
来自美国马里兰大学医学院的研究人员发现，咖啡因，包括咖啡中发现的咖啡因，可以帮助降低来自太阳紫外线辐射造成的恶性氧化应激反应--这是白内障的主要风险因素之一。也许在夏天，喝一杯咖啡必不可少。
3、Lower the risk of developing type 2 diabetes
降低2型糖尿病的风险
A study conducted by the researchers at the Department of Nutrition, Harvard School of Public Health, USA, found that boosting coffee consumption over a four-year period is associated with a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes. It sounds like a great reason to sip on coffee in the morning. Just make sure your coffee is not hot. Hot coffee has weak health benefits. 美国哈佛公共卫生学院营养系的研究人员发现，四年多来，咖啡消费量的提高与2型糖尿病患病风险的降低密切相关。这听起来像是早上喝咖啡的一个很棒的理由。但要确保你的咖啡不热哦。热咖啡对于健康来说，益处甚微。
4、Increase your life expectancy
延长你的预期寿命
Greek researchers from the University of Athens Medical School, Athens, Greece, tried to figure out why people on the Greek island of Ikaria live a lot longer than we do. There are many people who feel healthy in their early 100s on the island. Is it a boiled Greek type of coffee? Or just a mysterious island? A study showed that regular coffee consumption is associated with better endothelial function in elderly subjects, and provides a new connection between vascular health and nutrition.
希腊雅典的雅典医学院研究人员一直试图弄清楚--为什么希腊伊卡里亚岛居民的寿命比正常人长很多。岛上的很多人在一百岁以前都感觉很健康。是因为一种煮过的希腊式咖啡？还是只是因为这是一个神秘的岛屿？一项研究表明，定期喝咖啡使老年人拥有更好的血管内皮功能，而且这提在血管健康和营养之间提供了一种新的关联。
5、Keep your muscles strong
保持肌肉强壮
Strong muscles are one of the secrets to living a longer life. While exercise is essential for keeping your muscles strong, drinking organic coffee stimulates the cellular recycling process that is needed for strong muscles according to the research from Wingate University in North Carolina. Coffee can help muscle regeneration and prevent age-related muscle loss.
强壮的肌肉是长寿的秘诀之一。尽管运动是保持肌肉强壮的基础，但根据北卡罗莱纳温盖特大学的研究，强健的肌肉需要喝有机咖啡来刺激细胞循环。咖啡可以帮助肌肉再生，并且防止因年岁增长造成的肌肉损失。
