Summary

A Tulane University study found that drinking coffee only in the morning is linked to a 16% lower risk of death from all causes and a 31% lower risk of heart disease compared to non-coffee drinkers.

Researchers analyzed data from over 40,000 U.S. adults and suggested morning coffee between 4:00 a.m. and noon aligns with natural sleep-wake cycles, potentially reducing inflammation.

Afternoon and evening coffee showed no benefits, and the study found no link between coffee and reduced cancer mortality.

Experts stress further research is needed before making lifestyle changes.
