Regular, moderate coffee drinking has been shown to “lower risks for type 2 diabetes, reduce chances of getting gallstones, cut back the likelihood of developing colon cancer, and lessening risks of liver damage in susceptible individuals. Improved cognitive function is, of course, a given since caffeine helps people focus.”
Whether Joule offers the same benefits, remains to be seen.
