A US study of more than 8,000 participants over the age of 60 found consuming more than three cups of coffee per day could have serious effects on brain health for the elderly. The research , presented as part of the 2024 Alzheimer’s Association International Conference, linked an overconsumption of coffee to difficulties in pattern recognition, logical thinking and abstract reasoning, common cognitive health indicators.

Interestingly, the project also discovered that "moderate" consumption of coffee, in this case no more than three cups, could actually act to combat cognitive decline. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.createElement('script');el.
