Brewing method is influential, but it&#8217;s not clear what impact espresso coffee might have, and in what quantities.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers therefore wanted to compare espresso coffee with other brewing methods among adults aged 40 and older (average age 56).<\/p>\n<p>They drew on data from 21,083 participants (11074 women;10009 men) responding to the seventh survey of the Troms\u00f8 Study in 2015-16, a long term population study, which began in 1974, involving residents of the Norwegian city of Troms\u00f8. <\/p>\n<p>Participants were asked how many daily cups of coffee they drank\u2014none, 1\u20132 cups; 3\u20135; and 6 or more\u2014and what brew type they drank\u2014filtered; plunger (cafeti\u00e8re); espresso from coffee machines, pods, mocha pots, etc; and instant.<\/p>\n<p>Blood samples were taken, and height and weight measured. Information was also sought on potentially influential factors: diet and lifestyle, including smoking, alcohol intake and physical activity; educational attainment; and whether type 2 diabetes had been diagnosed. <\/p>\n<p>Women drank an average of just under 4 cups of coffee every day while men drank an average of nearly 5. <\/p>\n<p>Analysis of the data showed that the association between coffee and serum total cholesterol varied, depending on brewing method, with significant sex differences for all brew types bar plunger coffee.<\/p>\n<p>Drinking 3\u20135 daily cups of espresso was significantly associated with increased serum total cholesterol, particularly among the men.<\/p>\n<p>Compared with those who drank none, this pattern of consumption was associated with 0.09 mmol\/l higher serum cholesterol among the women <i>vs<\/i> 0.16 mmol\/l higher among the men.<\/p>\n<p>A daily tally of 6 or more cups of plunger coffee was also associated with raised cholesterol, and to a similar degree in both sexes: 0.30 mmol\/l higher among the women <i>vs<\/i> 0.23 mmol\/l higher among the men. <\/p>\n<p>And getting through 6 or more cups of filtered coffee every day was associated with 0.11 mmol\/l higher cholesterol among the women, but not among the men, when compared with those not drinking filtered coffee. <\/p>\n<p>While instant coffee was associated with an increase in cholesterol in both sexes, this didn&#8217;t rise in tandem with the number of cups drunk, when compared with those who didn&#8217;t opt for coffee powder\/granules.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers point out that there was no standardized cup size used in their study; Norwegians tend to drink out of larger espresso cups than Italians do, for example.<\/p>\n<p>Different types of espresso\u2013from coffee machines, capsules, or mocha pots\u2014are also likely to contain different levels of the key naturally occurring chemicals.<\/p>\n<p>And there are as yet no obvious explanations for the gender discrepancy in cholesterol response to coffee drinking, they add.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Interestingly, coffee contains more than a thousand diverse phytochemicals.The intake of each compound also depends on the variety of coffee species, roasting degree, type of brewing method and serving size,&#8221; they explain. <\/p>\n<p>Experimental studies show that cafestol and kahweol, as well as increasing total cholesterol, have anti-inflammatory effects, protect the liver, and lessen the risks of cancer and diabetes, they add.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This demonstrates how coffee contains compounds that may lead to multiple mechanisms operating simultaneously,&#8221; highlight the researchers.<\/p>\n<p>And they note: &#8220;Coffee is the most frequently consumed central stimulant worldwide. Because of the high consumption of coffee, even small health effects can have considerable health consequences.&#8221;\n                                                                                                                        <\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<div class=\"article-main__explore my-4 d-print-none\">\n<p>                                                                                        Coffee and tea drinking may be associated with reduced rates of stroke and dementia\n                                                                                    <\/p><\/div>\n<hr class=\"mb-4\"\/>\n<div class=\"article-main__more p-4\">\n                                                                                                <strong>More information:<\/strong><br \/>\n                                                Association between espresso coffee and serum total cholesterol: the Troms\u00f8 Study 2015\u20132016, <i>Open Heart<\/i> (2022). <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-doi=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1136\/openhrt-2021-00194\">DOI: 10.1136\/openhrt-2021-00194<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"d-inline-block text-medium my-4\">\n                                                Provided by<br \/>\n                                                                                                    British Medical Journal<br \/>\n                                                                                                        <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"icon_open\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bmj.com\/channels\/research.dtl\"><br \/>\n                                                        <svg>\n                                                            <use href=\"https:\/\/medx.b-cdn.net\/tmpl\/v6\/img\/svg\/sprite.svg#icon_open\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\"\/>\n                                                        <\/svg><br \/>\n                                                    <\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>                                        <!-- print only --><\/p>\n<div class=\"d-none d-print-block\">\n<p>\n                                                 <strong>Citation<\/strong>:<br \/>\n                                                 Drinker&#8217;s sex plus brewing method may be key to coffee&#8217;s link to raised cholesterol (2022, May 10)<br \/>\n                                                 retrieved 10 May 2022<br \/>\n                                                 from https:\/\/medicalxpress.com\/<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>\/2022-05-drinker-sex-brewing-method-key.html<\/p>\n<p>                                            This document is subject to copyright.
