Coffee in Korea is a relatively new phenomenon. In the year 2000 the amount of coffeeshops were a shadow of 2010. That trend has only continued to today. Coffee is also more of a social/status thing there with coffee shops opening after the morning rush hour and closing later at night. Take a look at coffee shops in Seoul versus Starbucks in Seoul. You will find that Starbucks tend to be in wealthier areas. Third-wave coffee is had by hipsters, but the same green straw/cup = good is the same over there. I think income would be a significant confounder when it comes to coffee consumption in Korea. Like in North America, old people are more likely to drink instant.

Coffee-only instant coffee (powders or granules) normally comes in much bigger packages, for home use. 500g or in kgs. There are a few brands that sell individually made ones (kanu is my fav) but they aren’t cheap.

From the 2021 Korean study: "Last, due to the cross-sectional study design, the causality between coffee consumption or physical exercise and the occurrence of cancers could not be determined in the current study. This study was based on the self-reported cancer history; thus, the survival bias could not be excluded." So, correlation =/= causation. These studies are always very careful in their wording and the scope of their effect for this reason. Maybe the types of people who can afford to form coffee/tea rituals (both in the monetary and time senses) also live longer due to another third variable, such as, y'know, income, job, location, etc. Also, you don't need to buy sponsored coffee to build daily rituals, you could just, like, meditate for five minutes.

Just what i was saying... Well pretty much my point.... One of the problems i have with such reserches is just how many factors there are to account for... the idea that accounting for the sugars and other junk food people eat with their coffee is enought is insane... Becuse there's always another way.. another level of reasoning to add For example What if the kinds of people who drink coffe without sugar or cigarettes are the kinds of people who generally eat and live healthier... There are sooooo many factors and habits to consider What if the kinds of people that drink more cofee do so to wake up... becuee they're heavy sleeper/...love to sleep.... Which is extremly healthy... What if the people that drink more coffe correlates with more productivity aka make more emoney... (And we all knor the strong correlation of wealth and health...) And so on and on and on The point is that sure coffee could be beneficial but studies like that aren't perfect And it's good to consider everything If you want to live well snd grow old.. well then there are better alternatives such as for example snti oxident supplements... Turmeric fo give an example is an amazing spice with lots and lots and lots of heslth benefits... (But again there's sooo much to account for... The difference is that the effects are a lot more noricable quickly and most people don't consume all that much of the spice...)

It's weird that so many comments are suggesting that the benefits of coffee drinking are more due to socioeconomic status. I doubt anyone who's drinking 6 cups of coffee a day is going to Starbucks 6 times a day. They're probably mostly making their own. And coffee is super cheap when you make it yourself, under 10 cents a cup if you drink cheap crap, and even the fancier coffee in this ad is ~30 cents a cup. Lots of places in the world have even cheaper coffee. Sure, not everyone can afford coffee, but it's a pretty low economic barrier.

As much as I like that this video validates my caffeine addiction, I’m suspicious about the correlation between coffee-drinking and longer life. Coffee is not really a necessity - it can definitely _feel_ that way sometimes, but coffee is an expensively-produced luxury that is only able to be grown in a relatively small portion of the globe. Thus, populations with easily-accessible coffee likely already have other socioeconomic factors going for them that contribute to their longer lifespans, such as better health education, more money, and a generally more comfortable standard of living. At the very least, a lot of these factors seem too hopelessly entangled with each other to make a definitive claim that coffee is a contributing factor to a longer average lifespan. I know this video is an ad, but in my (not particularly valuable) opinion, it doesn’t really hold up to the intellectual rigor and care you give to the rest of your videos - even your other ads. It’s not particularly harmful or misleading, but I get the vibe that perhaps you weren’t able to add your normal amount of qualifying statements, details, or technicalities to this script, for whatever reason. Anyway, I could be wrong, and I’m certainly not going to stop watching your videos. Just wanted to give some honest feedback that I missed your typical attention to detail this time around.

@@shadow13151 My comment already pointed out a few confounding socioeconomic factors. Health education, diet, free time, work stress, exercise, occupational health hazards, sleep, and healthcare access are all impacted by income level. These factors are all potentially confounded with each other as well; for example, it’s likely that someone working two jobs would lack the free time during work hours to go see their doctor about something, even if they could afford to. While it is true that the developed world has coffee available in practically every grocery store, it’s far from the cheapest thing on my shopping list. It’s not inconceivable that it would be one of the first things to go if I needed to cut down on the weekly food budget. Alternatively, since I (along with many other regular coffee drinkers) am physically addicted to caffeine, I might purchase more junk food or bulk carbs than healthy foods to offset the cost, or I might purchase caffeinated soda to replace the coffee. Both of these are cheaper and decidedly unhealthier. Not to mention, this video seems to encourage quite a large consumption of coffee daily, which means that to see the purported benefits, you’d have to be able to afford to go through your bags of coffee faster. The UK study points out that instant coffee has a significantly weaker correlation with longevity than non-instant coffee. They reason that instant coffee has less of the antioxidants and other beneficial chemicals, but they fail to account for the demographics of instant coffee drinkers vs. non-instant, with the former being more likely to be older and/or poorer. They also report that non-instant coffee drinkers are more likely to have a university degree, which _is_ causally linked to higher income. However, this study does not report how it attempts to account for income level, if at all. The Korean study simply breaks up its sample (people over 40) into three different income levels. While this is a good start, it is unlikely to encompass the relationships between all of the variables I mentioned above. Additionally, the study only looked at the incidence of types of cancers - the result is a correlation between coffee consumption and decreased incidence of only a few types of cancers. They specifically say that they cannot establish a causal link based on their data. Furthermore, it’s improper to draw the conclusion “coffee makes you live longer” from a study that shows a slight preventative effect against just five types of cancer. My point to all of this is *not* that coffee is bad or classist or whatever. My point is that this video does not hold up to Adam’s usual standard of care given to scientific study. He might call it “journalistic integrity.” The conclusions you can and cannot draw from published data are usually quite nuanced, which is why we have the entire framework of statistics. It is, like, _the_ cardinal sin of statistics to equate correlation with causation, and in reading the studies, you should have seen that none of the language in any of them establishes a causal link between coffee consumption and longevity. The reality of the coffee-longevity link is probably a result of all of the factors mentioned in all of the studies, plus countless others that nobody has accounted for in their analysis yet. Such is the problem with studying something as vague as “longevity” - there’s so many different factors that go into everybody’s daily lives that it’s simply impossible to understand the cumulative health effects of everything we do. I’m curious about what was cleared up for you when you read the studies. Close reading of both the Korean and the UK studies doesn’t really support Adam’s conclusion here.

While being a huge fan of coffee (being Finnish it's almost mandatory) who drinks somewhere 3-12 cups a day, I'd like to mention few negative health outcomes that are associated with coffee and how to deal with them. 1) The caffeine in the coffee can trigger anxiety in people with anxiety disorders. Decaf coffee and/or small amounts is the best solution for this 2) Coffee can have an effect on blood pressure. However, this is not commonly associated with filter coffee, as it seems that the filter paper can remove the agent responsible for this. So french press users, be aware! 3) Coffee can spike up your blood sugar levels. It can cause a spike in blood insulin level when consumed with carbohydrate-containing food (e.g. porridge) that lasts for some time. However, eating some protein with coffee (cup of coffee and a boiled egg for example) can mitigate this. James Hoffman made a good video about this. 4) Caffeine and sleep. While there isn't many negative health outcomes that have been associated with drinking coffee, there are ton of negative outcomes from neglecting your sleep! It is important to know how your body responds to coffee and caffeine, and make sure that you get enough sleep. As Matthew Walker says; "The number of people who can survive on six hours of sleep or less without measurable impairment, rounded to a whole number and expressed as a per cent, is zero." Decaf is a good option, especially as there are now a number of good tasting decaf options

One needs to be extremely careful comparing correlation and causality. Suppose you look outside and see that everyone is carrying umbrellas, then it rains. Did the umbrellas cause the rain? No. Suppose you look at a dataset and see that coffee drinkers live longer. Is that because coffee causes long life? Maybe? Adam (who I love and will continue to watch!) was not being careful enough in distinguishing correlation (stuff happening at the same time) and causation (which in general requires a theoretical framework).

Yeah, studies have shown a correlation between light alcohol drinking and longevity but the cause is likely that light drinking is so pervasive in society that the group that abstains entirely from alcohol has a disproportionate number of people with underlying health concerns that motivate not drinking. A similar relationship is feasible for coffee, plenty of people are advised to avoid caffeine by their doctors. The anti-oxidant hypothesis is also something we should be skeptical of, largely because claims of anti-oxidant benefits are greatly overexaggerated and excess anti-oxidant consumption may actually increase instances of some cancers. Like most things in health the answer is never simple.

For example, the EFSA didn't allow the claim “Antioxidants in coffee helps protect our cells against free radicals.” with the reason “non-compliance with the Regulation because on the basis of the scientific evidence assessed, this claimed effect for this food has not been substantiated." in 2011.

I really appreciate how you are always very clear about the nature of your commercial ad content, Adam! I'm absolutely not a coffee drinker - I've had drip coffee, I've had espresso, I've had french press and percolator coffee, I've had coffee in the US and in Europe, and to me it all just tastes the same - sad, bitter bean water. So, with that being said, I very much don't trust these studies; it seems much, MUCH more likely to me that what real correlation exists here is between drinking lots of coffee and wealth/economic status, with the latter having a causative effect on longevity. I also always appreciate that you include your sources! Thanks to that, I can say that all of the papers you cited take various cohort studies (which the authors did not perform but were separately gathered for other research) as their data, and these kinds of broad cohort studies are notoriously problematic because they measure dozens, even hundreds of different factors for each participant. The problem is, with so many different factors measured and no scientific goal in mind with the original data gathering, every data measurement can be like performing a separate statistical test, which skyrockets your change of a Type 1 error (a "false positive"). These were the same sorts of studies that gave us "margarine is better for you than butter" and "eggs are good for you, now they're bad for you, now they're good for you." The long and short of it is that any correlation found is just as likely to be statistical noise as actual effect, so any effect found here demands far more rigorous testing before I would even contemplate giving them any credence. Case in point, the 2021 Korean study didn't just show that people who drank coffee lived longer - it showed that people who exercise for more than 150 minutes per week on average were MORE LIKELY to get gastric cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, thyroid cancer, and prostate cancer than those who didn't exercise at all. This means "exercise increases risk of colon cancer" is just as valid a takeaway from this study as "coffee makes you live longer."

Many viewers in this comments section have theorized that daily coffee drinkers, for a variety of reasons, tend to be wealthier and enjoy a more comfortable standard of living than the average person. This is probably a pretty important factor in determining one’s lifespan. I’ve also seen people guess that caffeine helps people avoid preventable accidents by increasing one’s alertness, and another guess that the diuretic effect of coffee makes people pee out more sodium, which, when consumed in excess, is a risk factor for heart disease. There is probably a grain of truth to many of these theories, including the one Adam posits, but I think it would be really difficult to test every single hypothesis for this kind of thing - the different variables are just too entangled with one another.

Yes, my family has a cabinet almost entirely devoted to tea. Two shelves of tea itself, one shelf with stuff to put into tea (honey of a few kinds, if I'm feeling adventurous, agave nectar or mint syrup, a tin of sugar cubes, etc), and a shelf that contains tea preparation and storage tools, including two large insulated bottles with a pour spout, three thermoses for tea on the go, a few mugs of varying sizes, and of course tea infusers of a few styles for loose-leaf tea (personally not a fan, but my family likes it so it's there).

some less 'pro coffee' explanations for the coffee longevity studies are that people with preexisting heart conditions, high blood pressure, and any underlying dysautonomia, all risk factors for poor health outcomes, are less likely to drink that much coffee to begin with. In fact in countries like the US, where MOST adults drink coffee, people who DON'T are often either SUPER healthy or already have a health reason not to. Another US culture centric coffee longevity has less to do with coffee than with culture. Coffee is big among teetotalers and people who religiously do not drink. It is also in many places around the world an expressly communal beverage, and we know community also makes you live longer. Similarly, its associated with work culture, and if we are looking at people in their 40s, those who work (but not overwork) especially in "office culture" jobs are usually more stable financially and socially than those that don't.

Just playing devils advocate here: coffee is the second most traded good in the world, it’s highly accessible yet it’s not exactly the cheapest beverage to drink if your wanting the good stuff. Studies have shown that poor and impoverished people tend to buy food with the goal of satiating hunger while neglecting nutrition, because it’s cheap. So coffee, being a long term expensive morning ritual and not exactly needed, will probably not be bought by those who are just trying to get by. Basically: if you can afford to constantly drink coffee, you can probably afford better food and maybe even have better health care. Just a thought, I very well could be wrong.

Adam, I know that you enjoy the coffee you're currently drinking and know this, but please invest in a burr grinder. It's so easy to adjust the flavor profile with one and get even more out of your coffee. Something cheap like the Baratza Encore is plenty good and would definitely improve the quality of your coffee. Though, I guess I'm just a guy not in his kitchen not with a camera, so you really shouldn't listen to me...

Great video. I heard facts like this from a few videos like Healthcare Triage and it blew my mind. Whenever I mention that coffee is actually quite good for you and better even than tea, people frown and scoff at me (especially tea drinkers). A lot of people are still completely convinced it's an unhealthy vice. I know people who try so hard to cut it out of their diet like it's cigarettes and I'm like "why bother if you really like it?"

Should probably watch the video before commenting, friend. Adam mentions that the studies he's referencing indicate that the effects aren't related to caffeine - you get the same results from decaf. The effects appear to be from chemical compounds in the coffee itself. It's not due to the caffeine. If anything, excess caffeine consumption is likely linked to negative outcomes. There's nothing wrong with a small amount of caffeine, even consumed habitually, but modern westerners probably consume far too much. But how else are we supposed to remain effective when we're worked too many hours for too many days?

I think it also has something to do that coffee is a diuretic and makes you pee more. Peeing makes you get rid of extra fluid and sodium (which we eat a lot) so it helps with high blood pressure (which we collectively suffer from more because of the sodium).

@@franciscofigari6171 could do that too. Should probably do that. These studies are usually comparing non-coffee drinkers to coffee drinkers. So the unanswered question is what are these people drinking instead of coffee? Usually nothing. Or something else other than water. I.e. Coke, sprite, vitamin water, tea, juice etc. Nothing wrong with tea but considering how often people brew tea. They are not drinking their recommended 3liters per day via tea. Fact is that most people are also chronically dehydrated. So please prioritise drinking water before coffee or anything else.
