Novo estudo revela benefícios do café para o microbioma e o humor

Um estudo recente descobriu benefícios adicionais do café para a saúde, incluindo seus efeitos sobre o microbioma, a inflamação e o humor. A pesquisa mostra que o consumo regular influencia o eixo intestino-cérebro, sendo que até mesmo a versão descafeinada oferece vantagens. Essas descobertas destacam interações que vão além das propriedades estimulantes da cafeína.

Pesquisadores identificaram novos mecanismos pelos quais o café promove a saúde. O estudo demonstra como o consumo regular de café modifica o microbioma, reduz a inflamação e influencia positivamente o humor. Isso ocorre por meio do eixo intestino-cérebro, uma rede de comunicação bidirecional que liga o sistema digestivo à atividade cerebral, revelando uma interação complexa que se estende além dos conhecidos efeitos estimulantes da cafeína. Até mesmo o café descafeinado proporciona essas vantagens, de acordo com as descobertas publicadas antes da data de hoje.

Researchers at APC Microbiome Ireland at University College Cork report that early-life exposure to a high-fat, high-sugar diet altered feeding behavior and appetite-related brain pathways in mice into adulthood, even after the animals returned to a standard diet and normal body weight. The team also found that a specific Bifidobacterium strain and a prebiotic fiber mix helped mitigate some of these long-term effects.
