The Truth About Coffee Doctors Rarely Explain
Coffee is one of the most beloved beverages in the world — and one of the most misunderstood. In this episode of Chasing Eden, host Caroline Thompson explores coffee’s fascinating journey from ancient discovery to modern daily ritual, uncovering why it has inspired devotion, debate, and scientific curiosity for centuries.We dive into what today’s leading health voices — including Dr. Axe, Dr. Berg, Dr. Huberman, Dr. Gundry, Dave Asprey, and Gary Brecka — say about coffee’s potential benefits and pitfalls. From antioxidants and polyphenols to caffeine timing, gut health, sleep, inflammation, and stress, this conversation brings clarity to the question: Is coffee actually good for you? And if so, how do you drink it wisely?You’ll also learn who tends to thrive with coffee, who may need to be cautious, how quality and brewing methods matter more than most people realize, and how to enjoy coffee in a way that supports your body rather than depletes it. This episode isn’t about rules — it’s about awareness, balance, and choosing habits that truly serve your health.

00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:25.879
Back to Chasing Eden, where we begin to rediscover our
2
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:30.559
body's divine design. I'm your host, Carolyn Thompson. Thank you
3
00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:34.399
for joining me today. Let's talk about coffee, the drink
4
00:00:34.439 --> 00:00:38.399
that somehow became both a comfort and a controversy, a
5
00:00:38.439 --> 00:00:42.479
morning hug and a medical debate, a ritual, and for
6
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:47.200
many people, a daily necessity. Coffee has this unique ability
7
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:51.679
to feel personal. It's not just a beverage. It's a moment,
8
00:00:52.159 --> 00:00:55.359
it's a mood. It's the pause before the day starts.
9
00:00:55.399 --> 00:01:00.359
Talking back, But coffee didn't start out as a lie
10
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:04.079
with oat milk and a motivational quote. It started out
11
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:08.760
as something much older, more like discovery than invention. One
12
00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:12.799
of the most famous origin stories begins in Ethiopia, the
13
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:17.480
tale of a goat herder noticing his goats acting unusually
14
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:21.640
energized after eating bright red berries from a certain plant.
15
00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:26.400
People have told versions of that story for generations. Whether
16
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:30.439
every detail is historically perfect, it does capture something true
17
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:35.640
about how humans often discover what helps them by watching nature,
18
00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:40.920
noticing patterns, and paying attention to how the body responds.
19
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:47.519
From Ethiopia, a coffee's journey is closely tied to Yemen,
20
00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:52.719
and the broader Arab world. Yemen becomes important not just
21
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:56.000
as a stop along the road, but as a place
22
00:01:56.040 --> 00:02:02.439
where coffee was cultivated, used, and woven into culture, especially
23
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:08.000
in settings where wakefulness and focus mattered. There are historical
24
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:11.199
accounts of coffee being used to support late night devotions
25
00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:15.360
and long periods of study in prayer. Over time, the
26
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:18.759
coffee didn't just move as a product, It moved as
27
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:26.240
an experience. Then something fascinating happened. Coffee houses began to
28
00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:29.919
emerge not just as places to grab a drink, but
29
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:34.960
as places to talk, to debate, to learn, to exchange ideas.
30
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:39.000
You can almost imagine it. The warm air, the sound
31
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:42.879
of conversation, the sense that the mind is suddenly awake
32
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:48.759
and ready to engage. These coffee houses became social engines.
33
00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:55.039
As coffee spread along trade routes, the Ottoman Empire became
34
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:58.400
one of the pivotal forces in moving coffee outward into
35
00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:02.879
broader Europe. Coffee wasn't just traveling in bags. It was
36
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:09.039
traveling in habits, in rituals, in culture, in the idea
37
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:13.039
that a beverage could keep you alert and mentally sharp.
38
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:17.639
In our home, we have multiple ways of making coffee.
39
00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:21.319
We are really really into it. I've got a Turkish
40
00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:24.879
coffee pot, a little copper one that sits on the stovetop.
41
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:27.719
I like to have coffee so many different ways. We've
42
00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:30.199
got an Italian big O Lotti I think it's called,
43
00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:33.360
and it makes a little espresso on the stovetop. And
44
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:37.879
then we've got this itally thing from coffee bean and
45
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:43.719
tea leaf on the counter. I've got a Gotcha Macha master,
46
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:46.520
which is like I believe, a Swedish way of making coffee.
47
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:49.120
It's like a drip coffee. You make a whole pot
48
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.120
of drip coffee. It's kind of ugly looking. It looks
49
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:55.439
like a science experiment. So we're really into coffee over
50
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:58.159
in our home, and we have so many different types
51
00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:02.680
of coffee. We're a big time coffee lovers in this house. Now. Eventually,
52
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:04.840
coffee reached Europe in a big way. As you know,
53
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:09.319
Venice in particular becomes a key entry point. One historical
54
00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:12.560
account notes that the first European coffee house opened in
55
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:17.160
Venice in sixteen forty five, and from there the practice spread.
56
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:22.360
This is where coffee's story starts. Feeling strangely, modern Europeans
57
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:27.240
were captivated and also suspicious. Some people were excited about it,
58
00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:31.920
others feared it. Coffee has always had that split personality
59
00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:35.720
in the public imagination. This is amazing on one side,
60
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:38.920
and this might be dangerous on the other. It's the
61
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:41.759
same argument we still have today, just wearing different clothes.
62
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:47.240
But what helped coffee win over so many cultures is
63
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:50.519
that it didn't dule the mind like alcohol can. It
64
00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:54.639
sharpened it. It didn't pull people downward. It lifted them
65
00:04:54.639 --> 00:05:01.160
into conversation, work, study, and creativity. Many historians argue that
66
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:05.279
coffee helped shape the intellectual life of Europe simply because
67
00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:10.199
it supported wakefulness and thinking, and coffee houses became centers
68
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:15.959
of ideas. Now fast forward, and coffee isn't just a
69
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:21.079
cultural artifact anymore. It's one of the most studied beverages
70
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:25.920
on the planet. And part of why is simple. Coffee
71
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:30.160
contains more than caffeine. It contains a huge number of
72
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:37.439
bioactive compounds, polyphenols and antioxidants that researchers and nutrition experts
73
00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:43.720
keep circling back to. Now that being said, coffee's history
74
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:48.199
also teaches us something. The way coffee is consumed changes
75
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:52.959
what coffee becomes in Yemen. It wasn't a dessert drink
76
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:57.040
in coffee houses. It wasn't blended with a mountain of
77
00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:02.160
sugar like we have now at Starbucks. Historically, coffee was
78
00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:07.199
closer to a strong, simple beverage used in a deliberate way.
79
00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:12.079
And that's where we begin to connect history to health.
80
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:16.920
Because if coffee is both ancient and modern, both beloved
81
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:21.360
and debated, then maybe the honest answer isn't coffee is
82
00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:25.920
good or coffee is bad. Maybe the honest answer is
83
00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:30.759
coffee is powerful, and what matters is how you relate
84
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:35.040
to it. We're going to talk about that next, types
85
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:39.480
of coffee quality differences and why some people thrive on
86
00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:43.800
it while others feel anxious, inflamed, and exhausted. When we
87
00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:46.800
come back, we'll talk about the different types of coffee
88
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:52.680
light roast, dark roast, espresso, cold brew, and why quality
89
00:06:52.720 --> 00:07:05.360
matters more than most people realize. Welcome back. Let's talk
90
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:10.800
coffee types because coffee is like saying music, it's not
91
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:17.000
one thing. It's a category with flavors, intensities, and effects.
92
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:21.839
The first big divider is roast level, light roast and
93
00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:26.279
dark roast. Now, people often assume dark roast is stronger,
94
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:31.439
but it's more complicated than that. Dark roasts can taste stronger,
95
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:35.879
more spoky, more bold because the bean has been roasted
96
00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:40.800
longer and those flavors deepen, But caffeine content can actually
97
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:45.160
be slightly higher in the lighter roasts by volume, because
98
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:50.439
longer roasting can reduce caffeine somewhat. What matters more than caffeine, though,
99
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:56.199
is what the roast does to acidity, compounds, and your digestion.
100
00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.279
This is where the coffee debate starts to get real
101
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:04.879
for people. Some people love coffee, but it doesn't love
102
00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:10.199
them back. They drink it and they feel jittery, anxious, nauseated,
103
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:17.600
wired but tired, heart racing, stomach burning, and they assume
104
00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:22.959
the problem is caffeine. Sometimes it is, but often the
105
00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:29.240
real problem is quality and delivery method. One major quality
106
00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:32.120
issue that gets talked about in the health world is
107
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:38.679
mold and mico toxins in poorly stored coffee. Dave Aspbury
108
00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:42.080
has made this a central theme in his coffee messaging,
109
00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:47.039
that you want coffee that is mold tested, because some
110
00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:54.440
coffee can be contaminated depending on how it's processed and stored. Now,
111
00:08:55.360 --> 00:08:59.679
not everyone reacts to this the same way. But that's
112
00:08:59.720 --> 00:09:04.399
the point point. Coffee isn't a universal experience. People with
113
00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:09.639
certain sensitivities can feel profoundly different when they switch from cheap, stale,
114
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:14.639
poorly sourced coffee to a cleaner, better sourced option. That's
115
00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:17.919
me when I switch to organic coffee, and I know
116
00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:21.720
which ones work for me best, I started to get
117
00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:25.960
better results with my coffee. So there's the being quality question,
118
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:31.639
and then there's the brewing method. A surprisingly modern health point,
119
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:37.679
Unfiltered coffee like French press or other espresso styles, contains
120
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:43.679
dieterpenes compounds like caffastall that can raise LDL cholesterol in
121
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:49.720
some people. Paper filtered coffee can reduce those dieterpenes. This
122
00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:54.480
is why some nutrition experts recommend paper filters if cholesterol
123
00:09:54.720 --> 00:10:00.000
is a concern. Now espresso deserves its own moment, because
124
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.879
because espresso has this reputation of being hardcore, but in
125
00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:09.679
some ways it can be gentler, smaller volume, more concentrated,
126
00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:13.720
and for some people, less gut irritation than sipping a big,
127
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:17.720
acidic drip coffee on an empty stomach. If you're someone
128
00:10:17.720 --> 00:10:22.200
who gets that coffee stomach, espresso or coldbrew might be
129
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:26.559
a better route. Cold brew is another interesting one. Because
130
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:30.679
it's brewed with cold water over a long period, it
131
00:10:30.759 --> 00:10:34.639
tends to be less acidic and often easier on reflux
132
00:10:34.679 --> 00:10:38.039
prone stomachs. This is why people who can't do coffee
133
00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:41.679
sometimes can do coldbrew. And I have to be honest,
134
00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:45.039
I went through a period where, because of my digestion issues,
135
00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:48.440
every time I drink coffee, I got terrible heartburn. And
136
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:51.399
I switched to cold brew and discovered that I wasn't
137
00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:53.720
getting heartburn with the cold brew. So if you're one
138
00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:55.519
of those people who really really wants to drink your
139
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:58.639
coffee and you just can't figure it out, maybe colbrew
140
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:02.799
is your option. You might try it. Now, let's talk
141
00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:06.720
about what people put in their coffee, because honestly, this
142
00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:10.679
is where coffee's reputation gets damaged. Black coffee is one thing.
143
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:16.120
A coffee milkshake with sugar syrup and whipped cream is another.
144
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:20.840
Many of the studies and positive associations with coffee are
145
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:25.919
about coffee itself, not dessert beverages. And that's not about judgment,
146
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:31.240
it's just chemistry. There was a recent summary that highlighted
147
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:35.480
common habits that reduces coffee's benefits like drinking it too late,
148
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:41.080
drinking it immediately on waking, using coffee as a meal replacement,
149
00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:46.120
or loading it with sugar. This is where doctor acts
150
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:51.000
framing Doctor axis framing can be really helpful. On his site,
151
00:11:51.039 --> 00:11:56.720
he talks about coffee having potential benefits cognitive support, performance,
152
00:11:57.159 --> 00:12:00.960
liver support, and more. But also he knows downsides for
153
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:06.600
some people like anxiety, digestive issues, dependency, and that certain
154
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:11.360
groups should be cautious. So here's the heart of segment two.
155
00:12:12.120 --> 00:12:16.679
Coffee isn't simply healthy or unhealthy. Coffee is a substance
156
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:21.000
with benefits that can be either amplified or undermined based
157
00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:25.480
on things like the bean quality, the brewing method, what
158
00:12:25.559 --> 00:12:28.919
you add to it, the time you drink it, and
159
00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:32.080
your body's sensitivity. And now we're ready for the most
160
00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:37.639
practical part, timing and dosach. That's where doctor Huberman's guidance
161
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:42.200
has become very influential. When we come back, we'll get
162
00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:45.759
practical when to drink coffee, how much is too much,
163
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:49.559
and how to avoid the crash using timing advice made
164
00:12:49.600 --> 00:13:06.399
popular by doctor Huberman. Welcome back. If you only change
165
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:09.720
one thing about your coffee habit, timing might be the
166
00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:13.799
best place to start, because timing is where coffee flips
167
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:19.120
from being a support to being a stressor. Doctor Andrew
168
00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:24.639
Huerman has been very consistent about this idea. Delaying caffeine
169
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:28.080
for about ninety to one hundred and twenty minutes after
170
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:32.960
waking can help avoid the afternoon crash and support better
171
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:39.120
energy stability. Here's the simple human reason that makes sense
172
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:43.879
even if you've never read a science paper in your life.
173
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:48.000
Your body wakes up with its own natural wake up chemistry.
174
00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:52.679
Cortisol rises in the morning. It's part of your built
175
00:13:52.679 --> 00:13:57.879
in alertness system. If you slam caffeine right on top
176
00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:01.879
of that, some people feel fine, but many people end
177
00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:05.399
up with a later crash and need for more caffeine
178
00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:11.720
to keep going. Houberman also talks about caffeine timing relative
179
00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:16.080
to sleep. Many people do better avoiding caffeine within ten
180
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:19.799
to twelve hours of bedtime. For some eight hours is enough.
181
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:25.120
The point is that caffeine can disrupt sleep architecture, even
182
00:14:25.159 --> 00:14:28.799
when you feel like you fell asleep fine. Now here's
183
00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:33.840
where coffee becomes one of those quiet dominoes. If coffee
184
00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:38.559
pushes your bedtime later or reduces your sleep quality, then
185
00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:41.399
you wake up more tired, then you need more coffee.
186
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:45.919
Then you're more stressed, then you're more inflamed, and suddenly
187
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:49.919
coffee isn't the hero any more. It's part of a cycle.
188
00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:56.559
So timing matters and dosage matters. Most health guidance still
189
00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:02.600
lands around moderate coffee intake for most adults. In mainstream summaries,
190
00:15:02.639 --> 00:15:05.960
you'll often see four hundred milligrams of caffeine a day
191
00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:09.279
as a common upper limit for healthy adults, roughly for
192
00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:16.320
eight ounce coffees, though sensitivity varies widely. This is where
193
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:19.559
Gary Brecka's style of messaging resonates with a lot of people.
194
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:25.240
He emphasizes that genetics and metabolism matter. Some people are
195
00:15:25.360 --> 00:15:30.279
fast caffeine metabolizers and coffee feels like clean focus. Others
196
00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:33.919
are slow metabolizers and the same amount of coffee feels
197
00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:37.720
like anxiety in a cup. That's such an important point
198
00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:42.039
because it removes shame from the conversation. If coffee makes
199
00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:45.039
you feel bad, it doesn't mean you're weak. It might
200
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:49.279
mean your body processes it differently. Now, let's weave in
201
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:54.399
doctor Gundry and polyphenols. Gundry has written about the polyphenols
202
00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:59.200
and coffee compounds like chlorogenic acid, and frames coffee as
203
00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:02.080
potentially ben a official for many people because of these
204
00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:06.480
bioactive compounds. He's also pointed to the light roast as
205
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:11.000
a way to preserve the polyphenols. Now, I want to
206
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:15.360
be careful here. Experts don't always agree on every point,
207
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:19.440
but where there's overlap, we can draw a wise middle path.
208
00:16:19.519 --> 00:16:24.279
And the overlap is this. If you choose high quality coffee,
209
00:16:24.919 --> 00:16:28.679
avoid excess sugar, drink it at a time that respects
210
00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:33.559
your sleep, and pay attention to your body's response, coffee
211
00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:36.799
becomes far more likely to be helpful rather than harmful.
212
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:41.480
This is also where decaf deserves a better reputation. Many
213
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:45.639
people assume decaf is pointless, but decalf still contains many
214
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:50.679
of the beneficial compounds associated with coffee without the caffeine intensity.
215
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:56.960
Some summaries note decaf retains many anti inflammatory compounds, So
216
00:16:57.039 --> 00:16:59.759
if you love coffee but caffeine makes you edgy or
217
00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:03.519
dis reps your sleep, decaf can be a smart compromise,
218
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:09.720
especially in the afternoon. And one more practical piece, don't
219
00:17:09.839 --> 00:17:13.720
use coffee as a meal replacement. It's a common habit
220
00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:19.200
and it backfires if coffee suppresses appetite and you skip food,
221
00:17:19.880 --> 00:17:22.279
you could end up with blood sugar crashes later on,
222
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:26.960
which makes you crave sugar and more caffeine. It's not discipline,
223
00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:31.839
it's biology. So coffee is best used like a supporting actor,
224
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:35.720
not the main character. Which brings us to the last segment.
225
00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:39.279
Who should drink it, who should avoid it, and how
226
00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:42.680
to choose the best coffee in a way that's realistic.
227
00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:46.480
When we come back, we'll finish with the real world guidance.
228
00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:50.119
Who should lean into coffee, who should be cautious, what
229
00:17:50.240 --> 00:17:53.640
best coffee actually means, and how to make this a
230
00:17:53.759 --> 00:18:10.519
life giving habit. Welcome back to our final segment. This
231
00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:13.000
is where we put the pieces together and answer the
232
00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:19.599
questions people actually live with. First, who should consume coffee?
233
00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:23.119
If you generally do well with caffeine, meaning you drink
234
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:26.920
coffee and feel focused, steady, and fine, you're probably someone
235
00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:30.839
who can enjoy coffee As a net positive for many people,
236
00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:35.960
coffee can support alertness and cognitive performance, mood and motivation,
237
00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:42.519
exercise performance, and, according to many broad summaries, potential protective
238
00:18:42.519 --> 00:18:48.359
associations with cardiometabolic and liver outcomes when consumed moderately and
239
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:55.839
without excess sugar. Doctor ax As, writing, for example, frames
240
00:18:55.880 --> 00:18:59.920
coffee as something that can support cognitive function and performance
241
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:05.839
for many people with the important qualifier moderation and individual tolerance.
242
00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:12.160
Doctor Gundry's angle often emphasizes polyphenols, the plant compounds that
1
00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:25.879
2
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:30.559
