Is coffee good for lungs?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
From limited research done, coffee consumption was associated with some positive effects on the respiratory system. Few small studies have shown coffee was associated with reduction of asthma and coffee with natural honey was effective for persistent post-infectious cough. There was however limited available evidence to establish its effects.

Coffee and Lung Health:
- Coffee contains caffeine, which can have bronchodilator effects, potentially aiding in opening airways temporarily.
-
Moderation:
- For a 45-year-old male, moderate coffee consumption is generally safe and may offer slight benefits for lung function.
-
Considerations:
- Underlying Conditions: If there are lung issues like asthma or COPD, coffee might provide mild relief but should not replace treatments.
- Lifestyle Factors: Smoking cessation, exercise, and a healthy diet are more impactful on lung health than coffee.
-
Conclusion:
- Moderate coffee drinking is unlikely to harm lung health and might offer slight benefits. Consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice if there are specific concerns.
