The Effect of Caffeine and Coffee on Weight Loss

Weight loss is an obsession for many Americans. The prevalence of adults who are overweight is at an all-time high with the percentage currently hovering at 65 percent, of whom 30.5 percent are considered obese. Rates of weight gain and obesity are dangerously increasing in children as well. Carrying excess weight not only hastens early mortality, but being overweight is associated with many chronic diseases, including: diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and increased incidence of cancer. Research has found that caffeine and coffee negatively affect many of these health conditions that are prevalent in overweight people. Additionally, both caffeine and coffee contribute to increased appetite that thwarts the efforts of people on diets to stick to their regime.

Americans spend more than $33 billion annually on weight loss products and services. The popularity of nutritional supplements for weight-loss such as the FDA banned ephedra & caffeine diet pills and the newer weight-loss supplements that are rapidly filling the void left by ephedra, reflects the desperation of people attempting to lose weight.
