Nautilus · By Jake Currie ·
The Brief · written from 2 sources
- A study of 61 healthy adults in Denmark found the small intestine was more acidic in people who often drank coffee.
- Coverage reports coffee drinkers show differences deep inside the gut, beyond the familiar urge to use the bathroom after coffee.
- Nautilus coverage of the same topic is brief and offers little detail beyond a reassurance that coffee's effect on the gut is good.
Why it matters
The findings describe a measurable difference in small-intestine acidity linked to habitual coffee drinking, which adds to understanding of how diet relates to gut physiology.
