Abstract
Coffee, as the most popular beverage, contains a large number of bioactive compounds, particularly caffeine and chlorogenic acids, which have an impact on metabolism. It is widely known that black coffee can aid in weight management, and current research supports this claim through various mechanisms. This paper explores the complex relationship between coffee consumption and weight management, focusing on how bioactive compounds in coffee, particularly caffeine and chlorogenic acids, influence metabolic efficiency, appetite regulation, and body composition. Research suggests that coffee can enhance energy expenditure and fat oxidation, thereby supporting stable body weight management. Additionally, coffee's impact on glucose metabolism and nutrient absorption may play a role in modulating insulin sensitivity and overall metabolic health. The influence of coffee on gut microbiota is also examined, highlighting its potential to improve digestive health and nutrient utilization. This review synthesizes current findings to provide a comprehensive understanding of how regular coffee consumption can contribute to effective weight management strategies.
