So, John, we all know that coffee helps us stay awake, especially when we're feeling tired.

John，我們都知道咖啡能幫助我們保持清醒，尤其在疲累的時候。

But what are some other benefits that coffee brings to the table?

Yes, coffee is most famous for its ability to keep us alert, thanks to caffeine.

沒錯，咖啡最有名的就是靠咖啡因讓我們保持清醒。

For example, did you know that coffee is packed with antioxidants?

例如，你知道咖啡富含抗氧化物嗎？

Antioxidants are like little bodyguards for your cells.

抗氧化物就像是保護細胞的小保鑣。

They help protect your body from damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals.

它們能保護身體免於自由基造成的傷害。

Coffee is actually one of the largest sources of antioxidants in many people's diets,

其實咖啡是許多人飲食中最大的抗氧化物來源之一，

especially if they don't eat a lot of fruits and vegetables.

尤其是那些水果和蔬菜吃得不多的人。

So coffee is like a healthy drink in disguise?

所以咖啡其實是偽裝成普通飲料的健康飲品？

Of course, like anything, it's important to drink it in moderation.

But if you enjoy your coffee without too much sugar or cream, it can really benefit your body.

如果你喝咖啡時不加太多糖或奶精，對身體真的有好處。

For example, some studies have shown that drinking coffee can lower the risk of certain diseases,

例如，有研究顯示喝咖啡能降低某些疾病的風險，

like Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's.

像是帕金森氏症和阿茲海默症。

It sounds like coffee is good for your brain, too.

Caffeine, the main ingredient in coffee, helps improve brain function.

咖啡中的咖啡因能幫助提升大腦功能。

It can make you more alert, help you focus, and even improve your mood.

它能讓你更清醒、更專注，甚至改善心情。

That's why many people reach for a cup of coffee when they're working or studying.

這也是為什麼很多人在工作或讀書時會喝咖啡。

I remember during my college days, coffee was my best friend during late-night study sessions.

我記得大學熬夜讀書時，咖啡就是我最好的朋友。

I think a lot of people can relate to that.

Coffee has also been shown to reduce the risk of depression in some people.

咖啡也被證實能降低某些人罹患憂鬱症的風險。

There's something about that warm cup of coffee that lifts your spirits, especially on a tough day.

那杯溫熱的咖啡，特別是在艱難的一天，真的能提振心情。

就像一個小小的情緒助推器，對吧？

Coffee can also be good for your physical health.

Drinking coffee has been linked to a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

喝咖啡與降低第二型糖尿病風險有關。

It seems that coffee helps your body use insulin better, which helps regulate your blood sugar levels.

咖啡似乎能幫助身體更有效利用胰島素，穩定血糖。

That's so important, especially with how many people around the world are affected by diabetes.

這真的很重要，尤其現在這麼多人受糖尿病影響。

It's incredible how something as simple as coffee can help.

沒想到這麼簡單的咖啡能有這麼大的幫助。

And here's another benefit that might surprise you.

Wow, John, I had no idea coffee could do all that.

Well, like I said earlier, moderation is key.

就像我之前說的，關鍵在於適量。

Too much coffee can lead to problems like insomnia, nervousness, or even an upset stomach.

喝太多咖啡可能會造成失眠、緊張或腸胃不適。

And of course, if you add too much sugar or cream, you're adding extra calories and fat, which isn't great for your health.

而且如果加太多糖或奶精，也會攝取過多熱量和脂肪。

So it's best to enjoy coffee in a balanced way.

所以最好的方式就是均衡地享用咖啡。

I think it's time for a little fun fact, don't you?

我想來個有趣的小知識，如何？

Did you know that coffee is the second most traded commodity in the world after oil?

你知道嗎？咖啡是全球交易量第二大的商品，僅次於石油。

Coffee is loved all over the world, and people drink about 2.25 billion cups of coffee every day.

全世界每天大約喝掉 22.5 億杯咖啡。

It's amazing to think that something so simple brings so many people together across the globe.

很難想像這麼簡單的東西能把全世界連結在一起。

And it shows just how important coffee is not only to our daily routines,

也顯示咖啡不只影響生活習慣，

Well, John, this has been such an informative conversation.

John，今天的對話真的收穫滿滿。

I think I've learned more about coffee today than I ever imagined.

我學到的咖啡知識比想像中多太多了。

Coffee is definitely more than just a quick energy boost.

咖啡真的不只是短暫的提神飲料。

When enjoyed in moderation, it can be part of a healthy lifestyle.

只要適量，它可以成為健康生活的一部分。

So to all our listeners out there, next time you enjoy your morning coffee, remember, you're not just waking up.

所以各位聽眾，下次喝咖啡時，記得你不只是醒來而已。

You're also doing something good for your body and mind.

Just don't forget to drink it in moderation.

And for those who aren't coffee drinkers, there's no pressure.

至於不喝咖啡的人，也不用有壓力。

And there are plenty of other ways to stay healthy.
