Numerous studies have cited coffee as a major — and in some cases, the primary — dietary source of antioxidants for its subjects. How it works: Antioxidants fight inflammation, an underlying cause of many chronic conditions, including arthritis, atherosclerosis and many types of cancer. They also neutralize free radicals, which occur naturally as a part of everyday metabolic functions, but which can cause oxidative stress that leads to chronic disease.
