Study Finds Regular Coffee Boosts Gut Diversity and Motility

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen reported that habitual coffee drinkers exhibit lower small-intestine acidity, increased colon contractions, and greater gut microbiome diversity. Earlier coverage by Newsweek and Gizmodo described the same study, noting that ingestible sensors confirmed stronger colon activity and that the health implications of these changes remain uncertain.
