What it is

Coffee beans are the seeds of coffee cherries, small fruits from the Coffea plant, native to Ethiopia. The beans are typically roasted to develop their characteristic aroma and flavor before being ground for brewing.

Health notes

Coffee and its components have been extensively studied. The FDA considers coffee beans to be generally recognized as safe (GRAS). Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated coffee and its main active compounds, such as caffeine. Research suggests moderate coffee consumption may be associated with certain health benefits, but high intake can lead to negative effects like anxiety and sleep disturbances. Evidence on long-term health effects is ongoing and sometimes mixed.

Allergen info

Coffee beans are not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
