Hot coffee provides more benefits than cold, study says
A new study reveals that hot coffee provides 50% more antioxidants than cold brew.

Bummer news for people who like to cool down with a cold brew.

A new study reveals hot coffee has 50% more antioxidants.

A Cleveland Clinic doctor points out that most of coffee's benefits you hear about come from antioxidants.

He says it's healthier to brew your coffee hot and then pour it over ice.

Cream, sugar and syrups also wipe out health benefits in a hurry.

The doctor says black coffee is best - and also better for your finances, which can help with stress levels.
