Effect of coffee nutraceutical components and caffeine on energy regulation and exercise performance

Abstract

Coffee, which is one of the most consumed beverages in the world, is a functional product that is effective on metabolism with its nutraceutical components, antioxidants, and caffeine. Caffeine, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, and ferulic acid, which are the components of coffee, have effects such as reducing the risk of depression, providing alertness, improving emotions, and mood. With its high caffeine content, coffee is also used as an appetite suppressant in treating obesity with its thermogenic feature. Caffeine is considered an ergogenic support source for athletes due to the biochemical mechanisms it creates in the body. This review explains coffee nutraceutical components and their effects on the metabolic effect of caffeine, energy regulation, and exercise performance.
