• Abstract:

  Coffee is traded and consumed daily by millions of people around the world. However, despite its great popularity, little is known about its impact on blood pressure variation, given that there are numerous factors that can mask or distort the findings. Recently, many studies have been carried out in order to investigate whether there is, in fact, any association between coffee consumption and changes in blood pressure. A literature review was carried out in the PubMed database with the aim of analyzing more accurately the results obtained in the works carried out by different researchers. From the information gathered, it was observed that most studies indicate that there is no direct relationship between coffee consumption and hypertension and that many others do not show statistical significance, which corroborates the need for further studies to be carried out so that there is a more reliable correlation.
