According to Veena V, Chief Clinical Dietician, Aster Whitefield Hospital, Bengaluru, coffee can interfere with the absorption of certain nutrients, particularly iron. This is primarily due to compounds in coffee called polyphenols, which can bind to iron, making it harder for your body to absorb. (Source: Freepik)

Vitamin D absorption: Caffeine can also potentially interfere with vitamin D absorption, but the extent of this impact is still under research. (Source: Freepik)

Diuretic Effect: Coffee's diuretic effect can lead to increased urination, potentially causing the loss of water-soluble vitamins like B vitamins and vitamin C. (Source: Freepik)
