Drinking coffee has been found to affect certain areas in the brain. A recent study found that drinking coffee decreased connectivity in the posterior DMN, associated with self-consciousness and memory. However, it increased connectivity in the higher visual and RECN network nodes, which are associated with cognitive control and visual imagery. This effect was not solely due to caffeine intake, suggesting that other components of coffee intake may also play a role. However, the study only looked at resting-state brain connectivity, and further research is needed to fully understand the effects of coffee on the brain.
