A group of dieticians were consulted by EatThis.com to give their take on coffee habits that could help you live a longer life.

Dieticians suggest drinking your coffee black, going easy on sweeteners, adding protein or mushroom powder to your drink, and skipping drinking out of disposable to-go cups.
