Disputes about the dangers and benefits of coffee have been going on for a very long time. Once in Sweden in the 18th century, two brothers were imprisoned as punishment, and they gave one coffee, the other tea, and waited for their death. To everyone's surprise, they lived to be 80 years old. Coincidence or not, but disputes, as you know, continue to this day. So let's find out how this drink affects our body.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, this drink is appreciated for its taste and stimulating qualities. Most of all people drink coffee because it invigorates and gives strength during physical fatigue. Here his influence on a person turns out to be simply magical.
Step 2
Coffee also has a significant effect on the human central nervous system. And all because this drink contains such a plant alkaloid as caffeine. It is he who excites our nervous system, which ultimately leads to its normal operation.
Caffeine has also been shown to be excellent for drowsiness, lethargy, and apathy. It also helps to improve the functioning of the senses.
Step 3
It is good for people who are engaged in mental work to drink coffee. And all this is precisely because of the influence of this drink on the central nervous system. This has been scientifically proven and confirmed by the famous professor Ivan Petrovich Pavlov.
Step 4
Effectively affects coffee and the work of the gastrointestinal tract. It causes gastric secretion, due to which, after 20-30 minutes, the concentration of hydrochloric acid reaches its limit. All this helps to speed up the digestion of food. Only in no case should you drink coffee on an empty stomach. Here there will already be the opposite effect - the stomach is empty, which means that it has nothing to digest. This is how people most often earn themselves such a disease as an ulcer.
Step 5
The advantage of coffee is that it is similar to the effect of alcohol on the body. It has a warming and aphrodisiac quality. But coffee will not cause such sad consequences that alcohol can do. Therefore, it is better to invigorate coffee than alcohol.
Step 6
From the above, I think it became clear that this drink should not be consumed by people suffering from stomach ailments. They don't need to excite their stomach once again, especially if they already have high acidity. In this case, the coffee can be replaced with another coffee drink, for example, barley. You can also reduce the stimulating effect of coffee on the body by adding milk or cream to it. But these are not all contraindications. People who suffer from insomnia, hypertension, and also have disorders in the central nervous system should also not use this drink.
Step 7
To drink or not to drink? That is the question. Of course, this is a personal matter for everyone, but one thing can be said: if you are healthy and you like this drink, then you can and even need to use it, well, and if you have health problems, then drink coffee with extreme caution. Agree, the most important thing is the measure in everything.
