Recent studies have shown that a morning cup of coffee does not invigorate (as we had hoped), but only relieves withdrawal symptoms.
After all, coffee is addictive. Even small but regular consumption contributes to this.
Different people have different pharmacological thresholds. That is why coffee can cause someone to feel energetic and full of energy, while in others it can cause excitement, pressure surges and vasoconstriction. But withdrawal symptoms manifest themselves in everyone. This includes decreased attention, drowsiness and decreased reaction.
Scientists have confirmed that frequent coffee drinkers and those who do not drink it react faster after drinking it, but it does not add to their mental acuity. The drink does not help to concentrate on the task.
An abnormal amount of coffee can increase heart rate, upset the rhythm, and can even be toxic. Therefore, moderation is needed in caffeine consumption.
The more thoroughly the coffee beans are roasted, the less caffeine they contain.
It is generally excreted slowly from the body of women taking hormonal pills, children and pregnant women, so its consumption should be reduced.
After all, before reaching the brain, caffeine enters the bloodstream, the liver. Some newborns have even been underweight due to their mothers' caffeine addictions.
But there is a lot of caffeine in a wide variety of products: canned drinks, ice cream, chocolate, tea.
Numerous cases confirm that energy drinks are dangerous for teenagers and young adults.
Caffeine slows down brain development during puberty and worsens mental health. Even adults who take energy drinks in combination with alcohol lose all control over themselves.
Currently, there is no information on the exact caffeine content on products. In Europe, they plan to label those drinks that contain too much of it with a special warning.
It is unlikely to die from caffeine, but it has already been proven that its immoderate consumption can provoke the most unpleasant problems in the body. So it is worth worrying about this and reducing your daily dose.
