For the human body, drinking coffee can indeed bring three major benefits. People who usually like coffee may reap these benefits. Let's learn a trick or two.
First of all, caffeine in coffee can reduce insulin resistance, which is of great help to improve human blood sugar level and obesity. This benefit has also been confirmed by research. Drinking a cup of coffee every day can reduce the risk of diabetes by 7%. Coffee can protect the regulation function of β cells in pancreas on blood sugar, thus stabilizing blood sugar better.
Secondly, the research in BMC magazine also shows that drinking coffee can reduce the risk of liver disease, such as the risk of chronic liver disease by 265,438+0%, fatty liver by 20% and death risk of chronic liver disease by 49%. This is because polyphenols, chlorogenic acid, coffee bean alcohol and other substances in coffee are of great help to protect liver cells and improve liver function, which can indirectly prevent liver disease.
A study of 490,000 people in the United States also found that people who insist on drinking coffee every day reduce the risk of liver cancer by about 5%, while those who drink 3-4 cups of coffee may get more benefits.
The third benefit is actually to protect people's cranial nerves and prevent some neurodegenerative diseases. A study of 200,000 people in World Biopsychiatry shows that drinking 2-3 cups of coffee and ingesting about 400 mg of caffeine every day can reduce the suicide rate by 50%, and the incidence of Alzheimer's Harmo's disease can be greatly reduced after ingesting caffeine.
From these aspects, people who usually like to drink coffee can really gain a lot of benefits. However, the premise of these benefits is to drink coffee correctly. Remind many coffee lovers that there are many small details when drinking coffee. If you can master them, your health may benefit more easily.
First, coffee and instant coffee are not the same concept.
By coffee, we actually mean coffee without extra cream and sugar. The weight of each cup is about 140ml, and the coffee beans are about 10g. If we take the latte that people often drink as an example, a 400 ml latte contains about 200 mg of caffeine. Instant coffee often contains less caffeine, and many other syrups and creams are added, which will induce the human body to consume too much sugar and fat, not only failing to maintain health, but also harming the body.
The second detail is that the amount of coffee you drink should be strictly controlled.
Although drinking about 2-3 cups of coffee can bring many benefits to the human body, the caffeine intake in the whole day should be controlled as much as possible within 400 mg. Exceeding this weight may be counterproductive. Too much caffeine can stimulate people's brain, nerves and stomach, which is not good for health.
If you usually like to drink American espresso, latte and other flavors with high caffeine content, you should also reduce the amount of coffee you drink appropriately, and the caffeine content will be higher.
The third detail is not to drink coffee after 4 pm.
Many people have a high chance of working overtime and drinking coffee at night, and feel a little sleepy. Drinking a cup of coffee can refresh you when you can't hold it. But from a health point of view, after coffee enters the human body, it will keep the human body excited for about 3-4 hours. Drinking coffee after 4 pm will also make people excited and easily affect their sleep.
One trick is to drink coffee before lunch break. It will take some time to take effect after drinking coffee. This time is used for a nap, and after waking up from a nap, you can also avoid being sleepy in the afternoon.
The last detail is that coffee is not for everyone.
Besides pregnant women and children who are known to be unsuitable for drinking coffee, it is not recommended to drink coffee if there are problems such as gastrointestinal diseases and osteoporosis. Coffee will lead to excessive secretion of digestive juice and affect the absorption of calcium.
In addition, patients who are taking some drugs are not suitable for drinking coffee. The metabolic process of drugs may react with caffeine in human body, which affects the curative effect and is very unfavorable for treating diseases.
Generally speaking, drinking a cup of coffee every day is actually good for your health. But this benefit should also be based on the correct drinking method.
If you can find your own shortcomings from these four details and make up for them in time, maybe you can bring three benefits to your body because of drinking coffee, which is also very helpful for health preservation and disease prevention. Attention, coffee lovers. Although coffee is good, it is also important to choose the right way to drink it.
