Coffee was originally a drink for foreigners. Since coffee entered China, more and more people have fallen in love with it, and its consumption is increasing by 30% every year, which shows that the demand for coffee is still quite large.
You may not know these benefits of coffee!
1, has the function of losing weight.
Studies have shown that drinking coffee can accelerate the burning of fat because coffee contains caffeine and chlorogenic acid. Caffeine can accelerate the body's metabolism, help the pancreas secrete lipase, help decompose fat, and achieve the effect of burning fat. Chlorogenic acid is a kind of polyphenol, which can promote lipid metabolism, prevent fat from accumulating in the body and burn fat to lose weight.
Step 2 keep people awake
Many people think that coffee is a kind of "spiritual food" because it contains caffeine, which can keep people awake at all times. When a person feels tired, there will be an "adenosine" substance in the body, which will act on the neurotransmitter pathway of "adenosine receptor" in the brain, making people feel sleepy easily. Caffeine can prevent adenosine from causing drowsiness and keep people awake. So many people drink coffee to refresh themselves, so that they won't be tired at work and reduce the chance of making mistakes.
Drinking coffee is good for your skin.
Drinking coffee can accelerate metabolism, promote skin metabolism, help skin to expel aged keratin, and fade spots, dark circles and wrinkles. Coffee also has a strong antioxidant effect. Female friends can drink some coffee properly, which can maintain skin vitality, prevent cell aging and fight aging.
4, promote the digestion of the stomach
If you drink coffee on an empty stomach, it will stimulate gastric acid secretion and damage gastric mucosa, which is not conducive to gastrointestinal health. Therefore, if you want to drink coffee, try to reduce the amount of coffee on an empty stomach. You can choose to drink coffee after meals, which can scrape off excess oil in your body and promote digestion. At the same time, soluble fiber contained in coffee can promote intestinal peristalsis and improve constipation.
So, how much coffee do you drink a day?
Various studies on coffee intake have been done all over the world, and it is found that drinking more than 3 cups of coffee a day is better, while drinking more than 5 cups has no effect. Therefore, according to the data, it is more appropriate to drink 3-4 cups a day.
So, what kind of coffee should I drink?
Black coffee can be filtered black coffee, which is filtered with filter paper in the production process and does not contain serum cholesterol and diterpenoid caffeic alcohol. You can also choose black coffee. Although it was bitter at first, there was a sweet aftertaste after drinking it. Moreover, without adding pure black coffee, using natural coffee beans is harmless to the body and the benefits will be more obvious.
I suggest that you don't drink the three-in-one coffee that appears in the market, because it contains many additives, such as creamer and sugar. If you drink this coffee for a long time, it will do great harm to your health.
