First, let's learn about the ingredients of coffee. There is not much difference between freshly ground coffee and instant coffee. Usually in coffee, there are fatty substances, such as coffee bean alcohol and caffeic alcohol; There are also some alkaloid compounds such as caffeine and theobromine, as well as some protein, vitamins and polyphenols.

Many people say that instant coffee is very harmful to health. The main reason is that instant coffee is obtained by drying. In this process, more acrylamide is easily produced in coffee, which has a certain cancer risk.

In addition, most of the ingredients in a large number of instant coffee on the market are non-dairy creamer, which contains emulsifier, glucose syrup, hydrogenated vegetable oil and other ingredients. Among them, hydrogenated vegetable oil contains a lot of trans fatty acids, and intake of large amounts of trans fatty acids is likely to increase the risk of other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as hyperlipidemia.

In addition to non-dairy creamer, instant coffee also contains more sugar, which can easily lead to obesity, gout, dental caries, diabetes and other problems if consumed in large quantities. In addition, there are various additives in instant coffee, so we still need to consider many factors when choosing instant coffee.
