Coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world. He is known everywhere. In different countries, the cooking method is very different from each other. Coffee was first used by man more than a millennium ago. Since then, this drink has strengthened its position and has firmly taken pride of place in almost every home.
It is believed that coffee increases blood pressure. This is due to the caffeine content of the coffee tree. This alkaloid has a tonic effect on the body, but it is mainly associated with people who have hypotension, that is, low blood pressure. The consequence is the vigorous state of a person. Therefore, many people like to drink in the morning, so to speak, “recharge” with energy from a cup of aromatic strong coffee. Many even suffer from a certain dependence on a morning cup of a noble drink and cannot actively start a new day without drinking it.
Whether coffee raises the pressure in a person with normal pressure - this fact remains debatable. Nevertheless, medicine does not recommend leaning on this invigorating drink for people with high blood pressure and suffering from coronary heart disease.
There is an interesting competent opinion of scientists about how coffee affects pressure, and indeed the whole body. It turns out that a lot depends on the person’s temperament. It all depends on the processes of excitation and inhibition. When caffeine enters the body, one person is excited, and the other is quite the opposite - falls into a state of inhibition.
The effect of coffee on pressure is not the only positive result of a cup of this drink. Caffeine acts on the whole body, improving blood circulation, both of individual organs, and of it as a whole. In this regard, the risk of a disease called cholelithiasis is reduced. It is assumed that caffeine prevents the formation of crystals of cholesterol, which is known to be part of the stones, and also increases the rate of breakdown of fats and the outflow of bile. In addition, coffee acts on the intestines as a mild sedative and prevents the release of potassium from the human body.
Drinking a cup of coffee normalizes pressure, activates brain processes, such as: memory, thinking, attention, and also helps to cope with depression. The thing is that coffee contains serotin, which helps fight depression. Scientists have found that drinking two cups of an invigorating drink a day, a person thereby reduces the risk of depression by three times. People who drink coffee, more self-confident, do not suffer from anxiety attacks and fear, they have adequate self-esteem, in contrast to people who neglect this drink.
Useful properties are not everything on this. Scientists have found that caffeine is essential for the human body. If it does not enter the body, then there is a chance of headaches and irritability. The required amount of caffeine per day is found in two cups of black gold or three cups of tea, as well as in a bar of dark chocolate. In addition to caffeine, coffee grains contain about thirty useful organic acids. A drunk cup will provide the body with one fifth of the daily intake of vitamin R.
Nowadays, not many people prefer to buy grains and grind. Many drink an analogue - instant coffee. It is believed that soluble less caffeine. But in fact, on the contrary, a soluble analogue contains more caffeine than its "brother" in grains or ground. Accordingly, drinking a cup of instant coffee will increase the pressure faster. Therefore, you need to be careful when choosing a dosage.
There are a lot of ways to prepare a fragrant cup and everyone can choose the one that he likes best. One interesting fact: coffee brewed in different ways affects the body in different ways. Doctors found that coffee brewed in cezve, unlike espresso, increases cholesterol, which is less beneficial.
