For centuries, coffee has been both praised and derided. It has been blamed for causing impotence and insanity, as well as being a cure for idleness or a "gift from heaven." It's heavy stuff. But what are the actual scientifically proven drawbacks and drawbacks of coffee that we are aware of today? Let's take a look at my list: 1. Bad coffee can be toxic Poor quality coffee can contain a lot of impurities, which can cause illness, headaches, or just a bad feeling in general. This can happen if your coffee is made from overripe or damaged beans. Even one bad bean can stain your cup. 2. Coffee Can Kill You Yes, you heard it right! If you drink 80-100 cups (23 liters) in a short sitting. This dose is lethal and will be at 10-13 grams of caffeine inside your body 3.
Coffee can cause insomnia and agitation. Again, it's the caffeine at work here…the recommended maximum amount of caffeine is 400 milligrams, which is roughly the equivalent of 4 cups of coffee. If coffee is degrading your sleep quality, try cutting out coffee later in the day, after 2:00 PM for example. Say goodbye to coffee if you're pregnant! Studies on the effect of coffee on the fetus have been controversial, but one thing is certain: if you drink coffee during pregnancy, the caffeine will also reach the fetus, and your baby is very sensitive to caffeine. 5. Wetting at night Studies have shown that caffeine consumption for children aged 5-7 years may increase enuresis aka bedwetting. 6. Coffee can affect pregnancy Caffeine consumption can increase the risk of miscarriage when trying to conceive, so those who are trying to start a family should be careful and monitor their caffeine intake. 7. Coffee is Bad for Cholesterol Considering some of the compounds found in coffee, excessive consumption of coffee can lead to increased levels of LDL cholesterol. Too much LDL cholesterol can cause hardening of the arteries, which in turn impedes blood flow to the heart and deprives it of oxygen.
8. Caffeine Can Cause Anxiety Consuming too much caffeine can cause nervousness, anxiety, heart palpitations, and even panic attacks. If you are sensitive to caffeine and easily overstimulated, you should avoid coffee altogether. 9. Caffeine Addiction I'm talking to all the coffee drinkers here… When people abstain from caffeine, they develop withdrawal symptoms, such as headaches, fatigue, brain fog, and irritability. This can go on for a few days. 10. Caffeine can cause indigestion. Drinkers of caffeinated beverages frequently complain of an upset stomach or indigestion. This is most common when the beverage is taken on an empty stomach. Caffeine is a drug that, like any other substance, can have varying effects on different people. We must understand how caffeine interacts with our bodies in relation to our personal health history. For some people, switching from coffee to a shot of ginger or another naturally energizing beverage may be a better option..
