It turns out that this drink is the usual and favorite coffee for many.
According to Dr. Myasnikov, coffee was previously considered a bad habit, just like drinking a glass of champagne in the morning. But about 30 years ago, scientific studies began to appear proving the beneficial and positive effect of coffee on various organs of the body and improving their condition.
Coffee can
and should always be drunk," he says. As is known, there are healthy drinks and harmful drinks. Some of them cause inflammation in the body, while others reduce inflammation and prevent diseases of blood vessels and internal organs
For example
- sweetened soft drinks and juices cause inflammation; in addition to sugar
- they contain compounds that cause inflammation of blood vessels
- cells, and tissues. Coffee and tea reduce inflammation.
Myasnikov adds that
caffeine is a well-known stimulant used by 90% of people, and green tea contains a higher percentage of it than coffee.
Therefore
it is recommended not to exceed 300 mg of caffeine per day.
Coffee also contains more than 1,000 biologically active substances.
He confirms:
"Coffee is a completely therapeutic drink that reduces the risk of myocardial infarction, lowers the heart rate, and regulates blood pressure levels."
He points out that
- but if it is part of the usual diet, it does not affect blood pressure.
- Coffee is also good for the liver.
"If a person suffers from hepatitis, the question of whether he likes coffee is no longer important," Myasnikov says. He should drink coffee, as it has been shown to slow the progression of liver cirrhosis. There is no stronger liver protector than it."
According to him
unfiltered coffee may slightly increase total cholesterol
however the International Society of Cardiologists recommends drinking coffee, because it reduces by 25% the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke, and also protects blood vessels and the heart.
He points out that drinking coffee
has also become justified from the perspective of preventing osteoporosis. After studies, coffee is considered a gift from God, as it reduces the risk of diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and any other type of dementia.
He adds:
"There are many diseases that require drinking coffee to treat". There is not a single disease that coffee cannot help prevent or alleviate, including high blood pressure, heart palpitations, irregular heartbeat, and others."
What is the healthy rate of coffee intake per day?
Dr. Antonina Starodubova, chief nutritionist at the Moscow Ministry of Health, announced that there are no strict restrictions on the amount of coffee that can be consumed per day, however it must be consumed with caution.
As a rule
there are no strict restrictions
and one or two cups of coffee can be consumed daily," the expert says. However, some experts suggest limiting caffeine intake to no more than 3 milligrams per kilogram of body weight.
This means that if a person weighs 70 kg, he can consume 210 milligrams of caffeine, i.e. 5-6 cups of black tea, or three cups of coffee a day.
According to her
people who are predisposed to high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease should be careful when drinking coffee.
It is also not recommended to drink coffee when there are digestive problems, such as ulcers and gastritis, because coffee has some irritating effect.
