Things You Didn’t Know About Coffee
Coffee can kill you! Experts have determined that if you can drink up to 100 cups in quick succession it could trigger a fatal heart attack or some sort of caffeine related seizure. Although this would be very difficult to achieve as the actual amount of time it would take to drink 100 cups of coffee would only be enough time for that much caffeine to keep you awake for a long time.
Coffee is good for you! Among the contents of coffee are a variety of important anti-oxidants, these are good for the body and particularly the digestive system so at around 1 or 2 cups per day it can be beneficial, it’s the same as you might find in tea, beans, bananas or corn.
Coffee is the new painkiller! Studies have proven that small amounts of caffeine can encourage the discharge of endorphins which can block sensory neurones to pain; this has only been proven to work in muscular pain from exercise and not in any other forms of inflicted pain.
There is caffeine in decaf! It’s only marginal but a small amount of caffeine actually exists in decaffeinated coffee. But don’t dump your evening cappuccino as you would have to consume up to 10 cups of decaf to get the amount in one cup of ordinary coffee.
You can lose weight with coffee! Despite containing stimulants and other ingredients, coffee does not actually contain any calories. This bears no relevance on what you add to coffee so don’t assume you will keep your figure if you fill up on double-grande-latte-mocha-chinos.
Coffee is good for your skin! Since it contains anti-oxidants, it is argued that coffee is good for your skin so many so called skin care specialists offer some sort of service. In Japan you can bathe in fermented pineapple pulp mixed with coffee beans although there is no substantial evidence to show that any of this will work.
