And we Italians know it well! Not everyone knows, however, what happens to his body when consuming coffee and what effects generates in the long term. There are many studies that have tried to deepen the question but, still, has not yet been defined a line that agrees all. There are those who claim that it hurts, those who enhance the beneficial peculiarities. One thing is clear: like all things, you don't have to abuse them. We put the coffee maker on the stove and let's see what happens to our body when we drink coffee every day, from the negative effects as positive.

Create addiction

Even without scientific insights it is clear that the coffee creates addictive. If we talk in terms of science we immediately understand that it is not a simple habit. How many times happened to you to feel irritated, fogged, with sorrows to the head, if we spill a cup of coffee? This is because caffeine binds to certain receptors in the brain that stimulate sleep. Without coffee, energy decreases and the body enters the abstinence phase.

Disturbs sleep

Let's face it: the smell of freshly awake coffee is a priceless feel. Berne one or two cups during the morning is something that everyone does but in a few know that caffeine disposal time stands around six hours. Will it not be that coffee after dinner that interferes with the quality of sleep? Apparently yes!

Create stirring

As stimulating, coffee can cause symptoms of nervousness, agitation, anxiety and, in extreme cases, panic attacks. If one of these signals should be revealed, even in a bland way, it is advisable to reduce caffeine consumption to avoid the onset of psychosis and chronic anxiety.

Pregnant can be harmful

Coffee is a strong drink: we have seen how its effects affect both mental and physical health. That's why the recruitment in pregnancy is not recommended, the fetus would not be able to metabolize caffeine and risks hiring less nutrition.

Stimulates mental health

A scientific discovery published in the magazine Frontiers in Neuroscience confirmed how coffee consumption decreases the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. This potential is not inherent in the actual coffee but, rather, in its roasting: phenylindans, compounds that act on the proteins responsible for the two mistakes mentioned, form as the beans are toasted.

Implement the memory

To investigate coffee-memory correlation, researchers have provided a group of studio participants a dose of caffeine before making use of images, maintaining another control group without coffee; the next day the "caffeine group" showed a better ability to recognize images than the other group. The result of the survey: caffeine improves memory!

Improve attention

Coffee is an extraordinary stimulant: all thanks to its action on dopamine and noradrenaline neurotransmitters which, on the one hand, reduces the feeling of fatigue, while from the other stimulates concentration. Not only that, some research has discovered that those who drink coffee is less likely to suffer from depression.
