Morning coffee has long become a kind of tradition for many. At the same time, not everyone knows what will happen if you drink coffee on an empty stomach, and how to drink coffee correctly in the morning in order to get more benefit from the aromatic drink than harm, writes UNIAN.
In particular, in this material you will find answers to the questions: how to drink coffee correctly so as not to harm the stomach and what experts advise to drink before coffee.
Is it possible to drink coffee on an empty stomach?
Despite the fact that the benefits of coffee have long been proven, it can be a really serious blow to the stomach. The thing is that drinking coffee in the morning on an empty stomach is fraught with consequences such as heartburn, nausea and even gastritis with diabetes.
In addition, a regular, even small dose of this tasty drink in the morning and on an empty stomach threatens not only our digestive, but also the cardiovascular and nervous systems of the body.
Coffee on an empty stomach: research
British physiologists have found that morning coffee impairs the body’s ability to metabolize glucose, and this can easily trigger diabetes.
The corresponding study was published in the British Journal of Nutrition.
An experiment conducted by scientists found that regular coffee on an empty stomach led to a sharp increase in blood glucose levels. The researchers concluded that caffeine may eventually lead to insulin resistance.
It is also known that caffeine causes more fat to be released into the blood. It also prevents the body from getting glucose from the blood.
What to drink before coffee
Experts recommend drinking water at room temperature before coffee.
A large glass of water before your morning coffee ritual will protect your body from negative consequences.
To avoid the problems described above, indigestion and other unpleasant effects from coffee, make it a rule to drink water first thing in the morning.
Plain water can be replaced with herbal tea, vegetable juice or mineral water.
