Each and every day there are millions of people in the world that wake up with a cup of coffee. Even though everyone knows about the stimulating properties of coffee and how they can keep people awake, there are a few other health items that could develop from heavily drinking coffee. Research has shown some of the effects of drinking a moderate amount of coffee may be beneficial. Yet some of the other effects of drinking large doses of coffee may be doing more harm to your health than good. This post will examine some of the effects that coffee drinking might have.
Research has verified that roasted coffee contains a powerful antioxidant known as methylpyridinium. Methylpyridinium is only found in roasted coffee in large amounts. It isn’t even found in raw coffee beans. It is the roasting process that creates the methylpyridinium. The raw form of the compound is trigonelline. Methylpyridinium is created from the trigonelline during the roasting process. This is found in many different types of coffee that include instant and decaf varieties. Methylpyridinium is known to protect the body from various forms of cancer.
Coffee however can reduce the incidences of cirrhosis of the liver by quite a bit. Cirrhosis occurs in people suffering from chronic liver disease and is when the normally healthy liver tissue begins to be replaced by fibrosis and nodules. These can make your liver stop doing it’s job. Coffee has an anti-fibrotic quality that some people can benefit from. Some studies have linked a decreased risk of liver cancer to the consumption of caffeine in coffee.
Women who drink too much coffee are often beset by anemia or an iron deficiency according to research. Drinking too much coffee negatively impacts the body’s ability to properly absorb iron. The body needs to maintain certain iron levels for many different reasons. Not only does iron help to carry oxygen to the body and the lungs, but it’s also an integral part of many enzyme reactions. Iron is a vital factor for controlling infection within the body. Iron deficiencies have a largely negative impact on almost everything the body does. Consistently suffering from insufficient iron can lead to anemia and/or constant fatigue. There are many benefits to drinking moderate amounts of coffee. Too much coffee though causes just as many potential health problems. If you want to experience the full range of potential health benefits from drinking coffee it is important to limit yourself to two cups daily.
