Patient's Query

Hello,

I am a coffee lover, and I have heard mixed things about its health effects. Can you provide information on the health benefits of coffee, especially in terms of caffeine? What positive impacts does it have, and are there any limits to how much coffee is good for you? I am just trying to figure out if my daily brew is doing more good than harm. Kindly help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

Start your day with a cup of coffee or tea first thing in the morning it is a good idea in cold weather but do not have it empty stomach.

Caffeine found in coffee or tea is a central nervous stimulant that works by blocking adenosine receptors, thereby speeding up neural activity. This is the precise reason why you feel "high" after your cup of tea or coffee. Though, this effect is short-lived. After a couple of hours, your system slows down, your body craves another shot of caffeine for its physiological effects so it is suggested not to have coffee before bedtime as it disturbs the sleep pattern. Excess caffeine leads to water loss, trouble sleeping, anxiety, depressed mood, fatigue, and low energy levels and in the long term, it can also lead to chronic insomnia, and digestive health issues.

I suggest you follow the below-mentioned instructions.

  1. Try consuming a turmeric latte or blue tea it helps the body to relax too.
  2. One can have decaffeinated coffee twice a day.

I hope this information will help you.

Thank you.
