Addicted To Coffee - A2

Coffee is the most widely consumed drink globally, and its health effects are debated, with some studies linking it to heart disease and diabetes. Moderate consumption can enhance mental performance, but excessive intake may pose risks, especially for slow caffeine metabolizers. Choosing lower-toxin coffee and considering decaffeinated options can mitigate health concerns, while tea is a healthier alternative.

Addicted to Coffee

Il caffè è molto di più di una bibita: fa parte della nostra cultura. E nonostante il dibattito sui
suoi effetti sulla nostra salute, el caso si mantiene aperto.

Coffee is probably the most widely consumed drink + most widely consumed
drink: la bibita più consumata in the world. For this reason it has been the
subject of many scientific studies that have tried to determine whether it is
healthy or harmful. There are many articles claiming that coffee is bad for our
health. There is research that links it with an increased risk of heart disease and
even diabetes. But is this really true?

CONFUSING
The general problem with some of these studies is that they can lead to confusing
conclusions. Moderate consumption of coffee by healthy adults reduces the
sensation of physical exhaustion and mental fatigue, increases concentration and
improves short-term memory + short-term memory: memoria a breve termine
and coordination. Nevertheless + nevertheless: invece , people who metabolize
caffeine slowly may be at increased risk + may be at increased risk: possono
correre un maggiore rischio of a heart attack if they drink more than four cups of
coffee a day.

MAKING A CHOICE
Moreover + moreover: inoltre , not all kinds of coffee have the same health
effects. Coffee that’s roasted at low temperatures (known as ‘natural roasting’)
and without sugar has a lower concentration of toxins and carcinogens than
‘torrefacto’ - which is quite common in Spain and Italy.
Other factors to take into account + to take into account: tenere in
considerazione when choosing your coffee is that the Arabica variety has less
caffeine than the Robusta variety. Finally, we must not forget that from a societal
point of view + societal point of view: da un punto di vista sociale , it is
important that the coffee we buy is from fair trade sources.

CHOLESTEROL
According to recent studies, while more than six cups of coffee a day increases
overall cholesterol levels, when coffee is filtered, the compounds that cause this
increase are removed. If coffee is consumed regularly, addiction symptoms may
appear such as headaches and anxiety that could be considered withdrawal
symptoms + withdrawal symptoms: sintomi di astinenza . Yet while this
discomfort might affect day-to-day life, it should not last more than a couple of
days.

A NICE CUP OF TEA


Decaffeinated coffee is definitely the right choice for pregnant women, nursing
mothers + nursing mothers: madre lattante and people who have difficulty
sleeping. Normal coffee can increase heartburn + heartburn: bruciore di stomaco
and acid reflux + acid reflux: reflusso acido , but decaffeinated coffees and teas
do not. If you do opt + if you do opt: se si opta per for decaf, though, choose the
one made “with water only” or made “with carbon dioxide”.
If after reading this article you decide to drink less coffee, tea is a good
alternative. It also contains caffeine, but it is healthier. Tea consumption is linked
to the strengthening of the bones and the cardiovascular system. What’s more,
tea improves blood flow + blood flow: circolazione sanguigna and does not
cause acid reflux.
