Drink Coffee Only in the Morning to Reduce Heart Risks
American scientists have found that the time of day when people drink coffee affects their health. Those who consume coffee exclusively in the morning have a 16% lower mortality rate and are 31% less likely to develop heart disease.
Key Findings of the Study
-
Morning Coffee is Healthier:
- People who limit their coffee consumption to the morning have a lower risk of cardiovascular diseases.
- A morning cup of coffee does not disrupt the body's natural circadian rhythms.
-
Daytime and Evening Coffee Increases Risks:
- Drinking coffee in the afternoon or evening disrupts circadian rhythms.
- This interference affects melatonin production and increases the risk of cardiovascular conditions.
How Coffee Affects the Body
-
Circadian Rhythms:
- These rhythms regulate sleep, wakefulness, and hormone production. Coffee consumed late in the day can disrupt this natural process.
-
Melatonin:
- The sleep hormone, crucial for nighttime recovery, is suppressed by caffeine.
Expert Recommendations
- Drink coffee only in the morning to avoid negative effects on the heart.
- Limit caffeine consumption, especially in the afternoon and evening.
- Maintain a consistent sleep schedule to protect cardiovascular health.
Conclusion
The study highlights the importance of timing when drinking coffee. While a morning cup can be beneficial, coffee later in the day is associated with increased heart health risks.
