For readers who love a good cup of coffee, I’m sure there is nothing as satisfying as drinking a cup of freshly brewed coffee in the morning to kickstart your day.
For some of you, coffee is something you need just to kick yourself awake and ready for the day’s challenges, especially if you have had little to no sleep the night before.
For those of you who have a habit of drinking coffee daily, here is the actual amount of coffee you should drink daily and the reasons why too much coffee may be bad for your health.
Caffeine
Coffee is a stimulant that can help us to stay awake. The reason behind the effectiveness of coffee is the high caffeine content within the drink. Caffeine helps to block the activity of a chemical found in your brain that is associated with sleep and instead, tricks your brain into producing adrenaline which energises you.
What most do not know is that in moderation, caffeine can indeed energise you. But when consumed in large quantities, all caffeine serves to do is to make you feel nauseous, dizzy and restless.
How much a day
For regular adults, it is recommended that they consume an average of 300-400mg of caffeine daily, this translates to roughly 3-4 cups of regular coffee or 1 cup of venti-sized Starbucks coffee. However for those with heart conditions, it is not advisable for them to consume the same amount of coffee as caffeine is a stimulant that may cause increased heart rates and blood pressure, both of which might be too much for their hearts to tahan.
Children and caffeine
For children, it is recommended that they do not consume coffee as the caffeine may affect their sleep, which is important for a child’s brain development. Of course, do note that coffee isn’t the only source of caffeine, and soft drinks like coca cola contain caffeine as well, so be sure to moderate their consumption too!
