I started learning about coffee in 2011. Through hard study and discussions with masters in the same field, I found that coffee has great charm and is very attractive to young people. As a foreign product, it has developed very rapidly in China. So what is coffee? Let's get to know coffee Coffee is made from coffee beans. Coffee beans refer to the kernels inside the fruit of the coffee tree. The coffee tree is a perennial evergreen shrub or small tree belonging to the Rubiaceae family. Coffee beans can be found all over the world and can grow normally as long as the climate is suitable. These places suitable for cultivating coffee beans are located between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Tropic of Cancer, generally between 25 degrees north latitude and 30 degrees south latitude, covering most countries in Central Africa, East Africa, the Middle East, India, South Asia, the Pacific region, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Coffee trees can be roughly divided into 5 types, of which Arabica and Robusta are more common. Coffee has some special culture and etiquette, and drinking coffee has certain benefits for health. So what are the benefits of drinking coffee? 1. Refresh your mind Coffee contains caffeine, which can stimulate the nerves, heart and respiratory system. Therefore, drinking coffee in moderation can refresh the mind and reduce brain and muscle fatigue. Since caffeine has a strong diuretic effect, it can promote the kidneys to excrete excess sodium ions in the blood, and it also has certain benefits for the cardiovascular system. 2. Diuretic and hangover The caffeine in coffee has a diuretic effect and also promotes the conversion of ethanol into acetaldehyde. Therefore, drinking coffee after drinking alcohol can promote the conversion of ethanol in the blood into acetaldehyde, which is excreted from the body through the kidneys and can sober you up. 3. Prevent gallstones Or caffeine. Caffeine has a certain stimulating effect on many organs and tissues in the body. For example, it can stimulate the contraction of the gallbladder and reduce the cholesterol content in bile, which has a great preventive effect on the formation of gallstones. A study by Harvard University in the United States showed that people who drink 2 to 3 cups of coffee a day will reduce the risk of gallstones by 40%. 4. Regulate emotions Nowadays, many young people regard coffee as a fashionable leisure drink. Drinking a cup of fragrant coffee after busy work is not only a way to eliminate fatigue, but also a spiritual enjoyment that can relieve a day's physical and mental fatigue and regulate mood and emotions.
