Many people are used to starting their day with a cup of aromatic coffee.
However, this drink should not be consumed on an empty stomach, otherwise it may lead to unpleasant consequences.
Nutritionist and dietician Irina Kononenko spoke in more detail about this, as reported by Doctor Peter .
Possible consequences
The expert drew attention to the fact that black coffee can affect blood sugar levels, increasing them.
Moreover, it is emphasized that health and beauty may depend on a stable insulin level.
In addition, coffee, as the specialist pointed out, can increase the secretion of gastric juice.
Therefore, drinking this drink without food can lead to some consequences. In particular, it can be fraught with gastritis.
Caffeine also increases the risk of heartburn and can cause acid reflux.
This drink should be consumed with caution in case of various diseases, including esophagitis or gastritis.
In addition, the expert emphasized that caffeine can increase the excretion of certain microelements from the body. This primarily concerns calcium.
The doctor noted that appropriate studies had been conducted.
As a result, a link was found between the consumption of drinks containing caffeine and the risk of increased bone fragility.
Caffeine can also promote the elimination of vitamin B1 from the body and interfere with the absorption of iron.
And this can lead to certain health problems. Therefore, the specialist recommends drinking coffee after meals.
