Many people love the aroma and taste of coffee, but very often they cannot stand the caffeine itself, which causes them to become overexcited.
It is for this reason that decaffeinated coffee is available on store shelves for such consumers.
However, is this version of the product really safe? Experts in the field of chemistry answered this question.
Even the best decaffeination method cannot completely dissolve all the caffeine, researchers say.
This is worth knowing
It is emphasized that a 200-gram cup of coffee will in any case contain at least 7 milligrams of caffeine.
It is also worth considering the fact that ethyl acetate is used to dissolve this substance, which is a chemical that is safe for humans.
In addition, methylene chloride, which is considered hazardous to consume in high concentrations, may be involved in the process.
However, after the decaffeination process, a negligible concentration of methylene chloride remains in the final product, which does not affect human health.
