Like any food, coffee also must not be abused, because it could have very few interesting effects for our health, precisely with regard to viruses. So beware of coffee because it becomes an unexpected ally of Covid-19.
Coffee is the most popular beverage in the world
After tea, coffee is by far the most consumed drink in the world. 85% of adults consume it habitually. And this especially in cold climate countries, where a nice cup of hot coffee serves to warm up.
Yet this beverage beloved, it could also prove to be our potential enemy.
The little known effects of coffee on humans
Someone probably noticed it, but especially when the temperatures start to drop, it happens that drinking a coffee shortly afterwards we get to sneeze.
In fact, coffee has an inhibiting action on two vitamins, A and C. Vitamin C notoriously protects us from the consequences of the winter cold, hence sneezing. But not only from those.
Vitamin A and C, two protectors of our cells
An important effect of these two vitamins on our health is to give us back a fit body. Both fight free radicals, substances that cause serious problems for our health. Besides the fact that they attack our cells.
It is in fact the cell membrane and the mitochondria that are damaged by free radicals. Mitochondria produce energy and are the basis of the processes of formation of neuronal cells. The cell membrane is then a filter that protects the cell.
Both vitamins A and C help cells by fighting free radicals, which weaken them. Vitamin A regenerates cells, especially those of the skin, hence the typical youthful effect and the absence of wrinkles. Vitamin C fights free radicals, protecting the cell membrane. It also helps in the production of collagen, which delays skin aging.
Beware of coffee because it becomes an unexpected ally of Covid-19
If we had an unbalanced diet, with excesses of free radicals, the excessive intake of coffee would lead to a decrease in those vitamins essential to the health of the cell and its membrane. It is precisely this that suffers the attacks of viruses, such as that of Covid-19.
A well-balanced immune system, a healthy diet at the table, a controlled use of coffee and the intake of foods rich in vitamins A and C, surely help the body to fight virus. Beware, therefore, of coffee because it becomes an unexpected ally of Covid-19.
