According to many doctors, it is important to maintain certain healthier lifestyle habits and behaviors to enjoy all the health benefits. And according to one doctor in particular, a coffee habit would be one of them. Let us explain!
Coffee is a true institution in France and around the world, it is also one of the main hot drinks for breakfast. With an average consumption of 5.4 kg per year per capita, coffee is the second most consumed beverage in the world after water. Energizing, caffeine is appreciated for its “boost” effect that it provides throughout the day, especially when you feel a little sluggish, tired or need greater concentration.
Yet even if coffee has many health benefits, it is rich in oxidants, improves our cognitive abilities, our digestive system and limits the development of certain cancers such as endometrial cancer, it can also have very bad effects on health when consumed in the wrong way. This is what a British doctor, Poonam Desai, present on the social network TikTok highlighted in one of her videos, in particular by raising the question of the time at which you should drink your cup of coffee.
