COFFEE CAN MAKE YOU SMARTER AND INCREASE ENERGY LEVEL

Coffee can help people feel less tired and increase energy levels. This is because it contains a stimulant called caffeine, which is actually the most commonly consumed psychoactive substance in the world. After you drink coffee, the caffeine is absorbed into the bloodstream. From there, it travels into the brain. In the brain, caffeine blocks an inhibitory neurotransmitter called adenosine. When that happens, the amount, of other neurotransmitters like norepinephrine and dopamine actually increases, leading to enhanced firing of neurons. Many controlled trials in humans show that coffee improves various aspects of brain function. This includes memory, mood, vigilance, energy levels, reaction times and general cognitive function.

COFFEE CAN HELP YOU BURN FAT

Did you know that caffeine is found in almost every commercial fat burning supplement?

There’s a good reason for that… caffeine is one of the very few natural substances that have actually been proven to aid fat burning.

Several studies show that caffeine can boost the metabolic rate by 3-11%.

Other studies show that caffeine can specificallz increase the burning of fat, by as much as 10% in obese individuals and 29% in lean people.

However, it is possible that these effects will diminish in long-term coffee drinkers.

NAUKA JE DOKAZALA: ŠTO VIŠE KAFE PIJETE DUŽE ĆETE ŽIVETI/ KAFA SMANJUJE PROCENAT SAMOUBISTAVA

ENGLISH TRANSLATION HERE

Iako je bila demonizovana u prošlosti, kafa je jedno od najzdravijih pića na planeti. Ona je mnogo više od samo crne tečnosti koja sadrži kafein... kafa zapravo sadrži i stotine drugih sastojaka, od kojih su neki veoma važni za zdravlje. Nekoliko velikih studija je dokazalo da ljudi koji piju kafu žive duže i imaju manji rizik da obole od bolesti kao što su Alchajmerova bolest ili dijabetes.

KAFA JE VAŽAN IZVOR ANTIOKSIDANATA

Kafa sadrži kafein ali takođe i stotine drugih sastojaka, od kojih su mnogi antioksidansi koji štite naše telo od oksidacije koja uključuje slobodne radikale koji oštećuju molecule  u našem telu. Veruje se da je oksidacija zaslužna za starenje i neke poznate bolesti kao što je rak ili srčani udar. Kafa je najveći izvor antioksidanata u zapadnoj ishrani, čak prevazilazi i voće i povrće u tome.

 NEKOLIKO VELIKIH STUDIJA POKAZALO JE DA LJUDI KOJI PIJU KAFU ŽIVE DUŽE OD ONIH KOJI JE NE PIJU

Revolucionarna Studija je objavljena u časopisu New England Journal of Medicine u 2012. god. U ovoj studiji 402,260  pojedinaca između 50 i 71 godine života su učestvovali u ispitivanju o njihovim navikama u ispijanju kafe. Rezultati su bili prilično neverovatni… nakon što su pratili ljude u period od 12 do 13 godina, došlo se do rezultata da su oni, koji su pili kafu, imali manje šanse da umru od onih koji nisu.

Najviše efekta je dalo ispijanje 4 do 5 šoljica dnevno, u kom slučaju su muškarci imali za 12% manji rizik a žene 16% manji rizik od smrti. Ispijanje 6 ili više šoljica dnevno ne daje nikakvu dodatnu korist. Međutim, čak i umereno konzumiranje kafe (1 šoljica dnevno) povezano je sa smanjenjem rizika od smrti od 5 do 6 %, što pokazuje da čak i mala količina kafe ima efekta.

Kada se pogledaju uzroci smrti, nalazi se da oni koji konzumiraju kafu imaju manje šanse od smrti usled infekcije, povreda ili nezgoda, respiratornih bolesti, dijabetesa, šloga i srčanog udara.

Studije sa Harvarda su pokazale da vas kafa može učiniti srećnijim i tako smanji rizik od depresije i to za 20%, kao i rizik od samoubistva za 53%.

ZNAČI DA KAFA NE SAMO ŠTO DODAJE GODINE VAŠEM ŽIVOTU, VEĆ I MOŽE DODATI ŽIVOT VAŠIM GODINAMA!

SCIENCE CONFIRMS: THE MORE COFFE YOU DRINK, THE LONGER YOU WILL LIVE/ COFFEE REDUCES THE RISK OF SUICIDE

SRPSKI PREVOD OVDE

Despite having been demonized in the past, coffee is one of the healthiest beverages on the planet.

It is more than just dark-coloured liquid with caffeine… coffee actually contains hundreds of different compounds, some of which have important health benefits.

Several massive studies have now shown that the people who drink the most coffee live longer and have a reduced risk of diseases like Alzheimer`s and diabetes.

COFFEE IS A MAJOR SOURCE OF ANTIOXIDANTS

Coffee contains caffeine but also hundreds of other compounds, many of which are antioxidants that protect our bodies from oxidation, which involves free radicals that damage molecules in the body. Oxidation is believed to be one of the mechanisms behind ageing and common diseases like cancer and heart disease. Coffee happens to be the biggest source of antioxidants in the Western diet, outranking both fruit and vegetables.

When you treat yourself with a cup of coffee, you`re not only getting caffeine but a whole bunch of other beneficial compounds, including powerful antioxidants.

SEVERAL MASSIVE STUDIES SHOW THAT PEOPLE WHO DRINK COFFEE LIVE LONGER THAN THOSE WHO DON`T

A groundbreaking study was published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2012. In this study, 402,260 individuals between 50 and 71 years of age were asked about their coffee consumption. The results were fairly remarkable… after following the people for 12-13 years, those who drank the most coffee were significantly less likely to have died.

The sweet spot seems to be at 4-5 cups per day, where men had a 12% reduced risk and women a 16% reduced risk. Drinking 6 or more cups per day provided no additional benefit. However, even moderate consumption of coffee (1 cup per day) was associated with a 5-6% reduction in risk of death, showing that even a little bit is enough to have an effect.

When they looked at particular causes of death, they found that the coffee drinkers were less likely to die from infections, injuries and accidents, respiratory disease, diabetes, stroke and heart disease.

There are also studies from Harvard showing that coffee may make you happier, reducing the risk of depression by 20% and the risk of suicide by 53%.

 SO… NOT ONLY DOES COFFEE ADD YEARS TO YOUR LIFE, BUT IT MAY ALSO ADD LIFE TO YOUR YEARS!
