Danger To Heart Health, Recognize The Impact Of Drinking Excessive Coffee

JAKARTA - In recent years, drinking coffee has become a lifestyle and routine for many people. However, drinking excessive coffee is not good for the health of the body, one of which is at heart.

Reporting from Yahoo!Life, drinking more than 400 mg of coffee daily can increase the risk of someone who is initially healthy with heart disease. 400 mg of caffeine is equivalent to about four cups of brewed coffee.

Researchers found that those who consume more than 400 mg of caffeine per day experience an increase in heart rate and blood pressure, which can cause various heart-related diseases.

Starting from hypertension or high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke, heart failure, aneurism to chronic kidney disease often referred to as a silent killer.

Above 400 mg is considered too much. A person may experience symptoms such as headaches, irritability, and anxiety," said Dr. Brynnaap, a family medicine specialist based in Austin, Texas, United States.

The impact of excessive coffee consumption is getting higher for those with a history of other diseases. The bad effects of caffeine on coffee will be felt longer and more acutely.

While the average caffeine half-life is between three to seven hours, people with slower metabolism or liver problems will experience a long, more acute caffeine effect. This is because stimulants will take longer to pass and then stay in their bloodstream longer," he said.

Resilience to caffeine cannot be generalized to each individual. A person who rarely consumes caffeine may feel pain after drinking just one glass of fire, but someone who drinks caffeine regularly may have an effect after a few cups of coffee.

"Thus, individuals must listen to their bodies, and learn to recognize the amount of caffeine for those who produce uncomfortable sensations. Such as feeling shaking or shaking, nervous or experiencing hearing disorders," added Dr. Gregory Marcus, a cardiologist and professor of medicine at the University of California.
