JAKARTA - Many people like to start the morning with a cup of coffee next to the bed. Coffee is considered a mandatory drink in the morning because it helps raise enthusiasm and makes the body feel fresher. But some people continue to drink coffee all day long.
It's true, coffee has many benefits such as increasing energy, keeping weight ideal, and supporting sports performance. However, excessive coffee consumption can have a bad impact on the body, including for the throat.
"Coffins contain caffeine, which is dehydrated. If consumed excessively, coffee can cause irritation to the throat. In addition, coffee can also increase the risk of reflux of stomach acid," said Dr. Rachna Mehta Shroff, Head and Neck Surgeon and THT Specialist, quoted from the Only My Health page.
"One to two cups of coffee is still safe, but if you drink it all day long, it can be dangerous," he continued.
Coffee that is drunk continuously without enough water intake can also damage health. The body becomes dehydrated and if not balanced by drinking enough water, the throat can experience irritation.
One of the habits that is often done is drinking coffee as soon as you wake up, especially when your stomach is empty. Dr. Rachna explained that your stomach is usually empty for about nine hours in the morning.

Drinking coffee in this condition can trigger irritation and digestive problems. He recommends drinking water first than coffee when waking up in the morning.
In addition, caffeine addiction can also affect other health aspects, such as sleep. A study shows caffeine consumption within six hours of sleep can interfere with sleep quality. Lack of sleep makes the body sleepy throughout the day and encourages people to drink coffee again for instant energy.
If you have been drinking excessive coffee and start feeling side effects on your throat, you should immediately consult a doctor. According to Dr. Rachna, its handling can reduce caffeine consumption and increase drinking water throughout the day. In this way, the symptoms that arise due to coffee will usually improve by themselves.
