YOGYAKARTA - Have you ever felt it, when you were doing a lot of tasks that required us to stay up late, we ended up drinking coffee, eh but still sleepy too? That often happens, and this time we will discuss the cause of sleepiness after drinking coffee!

Caused a sugar crash

When drinking coffee with high extra sugar or creamer, you will feel you have lost your energy faster. This is because the body processes sugar at a faster pace than caffeine.

Within 90 minutes of just drinking, you can feel lost energy because your sugar content increases quickly and drops back.

Causing dehydration

Who would have thought, the coffee we were drinking turned out to have a diuretic nature, so the content of coffee will help our bodies to emit water. So it's only natural that when we drink coffee, we will urinate.

When our bodies lose fluids, our blood will automatically run slowly and the oxygen circulating in our bodies will be small.

Do you know what the side effects will be if there is a little oxygen in the body? Y, akita, will be easily tired and sleepy. The solution is that you do no more than 500 mg per day.

High caffeine tolerance

The reason for being sleepy after drinking the next coffee is because you have a large caffeine tolerance.

This situation can be established if you drink coffee regularly or excessively.

The level of tolerance in caffeine can also change due to aspects of age, weight, and medicine. In order not to be trapped in this situation, the caffeine limit is less than 500 mg per day.

Coffee blocks adenosine receptors

Adenosine is a chemical in the brain that affects the internal hours of the body. In reasonable conditions, adenosine is related to receptors in the brain to slow down brain activity as preparation for rest.

But when you consume caffeine, the drink will block the adenosine's ability and avoid the brain from receiving adenosine so that the chemical matter accumulates. When the caffeine impact disappears, adenosine buildup will overwhelm the brain and cause drowsiness.

Toxic chemicals

Micotoksin is a natural toxic chemical material found in mushrooms in the seeds, one of which is coffee. In large doses, the presence of mycotoxine is quite risky because it can cause pneumonia, difficulty breathing, and fever.

To reduce the risk of mycotoxine, the World Health Organization proposes to use dried and packaged coffee commodities accordingly.
