Have you ever been tired of drinking three or four cups of coffee in the morning to refresh yourself? The latest issue of Taiwan's health magazine tells you that coffee may be the culprit New research from Harvard University points out that caffeine in coffee can interfere with the function of tranquilizers in the central nervous system, so drinking coffee makes people awake and excited But even if you pour three or four cups of coffee in the morning, the excitement will disappear at noon, making people feel sleepy again, but more tired Therefore, it's best to have only one cup of coffee in the morning and another in the afternoon when you feel tired This way, caffeine intake is stable and the effect is more lasting Cui Junming, vice president of the Hong Kong Society of hospital pharmacists, agreed that coffee is a refreshing substance with quick effect The study found that it can be effective after 1 to 1.5 hours of drinking However, if you take more than 400 mg of caffeine (about 4 cups of coffee) a day, it may affect sleep, make you more tired, and may cause arrhythmia and blood pressure rise In addition, a new study published in the American Journal of Applied Social Psychology shows that the refreshing effect of coffee is more obvious for women.
