Coffee is a natural antioxidant, although its pros and cons have been debated by experts from all walks of life, it still has certain benefits to the body, such as reducing the risk of liver fibrosis and preventing dementia. Wait, it's just that we all know to drink coffee, but we have to choose when is the best time to drink coffee? Wu Yingrong, chief executive of the Taiwan Nutrition Foundation and doctor of nutrition at National Taiwan University, pointed out in her column that the best time to drink coffee is an hour after breakfast every day, at about 7: 9 a.m., when drinking coffee does not hinder mineral absorption or increase cortisol, the "stress hormone" that kills brain cells. At the same time, you can keep a good mood!

In Dr. Wu's special article, it is pointed out that we are usually used to refreshing ourselves through coffee when we are lethargic. But in fact, the body may feel tired because there is not enough oxygen in the body due to lack of iron, or there are not enough nutrients to synthesize norepinephrine, epinephrine or phenylethylamine. When we drink coffee at the wrong time, it may affect the absorption of iron, copper and other minerals, unable to synthesize non-tiring conductive substances, but unable to refresh.

Dr. Wu further pointed out that the study found that 200mg of caffeine increased the body's "stress hormone" cortisol (cortisol) by about 30% and lasted for 18 hours before gradually decreasing. Cortisol is a killer of brain cells. When it is too high, it increases insulin secretion, resulting in increased appetite and fat accumulation, as well as a drop in serotonin, resulting in unhappiness and a craving for sweets. At the same time, it also reduces the secretion of DHEA, a precursor of male / female hormones, accelerating aging.

Therefore, although coffee has many benefits and advantages, but choose the right time to drink coffee in order to have a good mood and health! Dr. Wu recommends that the best time to drink coffee is an hour after breakfast, that is, about 7: 9 a.m., but not too much. The reason for choosing this time is also because the study found that the "stress hormone" cortisol secretes the most when you get up in the morning and is less sensitive to the stimulation of coffee, but after 9 o'clock, cortisol secretion drops rapidly. at this time, the relative effect of drinking coffee will be great, leading to excessive production of cortisol.
