In general, what we call "black coffee" refers to the original American coffee without sugar or milk. because of the simplicity of the production process, black coffee contains very few calories. In addition, coffee itself has antioxidant caffeine and caffeic acid can effectively accelerate fat burning, so under the condition that nothing is added, everyone thinks that as long as you drink black coffee, you can burn fat and lose weight.

As a matter of fact, it is not a mistake to say that it is wrong, but it is not entirely feasible to authenticate, so we have to first put forward the classic saying: "everything has its advantages and disadvantages, and it is not good to be too bad."

Some of the ingredients in coffee can indeed help break down fat. Japanese studies have also pointed out that 30 minutes to 1 hour after drinking coffee, the body releases free fatty acids in the blood to promote body fat decomposition; three hours after drinking a cup of coffee, basic metabolism will increase by 30.5%, while the increase in basic metabolism will make it easier for the body to consume calories to achieve weight loss.

Drinking a cup of coffee an hour before some strenuous exercise and taking a short break during exercise will have more significant benefits for fat burning. Because when exercising, it is not only less likely to feel tired, but also can consume more fat by increasing concentration and lengthening the overall exercise time. At the end of exercise, it can also relieve muscle soreness and avoid giving up continuous exercise because you always feel pain in the body.

[drinking in moderation is the best policy, drinking healthily and nutritionally]

However, due to the different roasting and brewing methods of coffee beans, we should pay special attention to caffeine intake, and don't drink it just because it seems to be a topic of undefeated weight loss for tens of thousands of years. Drinking a moderate amount of coffee has the effects of refreshing, diuresis and relieving pressure, but it will aggravate the condition of people who originally suffer from cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, insomnia and gastrointestinal diseases, especially for fetuses during pregnancy and newborn children. it is more likely to cause damage to the developing central nervous system, so caffeine-containing drinks should be reduced or avoided as far as possible.

According to the assessment of the EU Food Science expert Committee, the daily caffeine intake per person is less than 300mg (mg), and our Department of Health also advises people to drink no more than 1 day 500ml (about 2 bottles).

Generally speaking, the saying that "drinking coffee = can lose weight" is too absolute, but "drinking coffee can help you lose weight" is more reasonable and acceptable. The invincible principle of any healthy weight loss still needs to be combined with exercise and diet in order to make more effective use of caffeine and caffeic acid to achieve the effect of weight loss.

For weight loss, drinking coffee is a golden assist, not a winning three-pointer.
