After the intake of food is converted into calories, it is used to maintain the body's basic heartbeat, blood pressure and other metabolism. part of the energy will be converted into liver sugar and stored in the liver and muscles, helping muscles contract and maintain blood sugar balance in a short period of time. The extra calories are converted into adipose tissue, which is stored under the skin or around the viscera.
The habit of one cup of coffee a day has become one of the daily habits of many people, and drinking a moderate amount of pure coffee with very low calories not only has no burden on the body, but also can promote metabolism. But now the rise of many flavored coffee makes it full of sweet taste, and the calorie content is even closer to a bowl of white rice. In other words, it is not the pure coffee itself that causes the calorie explosion, but the additives. The following is also an introduction to common coffee:
American Coffee:
Diluted black coffee with water has become a common American coffee, with only about 20 kcal of calories in a cup, which is a more natural, lower-calorie coffee item. Using hand brewing, dripping and other methods to cook coffee, drink coffee mellow, do not need to add sugar or milk ball, is also a kind of original persistence, less extra calories but more healthy.
People who are afraid of suffering can add "low-fat fresh milk" to replace the cream with no nutritional value, because the fresh milk itself is slightly sweet and can make the taste more docile.
Latte:
"Latte" means fresh milk in Italian, so lattes generally refer to coffee brewed with hot fresh milk, so more than half of them are milk, with about several times as many calories as American coffee, with an average of 225 calories per cup. If you add syrup to flavor, make hazelnut lattes, caramel lattes, etc., the calories will approach 300 calories.
When you want to drink lattes, it is recommended to choose "sugar-free + low-fat milk", which will effectively reduce unnecessary calories.
Mocha Coffee:
The gorgeous shape can be said to be a work of art in the limelight, and the gorgeous appearance always makes people move their index fingers, but mocha coffee with a lot of whipped cream and chocolate is a terrible fat trap, with an average of 365 calories per cup. If you ignore the existence of the thick layer of whipped cream above, it is tantamount to drinking an extra 100 kcal of calories, and almost all of them are "grease".
Canned coffee
It is convenient to have a can of cold coffee at checkout, but most canned coffee always tastes sweet. It is because a large amount of sugar and cream have been added to the production. And most of the seemingly approachable prices on the market are made from coffee beans of poor quality in order to reduce costs, so the calories are hardly too low (about 230 calories). If you look at the ingredient table carefully, you will find that it contains emulsifiers, flavors and other artificial additives. A good natural cup of coffee does not need these miscellaneous substances at all (the data in the picture is the average of multiple brands)
Calorie is a necessary source of energy to maintain the human body for a day, and the total calorie intake of adults should not be less than 1200 calories per day, but affected by gender and activity, one should check his calorie intake according to the ideal BMI (body mass index). If you really want a sweet taste, you can use sugar substitute or fresh milk instead of cream, so you can taste the desired taste and reduce calorie intake.
