Popular science | sad when it's cold? According to the latest scientific research, drinking coffee helps to improve depression.

Winter would begin in half a month, which proved that winter was coming!

I don't know if you in front of the screen will have the same feeling as the codeword worker No.6. Whenever the season changes or the weather gets cold, you will inexplicably produce depression. Believe me, this is not a niche phenomenon. A pan-European survey funded by the Institute for Scientific Information on Coffee (ISIC) found that lifestyle and eating habits change as sunlight decreases, with adults across Europe experiencing increased depression and sadness.

The trial, which surveyed more than 5,000 adults in Britain, Italy, Finland, Germany and Poland, showed that as daylight hours decreased, 21 percent of respondents became more anxious, 24 percent had more difficulty concentrating, 25 percent lost motivation to exercise and 21 percent had lower athletic performance. During the darker, cooler months of the year, some people may experience persistent depression, loss of interest or interest in normal activities, and a lack of energy, often referred to as seasonal affective disorder. SAD usually occurs in autumn and winter, and is relieved in spring or summer.

Are you in urgent need of a way to ease seasonal affective disorder with the coming winter? According to scientific research, lifestyle measures such as good eating habits and regular exercise can help improve mood. But, as a bitter worker, ask yourself, can you do it? Never mind, code six gives you a better way: drink! Coffee! Coffee!

You think I'm kidding you? That's not true. Health studies have shown that regular coffee consumption improves most emotional cognition, shortens reaction times and increases alertness. Giuseppe Grosso, assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical and Biotechnology Sciences at the University of Catania School of Medicine, believes that "coffee polyphenols can exert anti-neuroinflammatory effects through the blood-brain barrier and even promote neurogenesis, resulting in reduced risk of cognitive impairment and emotional disorders".

A review of pan-European studies showed that 75 milligrams of caffeine (equivalent to a cup of coffee) every four hours resulted in sustained mood improvements throughout the day. This is not new or old, because coffee plays a role as a functional drink in daily life. Amazingly, further research has found that coffee aroma can enhance working memory and increase brain alertness. And because coffee drinking comes with social behavior, it can help people increase their energy, improve their concentration and further improve their mood.

Coffee is known to be a brain stimulant that helps maintain alertness, alertness and executive function. However, the ISIC study showed that caffeine intake can regulate and improve mood to some extent. Of course, coffee has more benefits than that.

For those who lack exercise in winter, coffee is also helpful. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) study found that caffeine intake is beneficial to endurance performance (aerobic exercise lasting more than 5 minutes), an increase in endurance capacity, and an effective reduction in perceived fatigue during exercise. However, Code Worker No.6 thinks that you shouldn't care about these things while lying down and swiping your phone (dog head protection)

It's cold, remember to wear more clothes! If possible, give yourself a cup of coffee every day, relax and feel the beautiful world ~
