Doctor: drinking coffee on an empty stomach for a long time can lead to gastrointestinal diseases

Li Yanling, director of the Nutrition Department of the first affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of traditional Chinese Medicine, believes that drinking coffee on an empty stomach will stimulate the intestines and stomach and, to a certain extent, clear stools, but long-term drinking can easily lead to diseases such as gastric ulcers.

Li Yanling, director of the Nutrition Department of the first affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of traditional Chinese Medicine, told CCTV that drinking coffee on an empty stomach has the effect of losing weight because after a night's rest, when drinking coffee on an empty stomach in the morning, the exciting ingredients in coffee will stimulate the intestines and stomach, which will affect the normal absorption of nutrients for breakfast and eventually lead to weight loss. "but this kind of weight loss method is more extreme, it is not recommended to drink coffee on an empty stomach to lose weight." Li Yanling stressed, "long-term fasting coffee drinking, even people with strong gastrointestinal mucosal function, can easily lead to gastric ulcers, gastritis and other adverse symptoms."

In addition, rely on fasting coffee to lose weight, detoxification is too extreme, many people do not apply this method. She reminds beauty lovers not to lose weight quickly in the short term by harming the intestines and stomach.

Li Yanling added that it is necessary to master the right way to drink coffee. She suggests drinking coffee in the morning, during or after lunch, not too late, not on an empty stomach, or too strong.

It is also fastidious to drink coffee.

Expert: coffee is also fastidious.

Drinking coffee during and after meals can replenish energy without harming the body.

In response to the saying that "drinking coffee on an empty stomach in the morning can detoxify and maintain health," Zhang Yan, an executive member of the China Coffee Federation and a senior figure in the coffee industry, believes that although coffee has the effects of refreshing, relieving fatigue and scraping grease, drinking coffee is also fastidious. For example, in Europe, the best time for coffee shop business is in the morning and afternoon. Even if coffee is served in the evening, it is often decaffeinated drinks or coffee with sleep aids such as milk.

Zhang Yan said that now coffee shops are mostly fancy coffee, adding syrup, fruit juice, milk, chocolate, ice cream and other accessories to satisfy consumers with different tastes, while pure coffee is relatively minority because of its bitter taste. For healthy people, it is OK to drink coffee all the year round, but the amount of coffee solids per person per day should be controlled at 30 to 50 grams, and then according to personal taste or habits, choose whether to add excipients, what kind of excipients and coffee concentration.

In the book 101 reasons for Coffee innocence, co-authored by Hu Dayi, chief expert on health education of the Ministry of Health and director of the Cardiology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Malao, former president of the World Heart Federation, and coffee expert Lima, research shows that drinking coffee in some people can induce a kind of stress needed for defecation. Although coffee, as a fat-free food, appears in some diets, coffee diets sometimes fail, mainly because people think that if you get rid of fat, you won't eat too many calories.

From this, it is not difficult to see that experts do not agree with the saying that drinking coffee on an empty stomach in the morning can detoxify and maintain good health, and that drinking coffee on an empty stomach is even more extreme and harmful; although drinking coffee has many benefits, it is also necessary to know how to drink it at the right time and in the right amount.
