Stay up late and drink espresso to cheer you up. Driving on the highway is in danger of crashing.

Cao Ying said in the article that she stayed up late at work and had a cup of espresso to cheer her up, only to find that she had "sudden palpitations, difficulty breathing, numbness, cramps and almost crashed" on the highway at night.

The son and mother are always with her.

As for the cause of the disease, Cao Ying mentioned in the original Weibo article: "probably caffeine poisoning plus blood potassium deficiency, plus I have asthma and so on." Anyway, it's safer for my body to be insulated from coffee in the future. "

After this incident, Cao Ying also called on everyone through Weibo: "taking good care of yourself is also a way to love your family. Alas, after the robbery, I hope everyone is safe and healthy!"

Normal coffee drinking does not directly induce asthma. It is not healthy to drink more coffee to cheer you up.

As for the possibility of caffeine poisoning in coffee and asthma mentioned by Cao Ying on Weibo, doctors said that normal coffee drinking will not cause asthma, and there is no direct relationship between coffee drinking and asthma attacks. However, long-term excessive consumption of coffee may cause health hazards, generally limited to no more than two cups of coffee a day.

It is an unhealthy habit to refresh yourself by drinking coffee. Because although caffeine is refreshing, it can only last for a short time, and it consumes B vitamins related to nerve and muscle coordination in the body, while people who lack B vitamins are more likely to get tired and are more likely to form a vicious circle. develop the habit of relying on coffee, the demand is more and more, but the effect is getting worse and worse. In addition, the diuretic effect of caffeine will cause lack of water in the human body, and insufficient water in the body will also produce fatigue and drowsiness.

There is also a particular time for drinking coffee. It is best to drink in the afternoon, if you drink espresso at night, you can excite your nerves too much and cause insomnia. Pay attention to pregnant women, infants, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular patients, neurasthenia and insomnia should not drink coffee.

Excessive consumption of coffee may induce symptoms such as palpitations in patients with severe hypoglycemia

Cao Ying mentioned drinking a cup of espresso in the afternoon on Weibo, but did not mention whether she ate on time. If you drink a lot of espresso on an empty stomach and eat too much caffeine, it may lead to rapid heartbeat, chest tightness, palpitations and other discomfort.

Doctors said that coffee can also accelerate the body's calorie consumption, when calorie consumption accelerates, it is likely to lead to hypoglycemia. When hypoglycemia occurs, the body immediately activates the mechanism of raising blood sugar, using stored sugar to raise blood sugar as much as possible, accompanied by sympathetic excitement, such as sweating, pallor, palpitations (heart rate), hunger, anxiety, nervousness, limb tremors and mild elevated blood pressure. The faster the decrease of blood glucose, the more obvious the above symptoms.

For the sake of your health and travel safety, it is recommended that you try not to stay up late to drink coffee frequently.
