so today I’m going to talk about some of the other benefits of coffee that go beyond just waking you up in the morning in other words I’m going to give you some really important reasons to drink coffee that being said I’m not recommending coffee if it gives you anxiety it increases your heart rate and if it prevents you from sleeping and I’m not recommending large amounts of coffee just one cup a day I am the human guinea pig for drinking way too much coffee in college I drank pots of coffee and it really burned out my adrenals because too much coffee can increased cortisol and adrenaline so why am I recommending coffee in the first place well there’s some different chemicals in the coffee itself as well as this one chemical called caffeine and the benefits of coffee come from both caffeine and these other chemicals and just so you know caffeine is a phyto chemical okay it comes from Plants It’s actually an insecticide and it’s in 30 plants but the question is how can an insecticide be good for us well sometimes a little poison or a little stress can actually create benefits in our body so what is coffee really it’s just a fermented Coffee Bean that means that they’re interacting with a microb to enhance something about that food I want to talk about these other benefits other than the one that most people know caffeine inhibits a certain compound called adenosine that keeps us awake it normally helps us go to sleep it makes us tired tired well by inhibiting that chemical caffeine will wake you up but let’s get into some of the other things that coffee can do for you it can give you mental acuity it can help you focus it can actually help you actually even learn a little bit better it also speeds up the rate of metabolism it also helps your blood sugars especially if you add some MCT oil or butter to the coffee to make it Bulletproof Coffee there’s some data that shows that it can decrease increase your risk of getting dementia and decrease certain symptoms related to Parkinson’s disease and even Alzheimer’s it has certain properties that can decrease your risk of getting gall stones and that’s because it increases the production of bile and the flow of bile it also has properties to help prevent a kidney stone there’s data to show that it has anti- cancer properties which is interesting and no I don’t think just drinking more coffee is going to get rid of your cancer it has anti-inflammatory properties hepat protection properties it’s basically protection against your liver there’s certain things in coffee like polyphenols that help feed your microbiome there’s a condition called postural hypotension basically you stand up and your blood pressure drops right you feel dizzy coffee can help that if I drink too much coffee more than one cup and later in the day I won’t be able to sleep that well so what I do is I have the one cup of coffee do I put cream in it yes I do do I put sugar in it no I don’t and I don’t use any sweeteners even alternative sugar alcohols in my coffee coffee also helps apparently with exercise performance increasing cardiac output and delaying soreness in your muscles because apparently the neurotransmitters that it activates helps to vasod dilate your lungs also coffee can help decrease the symptoms of being at a high altitude so some people have problems with that well coffee can help that and I think that has to do with the sympathetic nervous system activation more than anything else which is really the strength of how you can adapt to stress coffee can increase mitochondrial biogenesis now what is that basically increases the number of mitochondria in your body coffee also has the ability to increase stomach acid to help you digest now there’s some other researchers I looked at that talked about if you combine certain things with coffee there’s an enhanced effect so for example if you combine alcohol with coffee apparently you’ll have less Jitters okay you’ll feel less jittery if you smoke or take tobacco with coffee apparently the nicotine helps clear out the caffeine a little faster if you take certain medications for a headache or pain the caffeine can help enhance the benefits so this is why anytime I drink coffee I also smoke a cigarette take a little shot of whiskey and take my pain medication and of course I hope you understand now my dry sense of humor I am completely being sarcastic and even birth control pills which personally I do not take can extend the halflife of caffeine which means that the caffeine will stay in your body longer if you’re taking birth control pills now for those of you that decided that you’re going to start drinking coffee you probably need to know how to neutralize the side effects of coffee and for that I put this video up right here check it out
