Drinking coffee on an empty stomach to lose weight?
Coffee slimming effect
I believe everyone has heard of the effect of coffee on weight loss. However, please don't misunderstand that all coffee can lose weight. The coffee we often talk about with weight loss mainly refers to black coffee, the kind of coffee with milk and sugar. Drinking too much will only make you fatter and fatter. Black caffeine can help the body contract blood vessels, promote the body's metabolism, increase the consumption of heat energy to accelerate fat decomposition, and accelerate the body to expel excess water. It is effective in removing edema on the face and eyes. When exercising, the caffeine contained in coffee can help the body burn subcutaneous fat, convert it into exercise energy, and turn fat into muscle. Therefore, if you want to lose weight, you should look for black coffee before drinking it.
Coffee should not be drunk on an empty stomach
Since black coffee has such a good weight loss effect, some girls can't wait to try it and even drink coffee without eating anything. In fact, coffee is not suitable for drinking on an empty stomach. First of all, coffee stimulates the secretion of gastric acid. Even if it is drunk without an empty stomach, it will be irritating to the stomach. Therefore, drinking coffee that is already irritating on an empty stomach can easily cause "stomach injury", thus affecting the digestion and absorption of gastric function, which can lead to gastric ulcers, and patients with gastric ulcers should pay more attention not to drink coffee on an empty stomach.
Generally speaking, it is best to drink coffee after breakfast and lunch for a period of time, or between meals, because this can not only promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and help digestion, but also decompose the high-calorie and high-fat food you have just eaten., and will not cause irritation to the stomach. But don't drink coffee immediately after or while eating, as this will affect the gastrointestinal absorption of minerals and other nutrients in food.
How to drink coffee to lose weight
1. Don't drink coffee with high-calorie foods
Coffee and cake are a favorite afternoon tea pairing for many white-collar workers. But cakes, especially cream cakes, are high in calories. Even if coffee has a good weight-loss effect, when paired with cakes or biscuits, the effect is almost zero.
2. Drink coffee without sugar
If you are not used to the bitter taste of coffee, you can add a little milk, but never add sugar, because sugar will hinder the decomposition of fat and increase calorie intake.
3. Drink lightly roasted coffee
The caffeine content in coffee beans will decrease as the roasting temperature becomes higher, so deeply roasted coffee is not suitable for losing weight. To lose weight, drink light roasted coffee, such as lighter American coffee.
