Hello! I have been a doctor for 21 years. My name is Georgy Olegovich Sapego. This article will be a collection of questions and answers.
Question: Something I did not understand at all about cholesterol. As far as I know, foods that increase blood cholesterol levels are meat, poultry, fish, milk, dairy products and eggs. foods saturated with animal fat. Vegetable fats cannot raise cholesterol, since they have a different chemical structure... Coffee is a plant product, whatever one may say, how does it manage to raise cholesterol?
Answer: Blood cholesterol rises from unfiltered coffee in the same way that cholesterol rises from margarine made from vegetable oil. There is not a drop of animal in margarine, but it increases cholesterol worse than anything else. These are tricky biological effects. They do not need to be understood, they must be accepted and reconciled.
Question: Which fats in coffee raise cholesterol levels?
Answer: Kafestol and some other lipids that are retained by filters.
Question: Nicotine is produced by the body itself and is also a powerful antioxidant. Apparently, with age, the body feels its lack?
Answer: Nicotine is produced by plants. It is not produced in our body.
Question: Nicotine, which enters the systems of our body, is produced by the liver. It is endogenous, that is, in other words, natural. In addition, nicotinic acid (vitamin PP) is produced in the gastrointestinal tract, which is a product of nicotine oxidation. You don't know this as a doctor?
Answer: Nicotine is not produced in our body. Nicotinic acid is a vitamin. Vitamins are what our body cannot do. Therefore, nicotinic acid is not produced in our body. Chemists make nicotinic acid in different ways, for the very first time it was actually cooked from nicotine. Now some smokers believe that nicotine is vital for them. This is how they justify their nicotine addiction.
Question: I drink coffee every day and in large quantities, and for years. The diuretic effect is present. Is there something wrong with my metabolism, if "usually" is different?
Answer: The diuretic effect is noticed when yesterday it was not, and today it appeared. If you drink a lot of coffee every day every day, then you cannot physically assess its diuretic effect.
Question: Doctor! I understand that we are talking about natural coffee? What about instant? There is a difference? One cardiologist I know (real), who has worked as a doctor for 30 years, said that it is still unknown what tea or coffee is more harmful to the heart. And natural tea contains more caffeine than instant coffee. Then what, to drink only fruit compote? Answer please!
Answer: There is a difference. Special tables show the caffeine content of different drinks. Tea contains less caffeine. This is a scientific fact. Anyone's personal experience does not matter here. It is advisable to drink something that does not harm your health. Coffee cannot be categorized as either harmful or healthy. Therefore, no one forbids it.
Question: I wonder what is a "cup of coffee"? After all, there are different varieties (blends) of coffee, different preparation methods, different cups and different doses.
Answer: In scientific research, the American cup is usually mentioned. This is 236.588 ml.
Question: Have you conducted research on this topic?
Answer: No. I have not done any research on this topic.
Question: Can decaf coffee be drunk by cores?
Answer: Can. If it's filtered.
Question: Filtered is what?
Answer: Through a paper filter.
Question: You better not write articles like that. And then you are a direct multi-source - you know about coffee, and about cholesterol, and about a variety of diseases you broadcast differently than others. When do you work?
Answer: This is my job, wonderful miracle! Read the profile.
