Coffee has its health benefits, but it's good to skip it over time for other drinks. Here's why.
1. Part of the plaque will go away from the teeth
Coffee greatly affects the color of your teeth, and you probably don't rush to brush them right after every cup of aromatic drink. Black tea, by the way, also affects the color of the teeth, but not as much as coffee. Therefore, it is better to switch to green tea.
2. Less frequent heartburn
Caffeine negatively affects the muscle between the stomach and the esophagus, which causes gastric juice to enter the esophagus, causing heartburn. Coffee advocates like to say that tea also contains caffeine - yes, it is, but in a standard cup of tea, even strong, it is much less than in the same portion of coffee.
3. You will sleep better
If you suffer from insomnia and other sleep problems, it is definitely time to give up coffee and switch to tea with chamomile and lemon balm in the evenings.
4. You will become calmer
At first, of course, you will, on the contrary, be more annoyed by the "withdrawal syndrome". But if you endure this period, then the nervousness will recede and calmness will come. Also, coffee interferes with the absorption of magnesium by the body, due to which the work of the nervous system is disrupted, cramps in the limbs occasionally occur.
5. You will suffer less from dehydration
To replenish fluid balance in the body, one extra cup of water should be added for every cup of coffee (in addition to the normal daily requirement). And if you drink a lot of coffee - but don't drink a lot of water, then dehydration is guaranteed. Tea does not have this effect.
