Coffee Addiction - How Serious is It?


!±8± Coffee Addiction - How Serious is It?

You may not know it but coffee is the worlds most widely used stimulant come drug. This is due mainly to its popularity worldwide. The symptoms of coffee addiction are allot like those of many recreational drugs used in today's society, such as the following:-

Loss of sleep, Increased blood pressure, Can raise blood cholesterol levels, Deplete the levels of vitamin 'B' in the body, Depression, Chronic headaches, Increased levels of blood sugar, Irritation of the bladder and stomach.

Caffeine

The ingredient within coffee that makes it addictive is caffeine. Researchers and some health conscious individuals have for some time now been studying the effects that caffeine can have on the body. They have found that it acts in much the same way as alcohol and nicotine in that they all over-stimulate the adrenal gland. In doing so they make you hypersensitive (i.e. hyper) thus leading to a natural high. This is why most people find that drinking coffee first thing in the morning is great for waking you up. It's not actually a bad way to start your day but things can get out of hand and when consumption gets too excessive, just like any addiction, it can lead to problems and in a lot of cases depression.

As a natural substance that exists in certain plants, such as the coffee plant, it is only natural that coffee and caffeine go hand in hand. However, you can now buy most mass produced coffees in the decaf variety, which contains minimal amounts of caffeine, but it's worth noting the flavour of your coffee will not be the same.

Conclusion

Moderation - That's the key to most things in life. If you over indulge too often you risk becoming dependant. I love my coffee, but at the same time I like to take a brief break from drinking it too regularly. This not only helps me to avoid being dependent of caffeine but after about 3 maybe 4 days of not having a cup, I find that the sensation and tastes I get after my break are more intense and therefore more enjoyable. Let's face it, isn't that the reason why we drink coffee in the first place? I know I do.
