How Coffee Affects Weight Loss

Coffee is a very popular beverage both in the United States and throughout the rest of the world. In fact, most people who drink coffee drink numerous cups throughout the day. \Many people believe that coffee will help them lose weight. This article will seek to show the truth about whether or not coffee serves any purpose as far as weight loss is concerned.

Coffee contains caffeine, which is a powerful and addictive stimulant. Caffeine is a drug that makes people nervous and fidgety. Caffeine alters blood sugar levels. Caffeine causes people to be hungry and crave food. Caffeine disrupts sleep. Excess caffeine causes headaches, nausea, accelerated heartbeat, and anxiety.

Because coffee alters a person's mood very randomly, it is not a good beverage to drink while trying to lose weight. Coffee has the ability to cause a person to feel hungry without a moment's notice. When the effects of coffee are tapering off, a person will generally feel depressed and want to binge on junk food. The practice of binging on junk food can be counterproductive to your goal of losing weight, depending on how much junk food you eat when binging.

Another reason that coffee is a terrible beverage to drink when trying to lose weight is that coffee adds toxins to your body. When you are trying to lose weight, your body is trying to flush out all toxins from your body.

Coffee is a toxin that shuts down the cleansing process of the body and locks other toxins such as fat inside the body. Therefore, it is wise to quit drinking coffee if you are serious about losing weight.
