A Comparative Study between Coffee and Milk
Theoretical Background
Coffee has being blamed for so many ills from causing diseases and cancers to many people. Recent study states that coffee intake is not bad at all and doesn’t find any health benefits in causing cancer and diseases. However these studies state that a mild intake of unfiltered coffee can increase cholesterol levels. Newer studies have also shown that coffee may have benefits, such as protecting against Parkinson's disease, type 2 diabetes and liver cancer also it has high levels of antioxidants. The main ingredient in coffee is caffeine, which acts as a central nervous system stimulant. Stimulants can give you a false feeling of energy, causing your body to experience a "spike and crash" syndrome. They can cause you to become restless and jittery. When we rely on stimulants for our energy, we take our bodies on a sort of roller coaster ride. Many of us wake up tired and drag ourselves to the kitchen to make a pot of coffee.
Milk contains calcium. Calcium is a mineral that the body needs for numerous functions, including building and maintaining bones and teeth, blood clotting, the transmission of nerve impulses, and the regulation of the heart’s rhythm. Ninety-nine percent of the calcium in the human body is stored in the bones and teeth. The remaining includes the strengthen of teeth and bones and it could also help in the muscles. Tests at Loughborough University's school of sport showed that milk keeps the body rehydrated four times longer than either water or Powerade, a sports drink made by Coca-Cola. Physiologist Susan Shirreffs said milk is rich in sodium, potassium and other vital salts lost in large quantities through sweat. In addition, the combination of sugar, fat and protein found in milk means it is removed from the body less slowly than other drinks. Dr. Shirreffs looked at how well different drinks rehydrated a group of young men and women in their early 20s after they had trained on exercise bikes in a hot room. With
