Will drinking coffee cause gastrointestinal problems?

Such good coffee

That's one cup a day.

But I drink coffee

There was a faint voice floating over

"You drink coffee every day, be careful of stomach problems!"

Indeed, coffee stimulates the intestines and speeds up bowel movements.

It also irritates the stomach

But coffee does not directly cause gastrointestinal problems

And the reactions to the human gastrointestinal tract are different

The higher the concentration of coffee, the more irritating it is to the stomach and intestines.

Nowadays, there are many flavors of coffee.

Americano, Latte, Flat White, Caprese, Mocha, etc.

Milk and other ingredients to some extent

Can relieve gastrointestinal irritation

(PS: Except for people with lactose intolerance~)

In other words, does coffee cause gastrointestinal discomfort?

It has to do with coffee ingredients, concentration and personal habits.

In short, try not to drink coffee with too high concentration~

Who is not suitable for drinking coffee?

Coffee is refreshing, laxative and liver-protecting

But coffee is not for everyone.

For example, the following three

The first type is those with weak stomachs

For example, drinking coffee will cause diarrhea

The second type is irregular heartbeat caused by drinking coffee

My heart rate speeds up and I feel uneasy after drinking coffee.

My face flushed, I almost thought it was a feeling of heartbeat

The third type is those who are intolerant to caffeine

For example, skin allergies, itching

Respiratory system: sneezing, allergic asthma

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc.

I don't recommend drinking coffee.
