Hey guys!
I'm Luke and I'm a freshman here at the University of Wisconsin – Madison and I
have a question for you.
How many of you guys drink coffee, and if you do, how much?
Well, if you do, then you're like 83% of other Americans.
However, I'm a part of that 17%, as I've never had a cup of coffee before in my life.
What I'm here to do today is to talk to those who feel they are too addicted to coffee,
or those who are looking for a reason to quit drinking coffee, or those who are like me,
and just think that coffee isn't good for you, I'm going to tell you what coffee does
to your body and why you shouldn't be drinking it.
So for starters, many of us know that coffee contains caffeine.
What caffeine does is increase the release of norepinephrine and dopamine neurotransmitters
in your brain, which causes you to have that alert and awake feeling those first couple
cups of coffee.
However, as you continue to drink it your body builds up a tolerance to that, so it
takes more and more coffee for you to feel that alert and awake feeling.
However, when you drink more and more, what it does is it raises your blood pressure and
increases your heart rate, which can lead to developing anxiety and jitters which can
later lead to panic attacks.
Second, the caffeine disrupts your sleep schedule.
So one night it wakes you up at one or two in the morning, and then the next day at one
or two in the afternoon, you're feeling tired again.
So, you have another cup of coffee, which then disrupts your future sleep schedule,
and then from there on, it's just a continual process.
Next, I'm not going to claim that caffeine is an addictive, however it acts like one,
and for those who drink a lot of coffee and then try and quit by going cold turkey, they
experience extreme withdrawal symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, and irritability.
And then also, just coffee in general yellows your teeth and dehydrates your skin, which
can cause wrinkles, and I don't think any of us want that.
So, now you might say to me, "Well Luke, that's why I drink decaf coffee" so let's
talk about that.
In order to make decaf coffee, the coffee beans are rinsed in chemicals that essentially
dissolve the caffeine inside those beans.
However, it doesn't do its full job.
So, when you're drinking that decaf coffee, there is still some caffeine in there, which
means you can still get addicted to it.
Also, coffee beans in general already have enough pesticides and chemicals on them.
So, by drinking decaf, you're putting even more unwanted chemicals into your body.
Now, don't get me wrong, there are some claims that coffee does have some health benefits.
However, many of us don't just have one cup every now and then for the health benefits.
We have multiple cups a day to try and feel that alert and awake feeling and that's
when coffee starts to become a problem.
Thank you guys for watching today.
