For me, blogging best friend in the morning is coffee. In patients with hypertension (high blood pressure-ed) I am often asked about their habit of drinking coffee. It is not surprising if in fact they drank an average of 5 cups of coffee a day! Then I had advised them to abandon the habit of drinking coffee, but coffee from Indonesia has a taste of high and popular all over the world. Loss? Well, before joining a group of people who should not drink coffee and could only swallow hard seeing someone else kiss the sweet black this, it helps us to know "7 Tips Healthy Coffee" the following:
1. Dose
Indeed there is no definitive measure for dosing the coffee that may be consumed. However, most studies reveal that drinking 300 mg of caffeine (about 1 to 3 cups of coffee a day) does not give negative effects on most healthy people.
2. Danger signals
While sipping coffee actually feels good, but often followed by guilt million. Recognize the danger signals of coffee so we know when to stop drinking coffee. Danger signals include: restlessness, palpitations, sleep disturbances and mood disorders (eg, irritability). A coffee drinkers who stopped drinking coffee may experience "caffeine withdrawal" that characterized by throbbing headaches, but these symptoms will disappear after 24-48 hours or get a new dose of caffeine.
3. Listen to the Response Body
Everyone has their own restrictions on the consumption of caffeine. Most people can consume 2 cups of coffee a day without any problems. But there is also experiencing the bad effects with the same amount of coffee consumption. Someone told me after drinking a cup of coffee became unable to sleep through the night, otherwise there is sound asleep after drinking coffee. So, the best way is to listen to the body's own response!
4. Recognize Caffeine Content
After knowing the dose and the response of the body, it helps us to know the content of caffeine in products that often we consume. In order not to copy the recommended dose has been reached, yet we still consume other products that contain caffeine, so feel the bad effects of coffee. Some other products that contain caffeine should be considered such as: soft drinks, coffee candy, tea, chocolate, headache medicine.
Method of processing (roasting and brewing) also affects the content of caffeine in coffee. For example, a study shows, a cup of coffee at Starbucks contains an average of 259 mg of caffeine compared to coffee with the type and size of the same cup at Dunkin Donuts, which only contains 149 mg of caffeine.
From other studies, decaf coffee (coffee without caffeine) good to those who are obese because it can raise HDL ("good" cholesterol) by about 50%. Whereas in those who are not obese can actually lower the HDL cholesterol that can increase the risk of heart disease.

While the coffee mixture with unfavorable alcohol especially in people with liver disorders and coffee with cream mixture should also be avoided to reduce the excess calories. Caffeine also interacts with some drugs. For those who are prescribed medication, should consult a doctor.
