Drinking coffee in hot weather has a harmful effect on the body in the heat with existing problems with blood vessels and the heart, said a well-known expert.
Nutritionist Mikhail Ginzburg warned about the harmful properties of coffee in the heat for the heart. According to him, people who have chronic cardiovascular disorders or diseases should stop taking this drink in the heat. The expert warned that it is better not to drink coffee in general with these problems, but in hot weather it can be especially insidious and harmful for heart patients and hypertensive patients.
“If a person has arterial hypertension, there are interruptions in the work of the heart and he reacts to coffee, then this is an undesirable drink for him, especially in the heat,” Mikhail Ginzburg explained in an interview with Moscow 24.
The specialist recalled that coffee has the ability to increase blood pressure, specifically affecting the blood vessels. Its stimulating and tonic effect, with increased sensitivity to caffeine, provokes a deterioration in well-being – increased anxiety and restlessness, sweating, increased urination and development of dehydration.
