Coffee and Diabetes

Coffee and Diabetes ()

  „In relation to Type 1 diabetes, published research has shown that a modest amount of caffeine can increase awareness of the warning symptoms associated with the onset of a hypoglycaemic episode, and thus allow the patient to take action to avoid such an event (1).  Furthermore, research has also demonstrated that the ingestion of caffeine in amounts equivalent to that found in 2 to 3 cups of filter coffee (180mg) had a beneficial effect on heart rate variability (2). Heart Rate Variability is a measure for the variation of the individual heart beats.  A reduction in heart rate variability may be associated with increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.“
