Coffee producing countries

Worldwide coffee producing countries are between the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn, where the climate is ideal for hotand humid. Countries can be grouped broadly into four geographical areas: 

Concacaf Mexic-especially Arabica generally very high quality(Mexico, Panama and Caribbean islands).

ASIA-producing washed Arabica and washed Robusta  as well as natural (India, Indonesia, New Guinea). The world market for coffee, the species occupies 75-80% Arabica, Robusta occupying the remaining 20-25%. Annual world production reaches about 91 million bags, each weighing on average about 60 kg, over 5 million tons annually. Central and South America produce about 70% of coffee on the world market, followed by 20% from Asia and Africa by 10%.

Coffee has adverse effects

If you have chronic diseases, in amounts as small coffee can increase your problems: The doctor who briefs us: ”Coffee is to be avoided for those suffering from heart disease, stomach problems (gastritis, ulcers), those with digestive disorders, insomnia sufferers, people with depression. In their case, any amount of coffee will worsen the existing disease. ” 

There are situations where you shouldn’t drink even a drop of coffee, even if you don’t have any illness: According to the doctor, coffee has the effect to put you on guard, to make yourself actively (intellectually and physically), put the body in extreme situations and defense causes release of hormones such as adrenaline and noradrenaline. This explains the wake-up coffee action. It helps to focus, increases your respiratory rate, heart rate, stimulates gastric acid secretion.

The doctor concludes that coffee is not good to cosume in extreme situations: “So it is wrong to use coffee to” wake up”when you’re tired, because it’s like you whip your own body.You would drain it of all the resources that are already in the red zone.  It is also to be avoided if you’re stressed! Drinking coffee just frees those hormones that you need when you’re not under pressure (adrenaline). Although you tend to use coffee to focus better if you are busy, then you will get an even more pronounced state of alarm.

How does coffee work?

Coffee is controversial, and its properties are studied intensively because of its composition. In coffee there is a substance named caffeine that affects the body when we enjoy a cup of coffee. A general medical doctor, states how much caffeine we find in a pot of coffee. ”The content of caffeine in a cup of 180 ml, is 80-140 mg in boiled coffee and , 60-100 mg instant coffee”. So if you prepare a cup of instant coffee for 180 ml, you will consume between 60-100 mg of caffeine. 

The reason why so much coffee is consumed is because: stimulates the central system, increase intellectual and physical capacity. But this benefit may be altered, overshadowed by many factors and you may end up with a lot of problems. According to the doctor, the effects of coffee (good and bad) are related to the amount of caffeine you drink and your overall health status. These things you must keep in mind when drinking coffee.

If you consume more than 500 mg of caffeine per day, you will have problems even if you’re healthy: The doctor gives details: ”Abuse of coffee comes with many immediate harmful effects. Anxiety, agitation, restlessness, nervousness, insomnia, gastric irritation (when your stomach burns),palpitations. All this can become long-term problems . If these are the symptoms you experience, you should interrupt coffee consumption, and in 8 hours, you will recover”.
