All of us have a variety of reasons to wake up happy every morning. And for coffee lovers, there is only one reason – a cup of strong aromatic coffee! Yes. The very thought of coffee can instantly work magic on many of us. Its earthy aroma and strong flavour really works wonders in uplifting our moods and gifting us the instant happiness.
And this is not just a belief. It’s an experience for many of us. What is the secret that makes us crave for a cup of coffee when we are sad, alone, or in need of some good idea? You think there is some secret behind this. Yes, there is!
And another good news:
The secret behind why coffee can boost our happiness levels is scientifically proven. As you move ahead in this article, you will know the science-based reason why coffee makes us feel so happy.
You can’t buy happiness but you can buy coffee and that’s pretty close.
The science behind why coffee makes us happy
Coffee is a rich trove of many chemicals that play an important role in maintaining our overall health. A cup of coffee has:
• 2-Ethylphenol: A chemical that keeps us active and alert.
• 3,5 Dicaffeoylquinic acid: A component responsible for protecting us from neuron damage.
• Trigonelline: A form of vitamin B3 that fights with the cavity-causing bacteria in our mouth.
• Niacin: Vitamin B3, which is cell-rejuvenating and prevents dementia.
Well, these are the components that as we can see are providing many health benefits. So what’s do with coffee and happiness? The feeling of happiness and coffee has a little background story.
Here we go:
When you drink coffee, it mimics a neurochemical called Adenosine. This is a chemical that makes us feel sleepy and turns us down when we are tired. When caffeine enters your body, it works with the receptors that detect adenosine and blocks them from performing their regular function.
In other words, when you take coffee, the caffeine interferes with adenosine – the sleep causing chemical – receptors and prevents you from getting sleep. This is how you stay alert when you take coffee. Okay, what’s next?
When the adenosine receptors are blocked, your body has no other choice but to release its own stimulants – dopamine and glutamate – the two chemicals responsible for a feel-good experience for human beings.
It means, your cup of coffee makes you feel happy because coffee stimulates neurotransmitters in our brain. Which are otherwise released only under certain circumstances?
Thus, you’re a cup of coffee is the best driver to kick start the production of neurotransmitters in your brain.
Do you know:
You can also stimulate the release of dopamine by using drugs such as cocaine. But yes, we do know what happens next legally.
Thus, to stimulate your own happiness in a most pleasant way what else is the best choice than to sip that hot coffee. Now, do you believe that our happiness lies in our hands? It sure does, isn’t it?
A point that you have to remember here is a coffee can give you happiness when you drink it in limits. Beyond a certain limit of daily dosage of caffeine, your body develops caffeine resistance and you no longer experience the same euphoric feeling. It’s good to have limits for everything. We can’t agree anymore!
I don’t know how people live without coffee…. I really don’t! – Martha Quinn
Awesome benefits of coffee consumption
Besides making you happy, coffee can offer a wide range of amazing health benefits owing to the chemicals and components that we have seen just now.
A treasure trove of Antioxidants
Yes. Coffee is one of the richest sources of antioxidants that are capable enough to prevent health risks such as cancer and heart diseases. In fact, it is the top source of antioxidants for Americans compared to all other constituents of their diet.
You should note that the level of antioxidants varies with caffeine content. For instance, pure black coffee contains the highest level of antioxidants compared to the decaf version.
Protects Neurons and Nervous System
Caffeine is a proven psychostimulant and its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic properties proved very effective in fighting Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Researchers also found similar effects of caffeine in fighting Parkinson’s disease (PD) in men.
It has also been established that caffeine is protective to your brain and makes it resilient to stress, aging, and neurological diseases.
Effective anti-depressant
Caffeine is a killer of depression. And researches have confirmed that regular consumption of coffee, within prescribed limits, can help in curbing the risk of mental illnesses.
It means your cup of joe can be your best friend in preventing brain inflammation, thanks to the ton of antioxidants loaded in it.
Keeps you alert
This is one of the effects all of us has experienced, in fact, the reason why many of us have fallen in head over heels with coffee. The moment we sip hot coffee we feel energized, alert and active.
小豬劈腿事件
Taiwan pop star Show Luo shamed by ex’s breakup post
Scorned Grace Chow claims singer, aka 'Little Pig,' repeatedly cheated on her and loved orgies
Having been unmasked as a serial love cheat and fan of orgies, the goody two-shoes image of Taiwan mandopop star Show Luo (羅志祥) is tattered beyond repair — so much so that his only hope for forgiveness, according to one follower, is coming up with a cure for COVID-19.
In a post on Thursday (April 23), the 31-year-old influencer Grace Chow (周揚青) confirmed she broke up earlier this year with the massively popular singer and actor, also known as “Little Pig” or Xiao Zhu (小豬), who is 40. The pair have been an item since 2011 and there had even been talk of marriage.
No more. In a blazing break-up letter published under her name on the Sina Weibo microblogging website, Chow detailed how her heart had been broken after scrolling through his phone and finding evidence galore of his many infidelities.
Chow said she had previously caught him cheating but had forgiven him. “Time after time, I forgave your betrayal because I was impressed by your regret and commitment.”
She said Luo had a secret second phone that he used for hookups, alleging he would not only have trysts on work trips abroad but also at the home they shared when she was away. This included one-night stands with fans, colleagues, and many wannabe stars over the entire course of their relationship.
She suggested the Taiwanese actress and singer Butterfly Kaile (簡愷樂) was one of Little Pig’s many booty calls. In a reply on an Instagram post, Chow said she had been tested for sexually transmitted diseases but was in fact STD-free.
“Butterfly should check her body out too,” Chow wrote. She also made the explosive claim that Luo enjoyed “multiplayer games” – or orgies – “that normal people cannot imagine.”
