Not a few people who start their activities in the morning by brewing coffee. But because currently undergoing fasting worship, then the time to drink coffee would not want to be moved.
Before quickly brewing coffee at those two times, namely sahur or iftar, you need to first understand the effects of coffee on the body. Especially if our stomach was empty before, because of fasting.
Coffee Can Irritate an Empty Stomach
Coffee can irritate an empty stomach because coffee can stimulate the production of stomach acid. This is quoted from the Healthline page. Thus, it can worsen the symptoms of intestinal disorders.
Symptoms of this disorder include heartburn, nausea, acid reflux, and indigestion. Not only that, a study in the British Journal of Nutrition also found that it can significantly disrupt the blood sugar control system when drinking coffee on an empty stomach.
The feeling of restlessness that appears after drinking coffee, can also be felt more quickly if you haven't eaten, and appear later if you have eaten.
Suggested Time to Drink Coffee When Fasting
That way, a good time to drink coffee is when the stomach is full of food first. You can drink coffee when you break your fast, but start with plain water and a little sweet food.
Do not drink coffee when you drink coffee because coffee has a high acidity level and has the potential to make stomach acid rise.
How about sahur time?
Be careful, drinking coffee at dawn can potentially have a diuresis effect and cause dehydration. If you don't really need to drink coffee, then there's no need to drink coffee at sahu.
