Don't drink coffee after dinner

After lunch or a delicious dinner, the more complete if it ends with a delicious cup of coffee. However, researchers from the University of Guelph in Canada warns that drinking coffee after eating fatty foods can increase blood sugar levels up to two-fold.

Apparently, fat affects the body's ability to produce insulin and distribute it to the muscles, triggering a blood sugar rises to the level of potentially dangerous.

"Finally we found that fat and caffeinated coffee could damage the communication between the intestine and pancreas, which can cause we can not clean the sugar from the body easily," said study author, Marie-Soleil Beaudoin.

The research team found that those who drank two cups of caffeinated coffee drinks five hours after digesting fat, blood sugar levels 32 percent higher than those who do not eat fatty foods or beverages. In subsequent testing, showed that blood sugar levels increased by 65 percent compared to when the respondent does not digest fat and caffeinated coffee.

"We have known for years that people with type 2 diabetes risk should limit their caffeine intake. But if the limit intake of saturated fats found in red meat, processed meat, and fast food, and chose a decaf coffee, can improve glucose tolerance , "said Marie-Soleil.
