Srce vam lupa kada popijete kafu? Kardiolozi objašnjavaju zašto i kada je "lupanje u grudima" opasno
Kafa je najkonzumiraniji napitak na svetu, a prosečan ljubitelj kafe popije oko tri šolje dnevno, što je velika dnevna doza kofeina.
TL;DR
- Caffeine in coffee boosts adrenaline, causing a faster pulse and mild blood pressure increase.
- Some individuals are more sensitive to caffeine due to genetics, pre-existing heart conditions, or medications.
- Other caffeinated beverages, like energy drinks, can have a stronger effect due to higher caffeine content and added stimulants.
- Experiencing chest pain, dizziness, or fainting along with a fast heart rate requires immediate medical attention.
- Individuals with heart disease or cardiovascular risk factors should consult a doctor if they experience a fast heart rate after coffee.
- Tips to prevent or calm a racing heart include drinking coffee with food, sipping slowly, and drinking cold water.
- Cold water can stimulate the vagus nerve, helping to slow the heart rate, and also dilutes caffeine concentration.
- Immersing the face in cold water and slow, deep breathing activate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation.
- Light stretching or a short walk can help burn off excess adrenaline.
- If coffee consistently causes a rapid heart rate, it may be best to avoid it or opt for decaf.
