Experts have cautioned against a morning cup of coffee before breakfast, warning of the potential negative health implications of drinking coffee on an empty stomach. Researchers from the University of Bath have advised making sure to line your stomach prior to that first sip of caffeine, which they say could significantly impact a person's glucose control.
As previously reported by the Daily Express, research showed sleep disruption and coffee intake can both independently impact glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity among healthy adults. Blood glucose, which is required for energy, is carried to your body cells through your blood. It's important to keep glucose levels within a healthy range to help prevent serious health concerns from arising, such as heart disease, kidney disease, and diabetes.
