Instant coffee is a popular drink, but it can also be harmful to your health.

The fact is that such a product leads to diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and internal organs.

This statement was made by specialist Alexander Sozykin in a conversation with representatives of the Izvestia publication.

He noted in an interview that negative consequences can occur even despite all the benefits of coffee beans.

As the physiologist explained, it’s all about the processing of the grains.

He said that the instant drink contains a small amount of caffeine and more theobromine, which can lead to drowsiness.

It also contains flavor enhancers, odorants and fragrances, which increase the risk of gastrointestinal diseases (gastritis, ulcers, pancreatitis, etc.).

The scientist noted that coffee becomes a healthier drink if it does not contain harmful additives, but contains essential oils, caffeine, and antioxidants.
