Digestive Health: Expert Reveals Which Coffees to Choose and Which to Avoid
Madrid, Spain - Dr. María Muñoz, a specialist in the digestive system, has recently highlighted the varying effects of different coffee types on human digestion. In a widely viewed online video, Dr. Muñoz provided insights into the potential health implications of popular coffee choices, offering guidance for consumers looking to safeguard their digestive well-being. According to Dr. Muñoz, capsule coffees, while convenient, often contain plastic or aluminum that can release furans when heated. "These furans are toxic compounds that concentrate more in sealed capsules due to heat," she stated, also noting the significant environmental impact of these products. For soluble coffee, Dr. Muñoz warned about the presence of sugars and additives, and the formation of acrylamides during intense roasting and drying processes. "Acrylamides are substances classified as potentially carcinogenic and are known to cause reflux and digestive discomfort, especially for those with sensitive stomachs," she explained. Dr. Muñoz strongly advocates for whole bean coffee, preferably 100% Arabica with a natural roast, which can be ground at home. "This option is less processed and better preserves antioxidants, flavor, and aroma," she advised. "It also allows you to control the grind type, quantity, and freshness, making it perfect for digestive health and reducing exposure to toxins." The specialist emphasized that the goal is not to eliminate coffee but to make informed choices. "It's about knowing which type suits you best," she concluded, urging viewers to consider their digestive health when selecting their daily brew.
