The decrease in metabolic syndrome risk by coffee and tea beverages

Specialized journal (electronic version) of the month of nutrition, and the intake of coffee and tea drinks, related research studies that examined the metabolic syndrome risk, had been reported from the Italian group (University of Catania). (Eur J Nutr. 2014 Nov 4.) In the past a lot of research, Coffee and green tea, health maintenance and lifestyle-related disease prevention effect by ingestion of black tea has been shown. One polyphenol contained in coffee, antioxidant effect of chlorogenic acid, It is believed that effect through the action, such as green tea catechin. In this study, Coffee and the consumption of tea drinks, associated with the metabolic syndrome risk has been verified. In particular, As part of the cross-sectional study conducted in Eastern Europe, We examined the subject in Poland of adult 8,821 people (women 51.4%). As a result of the analysis, The group are taking three or more cups of coffee and tea drinks per day, Women are many, are young, there are education and vocational background of more higher education from the Middle East, energy intake was correlated with factors that big. Also, in a high intake group of coffee, Compared to the group of one cup less per day, BMI and waist circumference is low, Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, also TG low, HDL values ​​are found correlation that high. In the high-intake group of tea drinks, Although BMI and waist circumference was found to be low, Diastolic blood pressure was higher than the low-intake group. After correction in the confounding factor, Intake of coffee and tea beverages, It is that a significant negative correlation with the metabolic syndrome risk was observed. (OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.66, 0.86 and OR 0.79, 95% CI 0.67, 0.92, respectively) Out of metabolic syndrome elements, The was negatively correlated high intake and significantly coffee, Waist circumference, High blood pressure, Was TG. Also, Intake of tea beverages, For upper body obesity and fasting blood glucose level, Although negative correlation was observed in women, Significant correlation in men did not show. From the above data, Risk-lowering effect of metabolic syndrome by ingestion of coffee and tea drinks are suggested. In DHC, we have a variety of tea, herbal tea, coffee, decaffeinated beverages and commercialized. By previous epidemiological studies, reduction of lifestyle-related diseases risk by ingestion of coffee has been known. For example, ingestion of type 2 diabetes risk reduction due to coffee, reduced risk of stroke, lowering depression risk, decrease in liver cancer risk, and suppressing reduction of cognitive function. The coffee contains a chlorogenic acid is one of phytochemicals, lifestyle diseases preventive effect via anti-oxidative effects has been suggested. (As a major component other than caffeine in coffee, ferulic acid (ferulic acid), caffeic acid (caffeic acid,), chlorogenic acid (chlorogenic acid) are known, it indicates any antioxidant effect. Of these chlorogenic acid is relatively abundant in the middle.) This epidemiological studies and clinical trials of up to, improvement of hypertension, reduction of cardiovascular disease (atherosclerotic disease) risk, such as an anti-cancer effect has been reported. For example, research such as the following have been known. Total mortality and cardiovascular disease risk reduction effect of coffee consumption: meta-analysis Relationship between the intake and urinary cancer of coffee @ meta-analysis The prostate cancer risk reduction effect of the intake of coffee @ meta-analysis And liver cancer risk reduction effect of coffee Association between intake and prostate cancer risk of coffee The oropharyngeal cancer risk reduction effect of the intake of coffee Relationship of chocolate and coffee intake and liver function @ HIV-HCV co-infected persons Intake of coffee to suppress depression risk women
