Drinking a cup of coffee per day had turned out to be a secret of longevity, the researchers said as quoted Dailymail.A unique investigation carried out to find things to help people reach the age of 100 years even though they have high blood pressure. The answer is revealed is to drink a cup of coffee every day.Based on a study that was launched earlier this week, a cup of coffee each day can help the elasticity of blood vessels, which may prevent heart disease.
People who drank one or two cups per day had a level of elasticity of arteries better than a just a little coffee or no coffee never touches.Research subjects are people aged 65 to 100 years on the island of Ikaria in Greece. The island was known by the nickname of the island "longevity" and the third of the population reaching the age of 90 years.Cancer sufferers in the island's 20 percent less than the average population of the West, not even those suffering from dementia (dementia).The island is also a tourist destination since the 6th century, when the tourists visiting the ancient Greek and Roman legendary hot water that can cure pain in joints and skin diseases.Experts in modern times to claim a Mediterranean-style diet is good for the heart plus local honey and local herbal tea also hold the role.Now, regular coffee is also being studied by researchers from the University of Athens in order to determine whether it also makes life longer.They studied 485 people with high blood pressure, which is medically known as hypertension.Hypertension makes the heart grow and consequently the burden of blood vessels no longer pliable and reduced elasticity. In advanced stages, the situation will increase the likelihood of heart attack and stroke.Dr. Christina Chrysohoou, who led the study, admit there is conflicting evidence on the effects of coffee drinking to heart health. Some research suggests that drinking coffee aggravate high blood pressure.However, coffee drinking has become embedded in the tradition of Greek culture so it is important to examine the association of coffee drinking on the island with the "high life expectancy". Chrysohoou said.The blood vessels of the subjects studied suppleness and elasticity.Approximately 56 percent of coffee drinkers that moderate coffee consumption category between one to two drinks a day, have a good vascular health, with their own blood flow similar to younger people.Blood vessels more flexible than those of people who consume little or no coffee.One out of ten people who drank three or more cups of coffee a day lowest darahnya.Temuan vessel flexibility were reported at a congress of The European Society of Cardiology in Stockholm.Dr Chrysohoou said coffee drinkers consume an average of 25-50 ml of coffee a day. Greek coffee and other coffee have the same kasiat.He estimates that, among other coffee contains caffeine and antioxidants may improve vascular function by enhancing the ability to absorb nitric oksit, the absorption is impaired in hypertensive patients.However, drinking too much coffee can cause a loss of impact. One of the critical findings that moderate coffee drinkers drink to relax and enjoy it."They are social, with friends in the cafeteria or family at home, discussing everyday problems and relax. That's what happens in a healthy soul, and it is important psychologically, "said Chrysohoou.
