Discovered a way to prolong the effects of coffee

Whether it's your morning cup of coffee or a coffee break with friends, caffeine helps fuel your day.

An expert has shared the special ingredient that can prolong the effects of a cup of coffee. That is grapefruit, according to the New York Post.

Grapefruit contains an active ingredient that can prolong the effects of caffeine to help you overcome afternoon drowsiness and continue to stay awake at work.

Grapefruit contains an active ingredient that can prolong the effects of caffeine.

Dr. Michelle Francl, professor of chemistry at Bryn Mawr College (USA), said: If you eat grapefruit close to the time you drink coffee, you can increase the time caffeine stays in your body.

This can increase the effects of caffeine and avoid unwanted afternoon slump.

Explaining why eating grapefruit around coffee has this magical effect, scientists reported that it is thanks to naringin - the substance that creates the bitter taste in grapefruit, which has the effect of slowing the breakdown of caffeine in the body. However, it does not change the process of metabolizing caffeine, according to the New York Post.

Many studies have found that coffee can reduce the risk of cancer, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dementia. However, other studies have found that it can increase the risk of high blood pressure.

Drinking more than four cups of coffee a day can raise blood pressure, the UK's National Health Service warns.

A 2022 review analysis of nearly 30 studies including nearly 1.2 million people also found that drinking three to four cups of coffee a day could reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by 27 percent, according to the Daily Mail .

The healthiest coffee is black, with no sugar or fat.
