According to The Guardian, a new study has reached a remarkable conclusion that drinking coffee can help prevent arrhythmia in patients with reflux.
The experiment Does eliminating coffee help avoid heartburn? shows that people who still drink coffee have a significantly lower risk of heart rhythm complications than those who reduce or stop caffeine.
This study was conducted by Professor Gregory Marcus and his colleagues in the context of more than 10 million Americans living with arrhythmia (A-fib), a disease that can lead to anxiety, heart failure, blood clots and stroke.
For many years, the health sector has often recommended that patients withhoi should avoid caffeine to limit increased heart rate. However, this new result may make many people reconsider their habits.
The trial lasted six months, with volunteers from the US, Canada and Australia, all of whom had been drinking regular coffee for the previous five years.
Participants were randomly divided into two groups: the group that cut caffeine and the group that maintained at least one cup per day.
They are monitored with wearable devices, electrocardiograms, and remote checks to determine the timing of an abnormal heartbeat.
The results showed that the coffee drinking group had a 17% lower risk of developing irregular heartbeat and the duration of the first arrhythmia was also slower.
According to Professor Marcus, this discovery shows that caffeine in coffee can provide certain protective effects for people with vicious vibration.
However, the study was limited when the group of authors did not monitor the amount of caffeine from other drinks and did not control changes in the participants' diet or exercise. Therefore, the conclusion needs to be understood more cautiously.
Dr. Johanna Contreras, a cardiologist at Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital (New York), believes that moderate coffee consumption is safe for people with low tones.
However, she did not confirm that this was a heart protection method. You can drink a cup of coffee in the morning and its okay if you have a stir, says Johanna Contreras.
Although the research results provide a positive perspective, experts still recommend that each patient should consult a doctor before changing their habits. Caffeine may benefit some people, but it can also have other effects depending on the location and condition of the disease.
