ResponderEliminarDrinking coffee could activate defenses that fight body fat, a discovery that could have potential implications in the battle against obesity and diabetes.
Plastic is called materials made up of a variety of organic compounds. The plastic has taken to the world of fashion to not destroy the ocean, or drown the fish, says Michael Preysman about his brand Everlane.
In my opinion I think that taking plastic to the world of fashion is a good thing since it means that less plastic contaminates the world and can be recycled into something we use every day, such as underwear, t-shirts, pants

Coffee, grain whose extract we consume in delicious drinks, cold or hot, comes from a bush called coffee tree. The origin of this plant is in the territory of the current Ethiopia, although it is also believed that it may arise in the Arabian peninsula, in the recent Yemen.
ResponderEliminarThe dimensions of the coffee tree vary between 3 and 4 meters in height, although it reaches up to ten meters. From the coffee tree fruits or berries are extracted that are of a reddish color. Its pulp is sweet and with a peculiar smell. The seeds are extracted from the fruit, known to us as coffee.
Coffee carries in its chemical composition a variety of fifteen hundred substances, which participate in many processes within the organism.

Integrate into the diet
Provide caffeine to the body
As an antioxidant
Bring a lot of nutrients to the body

It is customary that the drink is coffee, and that the dessert is cake, rolls or cookies.

ResponderEliminarCoffee is a natural stimulant capable of changing the sensation of latasancio, for a more energetic state un a feur minutes. But there are other reasnsis why it has become an indispensable drink in the lives of millions of people. Both its flavor, aroma and properties made it the perfect reason for meetings between friends, colleagues and family, for several centuries.
ResponderEliminarCoffee is obtained from the seed of the coffee fruit, a shrub belonging to the Rubiaceae family. There are many different species of coffee trees, Coffee is the best known.
Due to the diversity of species and the different conditions of the crop, it is possible to find a unique flavor and aroma in each grain.
The coffee seed is similar to a small cherry when ripe, because its skin acquires a reddish hue, while the pulp that protects the grain becomes sweet.
By grinding these seeds, after a previous drying and roasting process, the ideal powder is obtained for making the coffee we know and enjoy.
The plastic in the world of fashion can be bad if the plastic used is recycled because it is a way of not damaging the environment so much, but if the plastic used in clothing and not recycled will pollute the enviroument and can be very harmful.
Nowadays, coffee is a very common drink all over the world. People usually drink it for breakfast or after lunch. Coffee has advantages and disadvantages.
ResponderEliminarOn the one hand, coffee can be very good for us. There are many studies that show us that drinking a cup of coffee a day is good for us. Besides, it can help us lose weight. Acording to scientistics from the University of Nottingham drinking a cup of coffee can stimulate 'brown fat', the body's own fat-fighting defenses, which could be the key to tackling obesity and diabetes.
On the other hand, just as coffee can be very good for us, it can also be harmful. In addition, wehave to be careful with the amount of coffee we drink; drinking more than three cups of coffee a day can be bad because with coffee our heart rate is increased. Furthemore, you also have to control the hours you drink it because if you drink coffee before you go to sleep you may have a lot of energy and you may not be able to rest properly.
All in all, drinking coffee is good but we shouldn't abuse it. From my point of view, we shouldn't drink coffee every day and if we do it, no more than a cup.

ResponderEliminarCoffeE is a type of drink that contains caffeine which can be addictive. Many people like drinking coffee in the morning, in the afternoon or even at night and they think that drinking a lot of coffee can be bad for your health , but , do you know that coffee could help you to lose weight ?.
ResponderEliminarScientists from the University of Nottingham have discovered that drinking a cup of coffee can stimulate brown fat . Brown fat is one of two types of fat found in humans , whose main function is to generate body heat by burning calories (sugar and fat). Moreover,only children have this type of fat , but recently it was discovered that adults can have brown fat too.
But , obviously, drinking coffe is not the best idea to lose weight . It´s always much better to do exercise and carry a healthy life , as well as eat healthy food rich in fiber and protein . In addition, you shouldn´t drink coffe before you go to sleep because it contains a lot of caffeine and that gives you so much energy that you don´t need when you go to bed.
I think that drinking coffe is fine but no more than a cup a day . From my point of view ,it is better to doexercise if you want to lose weight .

ResponderEliminarCoffee is a drink with caffeine that many people drink for pleasure or as a remedy to try to be awake during work. Many of them think that coffee could help them lose weight. Is this real or is it a false myth?
ResponderEliminarNowadays,it is very common to see a person with a cup of coffee in his/her hand going to work or people who meet in a coffee shop to take a coffee while they are talking about something. Due to the high concentration of caffeine it is a drink that causes addiction in many people.
Many scientists say that drinking coffee could activate the body´s fat-fighting defenses. This is a discovery that could bring solution to diseases such as obesity and diabetes. However, although drinking coffee can help remove body fat, it is still unknown the reason that cause it.
To sum up, it is not sage to drink coffee if you want to lose weight. In my opinion, coffee is good if you drink just the necessary amount because it has a lot of caffeine,which is bad for our health.

ResponderEliminarCoffee is a caffeinated drink which many people drink every day. It is a quick method to keep us awake when we have to do something, for instance to work or study. But each day there are more and more people who drink it like any other drink.
ResponderEliminarPeople drink coffee for breakfast, after eating or at night. Most of the people have it as something necessary to continue with their day. Besides, there are people who coffee doesn't affect because they have been taking it for a long time. This happens because their bodies have got used to it and caffeine doesn't do anything to them any more.
However, this can be a problem. Because this drink activates people a lot and can cause , for instance, insomnia problems. According to some studies, another consequence is weight loss because of the activity that it causes in the organism. Furthermore, some people depend on it to calm headaches.
To sum up, I think that we can have it if we like it, but not thinking about if we have it we are going to lose weight. There are much better ways to get fit. If we aren’t used to it, we should take it little by little

Coffee is one of the most consumed drinks in the world, the majority of consumers are usually adults, they usually drink it in the morning for breakfast before going to work and sometimes some also drink it after eating.
ResponderEliminarCoffee has many benefits, one of them is the activation of the nervous system, which as a consequence when drinking it in the morning will wake us up and activate our brain to improve concentration and performance of the same and also of the whole body, it also has other effects such as, for example, it helps to lose weight, reduces the risk of cancer, reduces headaches... although it can also have its cons, if you take it in excessive amounts it will cause you sleeplessness.
In my opinion, the coffee has bad flavor and is good if you don't overdo it.
I don't like the coffee. I remember the first coffee that I drank, I had eleven years old when I was in the kitchen and I could see a glass of coffee on the table and I thought maybe it was from my grandmother, then I drank from the glass, it was horrible!
