Can I drink coffee after drinking alcohol?

It is unsafe to drink alcohol and caffeine together. Coffee and tea contain caffeine, and drinking coffee or tea immediately after drinking alcohol is almost the same as drinking them together. People who drink a mixture of caffeine and alcohol are at least three times more likely to get drunk than those who drink alcohol alone, and are four times more likely to drive drunk.

If you drink a large amount of caffeine after drinking alcohol, your body will be in an excited state, which will speed up blood circulation and increase the burden on your cardiovascular system. Without feeling drunk, the damage to your body will be even greater than drinking the alcohol itself.

What are the dangers of drinking coffee after drinking alcohol?

1. Drinking coffee after drinking alcohol will make your metabolism even more disordered

After drinking, alcohol enters the digestive and absorption system, and then enters the blood circulation system, which will affect the secretion of the gastrointestinal, heart, liver, kidney and other organ systems. At this time, the body's fat metabolism and protein metabolism will become disordered. If you drink caffeinated coffee at this time, it will stimulate the body's nerves and muscles, the metabolism will accelerate, and the metabolic disorder will become more serious.

2. Drinking coffee after drinking alcohol will increase the cardiovascular burden

After drinking, the body's metabolism is disrupted and the body's habits are paralyzed by alcohol, with the brain being the most direct and serious victim. The caffeine in coffee can cause the brain to go from extreme inhibition to extreme excitement, stimulate blood vessel dilation, speed up blood circulation, greatly increase the cardiovascular burden, and even induce high blood pressure in severe cases.

3. Drinking coffee after drinking alcohol can cause mental abnormalities

After drinking too much, alcohol is absorbed in the digestive tract and then enters the blood circulation system, affecting the functions of the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, brain, and endocrine system. The most affected is the brain. The main ingredient of coffee is caffeine, which stimulates the brain's nerves and synergizes with alcohol to aggravate damage to brain cells, thereby causing severe headaches and mental abnormalities, such as system five constants, rage, depression and other symptoms.

4. Drinking coffee after drinking alcohol can damage the gastrointestinal tract

After the body takes in a lot of alcohol, a lot of the body's energy is used to metabolize alcohol. At this time, the stomach and intestines have been severely stimulated by alcohol, and the body does not have too much energy to metabolize the newly consumed coffee. Coffee accumulates in the gastrointestinal tract and cannot be metabolized and absorbed in time, affecting intestinal health. If this continues for a long time, the gastrointestinal tract will be damaged and the digestive function will be weakened.
