Looking at the lunch hours of office workers these days, post-meal coffee is now an essential course, and the number of office workers who drink coffee following a light lunch is increasing. Coffee following a meal promotes gastrointestinal motility due to the stimulating effect of caffeine, which helps digestion and prevents constipation.
Additionally, the salicylic acid and ellogic acid contained in coffee can help promote intestinal health by stimulating intestinal movement. However, some people should avoid coffee within an hour following a meal. These are people suffering from anemia or diabetes. Coffee following a meal can have a negative effect on anemia and diabetes.
Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system, activating brain function and increasing concentration.

Many people enjoy fruit or coffee right following a meal. Surprisingly, eating fruit may result in poor absorption of the fruit’s nutrients. Additionally, phenolic compounds contained in tea or coffee interfere with the absorption of certain nutrients, such as iron. The tannin component of coffee binds to iron, preventing iron from being absorbed into the body and also preventing the absorption of vitamins and minerals into the body.
It is better to eat 1 to 2 hours following the meal has been fully digested. Drinking coffee following a meal increases concentration and releases energy. The caffeine contained in coffee can stimulate the central nervous system, activating brain function and improving concentration. Additionally, caffeine helps you stay active by reducing energy deficiency and increasing stamina.
“When I drink coffee, I feel more alert and have more energy.”
Mr. Kim (31), an office worker, visits a cafe near his office every day following lunch. He said, “The happiest time of my working life is drinking coffee following finishing work in the morning and having lunch. If I have a quick lunch and laugh and chat with my co-workers while drinking coffee, the stress disappears.”
Mr. Kim said, “You can skip rice or not eat it, but you must drink coffee,” adding, “Young people these days prefer coffee transfusions to rice.” Housewife Okmo (40) also said, “I’m busy getting my kids to school in the morning. Not long ago, I drank coffee right following the kids went home, but I heard it wasn’t good for health, so these days I just have breakfast (breakfast and lunch combined). “I drink coffee right following eating it.”
He said, “Actually, when I do my morning routine without drinking coffee, I feel dizzy, but if I drink a cup of coffee right following breakfast, I feel more alert and have more energy.”
Even if you eat food that is good for anemia, drinking coffee following a meal can be in vain.

There are many benefits and benefits of coffee, but that does not mean that everyone can drink coffee following a meal. If you have anemia, you should not drink coffee following a meal. The tannin content in coffee interferes with iron absorption in the body.
Even if you eat food that is good for anemia, a cup of coffee following a meal can be in vain. The habit of drinking coffee during and within an hour following a meal can worsen anemia. Anemia often occurs when people reduce their food intake excessively through a vegetarian diet or diet, or when they have irregular eating habits.
Ohmo (22), a college student, started dieting some time ago and lost 3kg. He said, “I gained a lot of weight over the summer, so I’m currently on a diet. My goal is to lose a total of 5kg, but it’s not easy.” He continued, “Maybe it’s because I lost 3kg in a month, but when I suddenly wake up or look at the monitor for a long time, I suddenly feel dizzy. When I drink coffee like this, my head spins and my hands start shaking, so I quit drinking coffee these days.”
Diabetics are not advised to drink coffee right following a meal.

Coffee following a meal is also not good for diabetes. This is because the caffeine in coffee can have a negative effect on blood sugar control. If you drink coffee following consuming sugar or carbohydrates rather than on an empty stomach, blood sugar levels tend to rise further and persist. This is because caffeine reduces insulin sensitivity.
Even if a healthy person consumes caffeine following a meal, the body’s system operates and blood sugar levels are automatically regulated. However, if diabetic patients taking blood sugar lowering medication consume caffeine following a meal, the effectiveness of the blood sugar lowering medication may be reduced. Therefore, it is best for diabetic patients to refrain from drinking coffee following meals. 66-year-old Kwak suffers from diabetes. She likes coffee and drinks a cup every day.
Grandmother Kwak drinks coffee following lunch, but the hospital says it is best to drink it an hour following a meal, so she drinks coffee around 2 p.m. He said, “I can’t quit coffee, so I wait following lunch and drink coffee, and that’s the time I look forward to the most. I think the most important thing is to drink coffee healthily.”
Coffee, if consumed in moderation, has a positive effect on health. Recent studies report that some coffee ingredients may have a positive effect on digestive health. Although further research is needed on this, it is expected that moderate coffee consumption can benefit digestive health. [시사캐스트]
