i do not do coffee in the beginning i was a little bit shy and sheepish about saying this because i knew that so many of you would get triggered you would not listen to my stuff because you wanted your coffee but you know what damn it you guys are not giving yourselves any favor with that freaking coffee so get rid of it i've done an instagram reel about this i just want to show you some evidence that caffeine is harmful for humans i see reactive hypoglycemia i see people having problems with autoimmune issues with coffee it's a roasted plant seed there are often pesticides there are mold toxins there is acrylamide in the coffee last but not least there's caffeine which is problematic for humans guys caffeine ingestion before an oral glucose tolerance test impairs blood glucose management in men with type 2 diabetes guess what caffeine worsens insulin sensitivity metabolic and hormonal effects of caffeine randomized double-blind placebo-controlled crossover trial shows that insulin levels were significantly higher which means more insulin resistance after caffeine intake relative to placebo the homa ir index of insulin sensitivity was reduced by 35 percent that is worsening insulin sensitivity by caffeine so again this is showing caffeine worsens insulin sensitivity systematic review of randomized controlled trials of the effects of caffeine and caffeinated drinks on blood glucose concentrations and insulin sensitivity to people with diabetes mellitus evidence indicates a negative effect of caffeine intake on blood glucose control individuals type 2 diabetes as replicated in a single trial in gestational diabetes
