Effects of Coffee to Lose Weight
No caffeine subjects obtained from fat 22% energy, while, after taking caffeine, obtained from fat 40% of body energy. While this research was conducted on athletes to investigate ways to delay the onset of fatigue in competition, you can use this knowledge in the plans for weight loss. The onset of fatigue is related, in aerobic activities, with the depletion of glycogen stores. Therefore it is recommended to exercise at least 30 minutes aerobics, because after 20 minutes is set to enter lower the level of glycogen and increases metabolism of fats to be burned as fuel. Clark Studies (1983) following the work of Dr. Bruce Cadarette, Ergonomics Laboratory of the U.S. Army, states that the ideal dose of caffeine is 2 milligrams per pound of body weight (1 pound = 0.4535 kg). Dr. Costill advised athletes to consume a cup of coffee an hour before competing or training. This also can be used for appropriate physical activity. However, like all research, is not absolute truth, so that indiscriminate use can be dangerous, also, you should always consult a doctor to avoid disappointment. In conclusion, whenever possible, the use of coffee as an ergogenic aid can be an extra help in the search for weight loss.
