Coffee is a drink made on the basis of roasted, ground coffee beans. His story goes into the distant past, which did not prevent him from becoming one of the favorite drinks of our time. The current industry offers the consumer several types of coffee: beans, ground and instant, presenting the latter as the most convenient to prepare. About him we will talk further.

What it is

Instant coffee is made from coffee beans. As a result of certain processing, a product is obtained in the form of a water-soluble powder or granules. This coffee you just need to pour hot water - and it is ready to use.
   The taste and aroma of the drink is very similar to the same parameters in a natural product.

Some manufacturers of instant coffee in the process of its manufacture carry out the procedure for decaffeination (reducing the amount of caffeine).

Did you know? Coffee leaders are Finns. On average, one adult Finn drinks 5 cups of drink per day.

Types of manufacturing technology

To get a soluble product, raw coffee tree grains need to be roasted, chopped and rinsed with hot water. The resulting concentrated liquid is dried in several ways.

The type of product depends on the drying method.

Sublimated (freeze-dry)

The name of this species speaks for itself.
   Freeze-drive means "frozen." That is, the resulting concentrated liquid is frozen, placed in a vacuum, and by adjusting the temperature and pressure is transferred from the crystalline state to the gaseous state, bypassing the liquid state.

During such a transformation, the composition of the extract is best preserved. But, unfortunately, this process is too costly, which inevitably affects the cost of the finished product.

Powder (Spray Dry)

Perhaps the cheapest process. Coffee powder is obtained by spraying a concentrated liquid in a stream of hot air. Drying, sprayed droplets of liquid form powders.

Granulated

Granulated or agglomerated product is obtained from the raw material mined by the previous method. Dry powder is additionally moistened, so that the powders form agglomerates (glued together).

In this way, the formation of small granules.

Is there any benefit from instant coffee

A lot of controversy flared up around the feasibility of drinking an instant drink.

Effect on the body

Instant coffee has a more negative effect than its natural counterpart. There are several reasons for this. First, the soluble product is prepared from rejected grains.

Secondly, during its manufacture many useful substances are lost, which means that it does not have the desired positive effect on the body.

  Here are some aspects of the influence of instant coffee on various systems of the body:

• Regular consumption of the drink leads to the fact that the nervous system gets used to the action of caffeine. Dependency arises, with the result that the nervous system receives stress without a regular dose of doping. Because of this, a person becomes hot-tempered, aggressive, irritated. The dream worsens, depression appears.

• Coffee is an oxidizing agent for our body. This has a negative effect on the digestive tract. There may be an ulcer, gastritis. Also, some elements of the drink are difficult to remove, which additionally loads the liver and kidneys.
• The drink has a diuretic effect. On the one hand, this is a rather positive fact. The body does not retain excess fluid, toxins out. But on the other hand, calcium comes out of the body along with excess fluid, without which some systems cannot fully function.

• Negatively affects the drink and the work of the heart. The pressure rises, the heartbeat accelerates, which is very poorly displayed on the condition of people who have problems with this organ.

Important! So that the loss of body fluids after drinking a cup of coffee is not perceptible, it is advised 10-15 minutes after taking the drink to drink a glass of water.

Where is the benefit

The benefits of instant drink is minimal. There is an opinion that it is able to improve the metabolic process and force the stomach to contract more actively. Such an effect on the body can be attributed to the drink a series of products that help in the fight against overweight.

Of course, this effect is very noticeable. Yes, the product can be called low-calorie (100 g of powder - 75 kcal). But to change in weight were noticeable, you need to drink a lot of coffee. And it is harmful to the body.

   A lot of benefits brings instant coffee in cooking. Add the new flavor notes in your favorite chocolate cake or other dessert will help the ground or soluble product mixed into the dough.
You can create a delicious summer dessert - coffee ice cream. To do this, mix a third cup of a strong instant or custard coffee with half a can of condensed milk and add two and a half cups of whipped cream to them.

All whisk blender until creamy and freeze.

Useful in coffee and art. With it, you can create a natural watercolor paint brown. To do this, simply brew a strong drink.

Strong coffee drink is suitable for rinsing dark hair to make them more saturated.

Natural or soluble: which one to prefer

Store shelves are dazzling with a variety of coffee. Therefore, often before the buyer the question arises, what type of product to give preference.

Taste qualities

According to taste indicators, the natural product is undoubtedly in the lead. It has a pronounced taste and rich aroma. It is he who seduces all coffee lovers. Among instant coffee, sublimated is the closest in flavor.

But, unfortunately, in order for the product to have a true coffee aroma, manufacturers have to mechanically saturate the product with essential oils. And not always for this will use natural ingredients.

Benefit and harm

It would seem that a natural product should be much more useful than a product obtained by technical means. In relation to coffee is not quite true. In the grain and hammer product in addition to nutrients contains a number of harmful substances that negatively affect the human body.

What can not be said about sublimated. In the process of its manufacture, some of the harmful substances are lost, and the aroma and taste remain.

The harmful substances contained in the grains include Cafestol and Caveola. They are in any unfiltered coffee. They increase the amount of cholesterol in the blood.

   Also in the soluble product, the percentage of caffeine is less than in the natural. Therefore, from him less harm to the heart and nervous system, but on condition that you drink the drink in moderation.
   At the same time, in the process of producing freeze-dried coffee, along with harmful substances, it also leaves off useful ones. Therefore, this product contains a minimum of vitamins and minerals, sometimes some do not exist at all.

Synthetic essential oils can be used to obtain the fragrance.

Price

Grain is considered the cheapest, since the process of its production takes a minimum of resources. Further, in ascending price, go: ground, powder, granular and sublimated. Some manufacturers put grain and ground at the same price.

The question is whether there will be savings if you buy grain and chop it yourself. With a coffee grinder, the process of brewing is absolutely not complicated and does not take much time. Or you can immediately purchase a ground product.
   But when you start to prepare a drink, then, in order to achieve its strength, you will have to pour more powder than sublimated raw materials. Natural coffee leaves about one and a half times more than instant coffee.

So, with the same volume of packages natural will be consumed faster than soluble. As a result, the benefit becomes less obvious.

Storage time

If we consider only ready-made coffee raw materials, then for the duration of storage in the first place is soluble. In unopened packaging, it can be stored for up to two years. Opened packaging significantly reduces the storage time (up to 2-3 weeks).

This is due to the fact that all volatile components quickly leave the product. If stored in a sealed package, you can extend it to two months.
  The second place is occupied by coffee beans. In a regular bank, they can be stored for 10-14 days. This only applies to roasted grains. Raw can be stored 2-2.5 years. To increase the shelf life of roasted grains by placing them in a more hermetic container.

In special foil bags with a clasp and a check valve, you can store them for about a year. The shortest shelf life is ground coffee. It is stored for several days.

Important! Manufacturers point to longer ground storage on ground coffee. But this is possible only in the case of tightness of the container. From the ground product instantly disappears all aroma oils.

How to reduce harm if you like instant coffee

If you can not refuse the use of coffee, then try to use a quality product in moderate quantities.

Choosing a quality product

After reviewing the technology of making instant coffee, we can conclude that the most expensive and the highest quality will be sublimated. That it is necessary to pay attention to the store. And the higher the price, the more likely the product is natural.

Of course, the price should be within reason. A kilogram of freeze-dried should cost about 2-2.5 kilograms of a similar grain coffee.

In addition, you should inspect the packaging. It is desirable that it was a glass or tin containers. It is more hermetic, which means it will retain its taste for longer.

You can once spend money on goods in good packaging, and then purchase its counterparts in bags with a clasp and pour them into hermetic dishes.
   If you want to purchase the product in a glass jar, then look at the bottom to not have powder or broken granules. We admit only a small percentage of them.

Examine the label carefully. It contains information about the manufacturer, roasting and raw materials for the product. Should be written: 100% coffee.

You can test it for naturalness at home. Put a spoonful of instant coffee in a glass of cold water. It must dissolve on its own, without outside intervention. In boiling water, this process should occur instantly.

Terms of Use

The rate of coffee consumption should not be measured by cups, but by the amount of caffeine that enters the body with a drink. Doctors say that the rate of caffeine for an adult, which can be safe, is 100-200 mg at one time.
   This amount of alkaloid is contained in three teaspoons of ground and two teaspoons of instant coffee. During the day you can consume no more than two or three such servings. This will allow you to get the desired invigorating effect and minimize the negative impact.

If you prefer brewed coffee, then try to brew it for a minimum time so that caffeine does not have time to stand out. It is recommended to pour ground grain with hot water, bring to a boil and immediately express.

   The aroma and taste is not lost, but the harmful substances do not have time to get into the liquid.

The less water you pour into the cup, the more caffeine you will have in your drink.

Important!   Caffeine is eliminated from a healthy body in about 5-6 hours. Therefore, do not need to drink coffee often and at night.

How safe is decaf coffee, or what is decafinization?

Decaffeinating is the process of removing caffeine from coffee beans, cocoa beans and tea leaves. Completely remove the alkaloid is impossible. It remains about one-two percent of the previous amount.

There are several methods for removing alkaloids. Usually, raw grains are first steamed. Next, they are poured into a solution, pulling caffeine. This cleaning is carried out 8-12 times.

The output should be raw materials containing slightly more than 3% caffeine. By EU standards, the grain should be cleaned by almost 99.9%.
   In addition to caffeine, there are a number of beneficial compounds that are difficult to leave in the grain in the same volume during the decaffeination process.

Regardless of the purification method, chemical compounds are used to remove the alkaloid. Even if the raw material is thoroughly washed after processing, there is no guarantee that harmful substances will be completely washed off.

Because of this, the caffeine-free product is unlikely to be more useful than its crude analog. In addition, in the course of long processing many elements are responsible for taste and aroma.

To make such a coffee pleasant to the taste, flavors, often chemical, are introduced into it artificially. Also, scientists have found that decaffeinated coffee increases the amount of harmful cholesterol in the human body.

Did you know? In 1675, King Charles II of Great Britain ordered the closure of all coffee establishments in the country, since he believed that his opponents were gathering in them.

What can replace coffee for energy effect

You can get an invigorating effect not only from coffee, but also from other drinks.

Cocoa

It contains about 5 mg of caffeine per 100 ml of drink, so its use is safer. It is also a source of flavonoids,. This list of elements is able to support the work of the main body systems: the heart and blood vessels.

Tea

Tea is also a source of caffeine, more precisely, one of its varieties - thein. The tonic effect of its use is similar, but the effect on the body is softer and more lasting.

Black tea contains 60-85 mg of alkaloid in 200 ml, white - about 75 mg per 200 ml, green - 30-60 mg per 200 ml.

Ginger

If to add to tea, then its tonic effect will increase many times and will be noticeable for a longer time. In addition, the root flavor calms the nervous system. Fatigue instantly disappears. There is a desire to work.

About the dangers of coffee, scientists argue for a long time. Some conduct experiments and prove that there is no negative effect on the body, but only a positive one. Others talk about harm.
   And the producers of the product, in turn, try to keep the drink fans, inventing new and new forms of it. Who is right and who is not, it is difficult to judge the consumer. Therefore, it is better to adhere to the golden rule: everything is good in moderation.

P about the definition, instant coffee, the benefits and harm of which cause violent controversy of scientists, marketers and nutritionists is a drink from coffee beans, which are transformed into soluble powder by means of a special technology, or, more correctly, into granules.

In the world there are not many large producers of instant coffee, and each of them has its own secret of processing raw materials for the production of a drink.

In general, the technology looks like this: At first, the refined grains are roasted, mixed with water and heated for a while. Then the suspension is separated from the grains and processed in two ways:

• In the high-temperature process, a powder is obtained from it, which is either left in this form or doused with steam to obtain granules;
• In the case of low-temperature sublimation, the excess moisture is removed by freezing, crushing and placing in vacuum

The resulting mixture contains, as a rule, a large proportion of dyes, preservatives, flavors, as opposed to natural coffee coffee: 80-90% of the mixture can be such additives. The rest is low-quality Robusta grains, which are cheaper and more caffeinated than the relatively high-quality arabica. Therefore, most often, after drinking such a drink, a person feels not cheerfulness, but on the contrary - the desire to sleep.

The history of instant coffee

According to various sources, for the first time, instant coffee was produced in Chicago by an American of Japanese origin, Satori Kato, from 1899 to 1901. Coffee was intended for soldiers and therefore did not go into widespread production.

Thanks to Max Morgenthal, the chemical technologist Nestlé, who improved the Satori technology, instant coffee was released on industrial rails. The first time the novelty appeared on the shelves under the name "Red E Coffee" in 1909. And only in 1938, the world-famous brand Nescafe was formed, close to the top of the world coffee domination.

Types of instant coffee

The choice of instant coffee is limited to three types (and in most Russian stores one or two):

• sublimated;
• granulated;
• powdered

The most “qualitative” of them is considered the first, since at the expense of its structure it preserves the quality of the original raw product a little more.

Sublimated instant coffee, its benefits and harms are more shifted towards good, more costly in production, since its production technology is rather expensive and differs radically from the other two types. Ground coffee is mixed with water, then frozen, separated from the liquid, resulting in a "tile". Then they grind again. With this method of production, the properties of grains are best preserved, allowing you to minimize the addition of preservatives, dyes, flavors.

Powdered coffee  cheap in all senses: inexpensive production, poor flavor, achieved by flavors, “liquid” due to the abundance of dyes color. So that the buyer can pour it into his cup, finely ground grain under vacuum is passed through the liquid and dried, increasing in volume and turning into powder.

Granulated coffee  - the same powder, but having undergone a steam treatment procedure twice and in structure resembling small granules with an even worse smell and taste than powdered instant coffee, but better soluble.

The advantages of instant coffee

Even in such an ambiguous product as instant coffee, the benefits and harms of which are still not clearly defined, there are undeniable advantages.

First of all, speed: the time taken to pour the contents of the bag and fill it with water and to carefully prepare the natural coffee beans, differs by an order of magnitude.

Secondly, simplicity: cooking technology is also much easier.

Thirdly, storage: grains require compliance with more complex storage conditions and may remain usable less than soluble powder.

Fourth, the combination of the first three points with the smell of a soluble product, for a non-connoisseur almost identical to coffee beans, gives the feeling “why complicate your life?”

The remaining virtues are not so indisputable.

• Like any caffeine-containing drink, instant coffee can improve the well-being of people suffering from hypotension;
• Due to the increase in blood serotonin - the hormone of happiness - instant coffee invigorates and improves mood;
• Since a cup of coffee contains almost no calories, it is considered to be a diet drink that helps lose weight;
• A kind of cult, actively supported by the media and coffee-producing giants, glorifies the morning ritual of “a cup of coffee that helps wake up”

Cons of instant coffee

The harm of instant coffee is scientifically proven.

Scientists have found that preservatives, which contain all types of instant coffee, without exception, have an extremely negative effect on metabolic processes. Even the imaginary dietary benefit is leveled by the risk of cellulite on the most unnecessary places.

If a person suffering from diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, and especially the stomach, begins to drink instant coffee on an ongoing basis, then he will almost immediately feel a sharp deterioration in his well-being. The substances that make up this product adversely affect the gastric mucosa and lead first to the development of gastritis, and then to peptic ulcer. This is due to a sudden increase in acidity and speeding up the processes of digestion. By the way, because of the latter, weight loss may occur in the early stages. But in a short time, 2-4 kilograms dropped will turn into all the same gastrointestinal diseases and, as a result, deterioration of the condition and general skin lethargy.

If a person stubbornly continues to eat instant coffee, but because this product causes some kind of dependence, and not one cup per day, then it methodically dehydrates its body, depriving it of iron, potassium, calcium and other vitamins, minerals and nutrients necessary for life. And together with the depressing condition of the skin, it can become like a chronic patient or an alcoholic (edema, bags under the eyes are attached).

But is it?
  To reduce the cost of production, the companies replace the drink, which is free from the production of coffee oils, with synthetic or - at best - not so valuable natural oils.

In the end, what useful can be extracted from the grains undergoing several hours of hydro-and heat treatment?

It is widely known that during deep roasting, the content of benzopyrene, which is harmful to the human body, increases in the grains.

Caffeine, which is originally the purpose of buying a drink, will not necessarily be natural, and in the percentage it may be more than in a regular cup of coffee made from grains.

Some nutritionists refer coffee — and instant coffee, respectively — to narcotic substances, which is only one-third true. Of the three addictions that the drug must cause - physical, psychological and addictive - coffee drinks correspond only to the latter.

Who can not be categorically

1. Elderly: hypertension, coupled with insomnia - two intimate friends caffeine-containing drugs;
2. People with heart disease, gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary system, kidneys. Disturbance of metabolic processes can provoke a sudden deterioration and the transition of the disease to the acute stage;
3. Children. This is due to the influence of coffee on the nervous system, which in children is not yet formed;
4. Pregnant women. If you want a strong coffee, then you should choose a quality grain drink in the amount of not more than one or two cups. In large doses, drinking coffee will lead to impaired normal metabolism in the body of the future mother;
5. It is categorically contraindicated for drivers, because it can not cause vigor, but an irresistible and imperceptible desire to fall asleep right behind the wheel.

In search of a compromise

If you want coffee very much, and in the nearest store or on hand there was only an instant drink, it is advisable to perform a quality check.

For a start - evaluate appearance  the contents of the bag. Coffee powder should be dissolved in water without sediment - and the faster this happens, the higher the quality of the product. Granulated coffee should be uniform, with the same size of granules.

Smell and taste should not have shades of "chemistry" as far as possible.

If you drink instant coffee in the morning, it is highly recommended to eat something before that, add milk to the cup with a drink and drink a glass of water in 15-30 minutes. Thus, the harm of instant coffee is partially neutralized: increased secretion of gastric juice and leaching of calcium from the body.

Total

Every day in the world, more than two billion people drink coffee, of which 50% prefer instant coffee. Is soluble coffee harmful, everyone decides for himself. A person makes his choice based on needs and capabilities, but it is better to give preference to more natural products, rather than surrogate substitutes for the original drink. After all, as they say, you will not buy a new life and you will not return your lost health.

More than half of the total amount of coffee that is drunk in the world each year is made up of instant drink. Moreover, people constantly argue over whether it is harmful or not. They are interested in such questions as: what is the composition of this product, what is the technology of its manufacture, to whom and why should it not be drunk. Below you can learn more about this type of coffee.

How to make instant coffee and what is it?

It is important to note that this is a drink made from coffee beans, which, with the help of various technological processes, are transformed into a substance that can be dissolved by water. Instant coffee can be in the form of granules or powder. After boiling water is added, a drink is obtained that is similar in all characteristics to coffee beans. It is important to note that some manufacturers of instant coffee, in addition to dehydration, are also decaffeinated - reducing the caffeine content.

According to the technology of making the drink, the coffee beans are first thoroughly fried, ground, and doused with hot water. The resulting concentrated drink must be dried. For this process, choose one of several popular methods:

1. Freeze-drive. After processing it turns out sublimated or frozen coffee. It is made by the "freeze-dried" method. Cold processed coffee crystals are completely dehydrated by sublimation in vacuum space. This complex process perfectly preserves the components of the extract. However, due to the heavy and energy-intensive processing method, it is much more expensive compared to other types of instant coffee beverage.
2. Spray drive This is a popular powdered coffee, which is produced using the method of "spray drying". The coffee extract is carefully sprayed in a stream of heated air. As a result, it dries out and we get coffee powder.
3. Aggregation. Thanks to this method they get popular in the whole world granulated or agglomerated coffee. It is important to note that it is made using the spray-drying method with aggregation. This unique process is the wetting of coffee powder in order to subsequently produce granulated coffee.

It is important to note that there is at least one manufacturer of instant coffee, offering customers a product in the form of a concentrated liquid from which to make coffee.

What is the calorie content and BJU instant coffee?

The nutritional value of instant coffee

How much coffee is in instant coffee and does it contain caffeine?

Often, instant coffee is preferred to grain for quite objective reasons. And it's not just the cost, but also the amount of caffeine. Some people mistakenly believe that it is much smaller in granulated or powdered coffee, therefore, it is more useful. But this is not the case. The thing is that it is in the considered beverage of this substance as much as in the natural grain. For comparison: if in just prepared coffee there is about 90 mg per 100 ml, then in soluble coffee - about 68 mg.

However, in the brewed beverage there may even be less caffeine, because if you cook it quickly in a Turk and boil it once, the concentration of this substance will be less high. But when bringing to boil about two times the coffee is more saturated, fragrant and, accordingly, harmful.

By all parameters and properties, caffeine is a rather complex substance that can most negatively affect the general condition of a person. It leads to the activity of the nervous system, gives vitality, but despite this it can provoke the occurrence of arterial hypertension. Despite this, coffee is shown to receive hypotensive, because it is famous for its ability to influence low blood pressure.

Even this delicious drink can improve mood due to the serotonin contained in its composition. This substance is also called "the hormone of happiness." It is not recommended to abuse coffee, since more than two cups a day can provoke a dependence on caffeine. And with a complete abandonment of the drink, the body will be in the so-called state of abstinence. During this period, the person feels apathy and aggression, lethargy and drowsiness. In addition, there may be headaches.

Instant coffee is composed of a fairly large amount of caffeine and all sorts of dyes. But manufacturers of a cheaper product save on it at all and try to replace natural coffee with other components. It should be noted that the natural product does not contain any preservatives or flavors.

One of the most destructive effects on the body is an increase in the acidity of the stomach. For this reason, doctors forbid this drink to their patients who suffer from diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

If you drink it wisely, you can, on the contrary, improve the performance of the stomach and intestines. Some overweight women believe in its ability to accelerate the metabolism, which helps to get rid of centimeters at the waist and hips. But experts in the field of beauty argue that overuse  Coffee reduces skin tone, as a result of which it becomes flabby and cellulite forms on it.

He also washes away from the human body an impressive amount of vitamins, nutrients, and he also loses vital water. If a person constantly drinks this drink for five years or more, he becomes completely dependent on it. His skin also becomes dull, dehydrated and painful.

Council In order not to get an unwanted dependence on coffee, doctors recommend drinking it no more than one cup per day.

Coffee sublimated and instant: what is the difference between them?

At the moment in the supermarkets you can find several varieties of instant coffee. It is a drink in the form of powder, granules and a sublimated variety. The most expensive is the last. It can be recognized by compressed, slightly shining particles. This type of drink retains all the qualities of coffee beans.

Is soluble coffee harmful to the body?

To understand the negative aspects of this unique drink, it is necessary to speak from two main aspects: psychological and physical. It is important to note that with regular use of instant coffee there is an addiction to it. For many, this drink is associated with rest, relaxation, pleasure, so when you stop using it, a person becomes completely dissatisfied. And this signals that a person has a certain dependence on coffee. That is why, in order to fill this void, a person begins to drink more and more. Over the years, the situation has become aggravated radically - in the morning it is difficult for him to wake up and give up another cup of flavored drink. A little later, begin to be traced certain problems with physical health.

All types of instant coffee are dangerous enemies of all organs and systems of the body. The vulnerable nervous system suffers first. Some medical workers say that coffee really provokes a drug addiction. A person is not able to start working without a cup of invigorating drink, he becomes irritable, aggressive. Appear pronounced deviations in behavior. Over time, without receiving the next dose of coffee, it falls into a serious condition, which is called depression.

As for the health of internal organs, many people know that the type of coffee in question is able to oxidize the body. Subsequently, certain diseases of the stomach, liver, pancreas and intestines appear. A person can acquire diseases such as gastritis and ulcers. In addition, the drink adversely affects the state of the gallbladder. Also, experts do not recommend drinking coffee on an empty stomach. Because of this, an intoxication of the body may occur. In order to instant coffee does not harm, you need to drink it after a meal.

Do not forget that this product is able to dehydrate the body. The drink has a strong diuretic effect. Against the background of the constant use of the drink, the leaching of calcium from the human skeleton can be traced. Doctors recommend drinking a glass of pure water about ten minutes after a cup of coffee.

Everyone knows that coffee, especially instant coffee, should not be drunk by those who have problems with the heart and blood vessels. It is also especially harmful if it is drunk at the same time as you smoke a cigarette or other tobacco product.

In fact, which coffee is healthier: ground or instant and how do they differ?

Many people think that natural ground coffee is more beneficial. But is this true, let's see a comparison of these drinks in the table:

Ground coffee	Instant coffee
It is made from whole coffee beans. If you wish, you can buy beans and grind coffee yourself. In addition to the grains themselves, the beverage may contain flavors.	It contains only 15% grains. The rest - stabilizers, dyes, flavors and other chemical additives. The cheapest grains are used to make it.
It contains more fatty acids, which are an excellent prophylactic agent that prevents the appearance of cancer cells. It contains about 115 mg of potassium	Potassium in this drink about 69 mg
The magnesium which is a part of a product gives the chance to vessels to be narrowed and expand, thereby bringing back to normal blood pressure. Its content in the drink - 7 mg	Magnesium in this type of coffee is about 6 mg
Contains antioxidants that slow down the aging process and allow the skin to stay young and fresh	It has preservatives that negatively affect the metabolism inside the cells. Due to the regular use of this drink appears cellulite
There are about three hundred microelements and vitamin PP, without which the normal course of redox processes is impossible. Another product is good for hair and skin.	In this coffee, all the vitamins are boiled and eliminated, they simply do not exist.

From this information, we can conclude that it is much more useful to use ground coffee, because it retains all the nutrients and vitamins.

Council Some brands of high-end instant coffee can boast of preserving vitamins, minerals and some useful substances in its composition. This is due to the use of special technologies. But, such coffee is even more expensive than ground coffee and cannot be found in our supermarkets.

Can I drink expired instant coffee? Shelf life of the drink

Many people wonder how and for how long they can store instant coffee. Still the question remains: whether it is possible to drink a drink with an expired shelf life and what consequences it may cause.

The storage time of instant coffee depends on the type and conditions. This type of drink is much better. As a rule, the average shelf life of instant coffee is two years. This is explained by the fact that during its manufacture the product is processed using high temperature modes. Moreover, an impressive percentage of the oils available in natural coffee simply disappears from the drink during the manufacturing process.

It is important to note that the natural components in the product in question are being replaced by analogues of chemical origin. But, nevertheless, opened packages should not be stored longer than 20 days. During this time interval, all the components that are natural simply disappear from the coffee. It is possible to increase the shelf life when moving the drink to a special hermetic sealable container. In such a container it can be stored for 90 days.

Instant coffee with milk: the benefits and harm of a popular drink

There are several ways to make instant coffee with milk. And it is the recipe that can affect the benefit or harm of the drink.

It should be noted that the benefits of coffee with milk will be greater if you drink it without sugar. It is in this component is the damage that it can cause the human body. In other words, two natural products: coffee and milk can not cause harm to health. It is for this reason that this drink can be considered useful.

It is recommended to drink to people who suffer from low blood pressure. In addition, it will help to quickly recuperate and feel a surge of cheerfulness. Caffeine has the ability to flush out calcium from the body, but milk will help restore its balance. For this reason, the combination of these products is called very successful.

As for the harm of a drink, coffee can negatively affect the performance and the state of the heart and blood vessels. It is not recommended to abuse coffee. It is also forbidden to use it to people who have lactose intolerance.

Can instant coffee be pregnant or not?

As noted earlier, some experts refer coffee to the category of narcotic substances, because it provokes addiction. Women in an interesting position only endanger their lives when they decide to drink a cup of flavored drink. In addition, the life of the fetus at this point is also under threat.

Continuous use of coffee leads to a lot of problems. It flushes calcium from the fetus, which prevents the formation of its musculoskeletal system. But the negative impact of the drink can provoke complications in the mental development of the unborn child.

Few people know, but in a soluble drink there is a high concentration of benzopyrene resins. And this, as we know, increases the risk of miscarriage.

Council Do not forget that any instant coffee, even from the elite category, can cause irreparable harm to the unborn child. Therefore, do not put his life in danger.

The main symptoms of an allergy to instant coffee

Particularly noteworthy is the intolerance to caffeine and other components of instant coffee. Many people even have no idea that they may be intolerant to this product. Therefore, they do not exclude it from their own diet. Allergies can appear as spontaneously, so manifest constantly. The only way out of the situation, when an allergy to this drink was diagnosed, is a complete rejection of it.

As for the symptoms, it resembles the reaction to some foods. Among the most common signs of intolerance to this product are the following:

• the appearance of itchy spots on the skin, urticaria;
• shortness of breath, coughing, sneezing;
• bloating, hiccups, digestive problems.

In addition, an allergic reaction can manifest itself in the form of an unpleasant chill, pain in the heart muscle, migraine. Even with a stimulus, a person can even react to the smell of coffee: as a rule, he sneezes, suffocates him. These symptoms are quite disturbing. It is very important to pay attention to them, since this can be a rather alarming sign. When a strange reaction to a drink appears, it is necessary to abandon its use and contact a personal doctor. He will prescribe special antiallergenic drugs that will relieve the symptoms of the disease. We should not forget that it is impossible to cure coffee intolerance.

It should be noted that an allergy to a product such as instant coffee can occur completely suddenly and be taken by surprise. Moreover, it is not a one-time. It can become a recurring phenomenon. Usually intolerance manifestations directly depend on the type and type of coffee. It is a soluble drink that provokes the most severe allergic reactions. After it has been used, blisters, scaly patches, rashes and redness may appear on the skin. Usually they appear on the face and head. Often, patients note in their swelling, severe pain in the abdomen, diarrhea, the appearance of shortness of breath. These symptoms indicate the appearance of allergic gastroenteritis. In more severe and dangerous cases, an allergic reaction to instant coffee is accompanied by fever, fever, and angioedema.

A person may experience allergy symptoms not due to a component such as caffeine, but due to the presence of impurities, colors, flavors and other chemical components in the drink. Abuse of instant coffee can cause serious gallbladder problems.

Often people have an aversion to the smell of the drink. And it can provoke not only nausea, but also vomiting.

Council If you have allergies, you need to start taking strong antihistamines. An allergic patient should always have Suprastin on hand. After that, it is recommended to contact your doctor.

Is it possible for nursing mother instant coffee?

Caffeine is harmful to newborns, so it should not be taken in their bodies with mother's milk. This is due to the fact that the internal organs of the child are simply unable to absorb this substance. For this reason, you can get a lot of problems. But, it concerns only those cases when newly-made moms abuse this drink.

With moderate use of coffee problems will not arise. Among other things, a substance called caffeine is contained not only in beverages, but also in foods such as chocolate, black and green tea. Moreover, it is green tea that has more caffeine than coffee. But, nevertheless, lactation is not the reason for abandoning it.

Unfortunately, when drinking coffee during breastfeeding, there is a possibility of an allergy in the baby. It is important to carefully monitor the condition of the child, especially in the first hours after feeding.

Coffee for a nursing mother should be only high quality and natural. If you prefer the instant drink, it should not be cheap. Powdered and granulated coffee is not recommended at all for obvious reasons. If this rule is neglected, then the life and health of the infant can be seriously compromised. A consequence of the use of low-grade coffee can be: a strong allergic reaction, itching and hives in the baby.

It is advisable to abandon this drink to completely eliminate the likelihood of undesirable consequences.

From this article, we can conclude that it is better to give preference to natural coffee. It is advisable to simply buy grains and grind them yourself. Only in this case, you can be confident in the quality and benefits of this product. But instant coffee should be completely abandoned. It contains a minimal percentage of natural grains, instead of which dyes and flavors are present, which can harm the body and provoke a strong allergic reaction. As can be understood from all the information presented above, during pregnancy and breastfeeding, you should completely abandon any type of coffee.

Instant coffee was introduced more than 100 years ago at the All-American Exhibition. It happened in Buffalo in 1901. The inventor of the very first technology was the Japanese chemist Sartori Kato, and his product was actually a condensed coffee. Since then, many people simply do not represent their morning awakening without a cup of flavored drink.

Positive points

Yes, alas, it is moments, not useful properties, because this product does not have any benefit for the human body. Its only advantage over the competitor of freshly ground beans is the cooking speed. This factor for many becomes decisive. What could be easier than to throw in a cup of coffee and add boiling water? After one or two minutes, it can be consumed. Also, the basis for great popularity is also the price - it is lower than that of natural or ground coffee beans.

Instant Coffee Harm

This topic must begin with the study of the technological production process. Coffee is divided into:

1. Powder.
2. Granulated.
3. Sublimated.

Now about each form separately.

Powder

This option has the lowest cost. The roasted ground beans are subjected to hot water treatment (it is served under pressure), then filtering and spraying is performed. At the same time, the drops of the extract are magically turned into powder.

Granulated

Manufacturing does not practically differ from the previous version, but at the end of the process one more stage is added. The powder is exposed to hot steam, and it is collected in lumps. This is how granules are made.

Sublimated

This option is the most expensive and quality, if we compare it with the two previous varieties. The fact is that the processing of raw materials for such a product is completely different. Due to this, sublimated coffee tastes as natural as possible.

First get a coffee extract, which is subjected to freezing, and then dehydrated in a vacuum at low temperature. The resulting solidified mass is divided into small crystals. The mixture during such processing retains many useful substances, smell and taste properties, which are natural and ground coffee. To the question: "What kind of less harmless" the answer is one - sublimated. And by the way, in the process of processing the beans lose almost half of the caffeine.

Soluble? Yes! But is it coffee?

When beans are processed, nutrients and essential oils are lost. In order to partially replenish lost properties during manufacturing, manufacturers supplement soluble product with flavors, preservatives and other chemicals, and it’s not necessary to explain what harm to the body from such additives. It rarely happens that after a couple of cups of instant coffee, a person develops a rash, as an allergic reaction to the components of the product. Rashes can be on the neck, face and even on the hands, someone like ...

Only 15% of this instant beverage is coffee beans.

The basis of the preparation of a mixture of instant coffee - chemical derivatives, preservatives and nut powder.

Nervous system

Coffee is considered a good stimulant for the body. It awakens the tone and increases brain activity. Only its frequent use leads to insomnia, irritability, and in men even to a decrease in potency.

Heart and vessels

The human body is a single interconnected system. Therefore, after a cup of instant drink, not only the nervous system, but also the heart are more active. People who suffer from hypertension and heart disease, it is not recommended.

Excessive consumption of instant coffee can cause disturbances in the work of the cardiovascular system, even in completely healthy people.

GIT

Soluble drinks are harmful to anyone suffering from gastrointestinal problems. The composition of instant coffee are components that raise the acidity. This can cause the formation of gastric ulcers (and aggravations of stomach ailments), diseases of the liver and pancreas. Natural and ground coffee of these substances contains less.

It is better not to drink instant and natural coffee on an empty stomach.

Impact on appearance

Experts agree that soluble coffee drinks lead to premature aging of the body. It is associated with a dehydrating effect.

Instant coffee promotes the formation of cellulite.

In addition, coffee adversely affects the enamel of the teeth, which is manifested in the formation of plaque and darkening.

Harm to pregnant women

Is such coffee harmful to expectant mothers, the answer is one - yes. Drinking any (ground, instant, natural) coffee is strictly prohibited to them. If a pregnant woman consumes three cups of coffee per day, then the probability of abortion increases more than three times! This is especially dangerous in the second half of pregnancy.

Decrease in trace elements

Frequent consumption of instant coffee leads to the loss of essential for the body trace elements. Women at high risk. To prevent various diseases, experts recommend that coffee lovers periodically take vitamin complexes.

Addiction

It arises in both men and women. Caffeine for people to become a drug, and many gradually increase the dose of the drink.

IMPORTANT! If the decision is made to get rid of this dependence, then you need to act "without sudden movements." Doctors recommend reducing the strength and amount of coffee gradually.

How to choose instant coffee?

This is a problematic issue. When buying, you should know that the quality depends not only on what kind of beans was used for production, but also on the climatic features of the region where they were grown.

In order not to make mistakes when choosing and not to regret about the money spent, you need to know some nuances:

Packaging.  It is worth paying special attention. Any damage, violation of integrity leads to the fact that the contents lose their flavor and taste.

Preference should be given to glass packaging.

Price. To produce a quality product, expensive technologies and raw materials are used. If the packaging states: "100% freeze-dried coffee", then such a product would not be cheap. A good sublimated product is expensive.

Calorie instant coffee

The calorie content of instant coffee drinks can reach up to 7 kcal per 100 ml  (and this is excluding sugar and cream). For comparison: in natural coffee only 2 kcal.

Decaffeinated instant coffee base

The method of removing caffeine from beans is called dekofenizirovanie. Caffeine in the product after this decrease by 5 times. This fact is misleading for many. Is decaffeinated instant drink harmful? Yes, it is impossible to call him harmless.

This coffee becomes sour and brings more harm to people suffering from gastrointestinal diseases. And in general, the caffeine-free option retains all the harmful properties of ordinary instant coffee.

So ... What is going on? The benefits of this coffee is almost absent, but there is only harm. But, in a situation of lack of time to mess around with a coffee machine or because of the lack of finance for its acquisition, many simply have no other choice. But all is not so dangerous, if not abused. Which product to purchase, everyone will decide on their own. Just do not forget about your health. For example, get high-quality sublimated product.

Good afternoon, dear readers! Who does not like to pamper yourself in the morning with a cup of aromatic and invigorating coffee. An abundance of instant drinks on store shelves saves you time. No need to grind grain and cook, just put a spoonful of granules or powder and pour boiling water.

But is it really useful instant coffee - a quick drink. To clarify all the nuances, it is necessary to consider the composition of instant coffee, its types, as well as the method of manufacture. Today in the article, instant coffee benefits and harm, questions about the beneficial effects on health, its harmful effects and contraindications.

The benefits and harm of instant coffee

For the production of soluble drink, manufacturers use grains that do not have a presentation (color, shape), which is sometimes called illiquid product. Although it does not affect the chemical composition and beneficial properties.

The chemical composition and active substances of the grains

The unique chemical composition of coffee beans is due, contained in them, more than 1000 elements, which have an impact not only on the quality of the drink, but also give it a taste and aroma.

Heat treatment of grain leads to a change in its quality characteristics. In addition, manufacturers increase the aromatic and taste indicators of the drink with the help of:

• coffee beans oils or their synthetic analogues;
• preservatives;
• stabilizers;
• carbonic acid;
• dyes.

High-quality soluble product is made on the basis of the main component - coffee extract, which should be indicated on the package. Otherwise, the product may include numerous additives. In some cases, their content reaches 80%.

The main ingredients of coffee are:

• Caffeine  . Belongs to the class of alkaloids and is a bitter whitish or colorless crystals. In different types of coffee, its quantity is different and averages 1.18%. Roasting practically does not change its percentage, which after processing is 1.05%;
• Squirrels.  Virtually all common varieties of the product (Arabica, Robusta, Liberica, etc.) contain the same amount of protein substances - up to 13%;
• Carbohydrates.  Carbohydrates in coffee beans make up more than 50% of their total mass. The amount of sucrose varies from 6 to 10%, cellulose from 5 to 12%, pectin substances from 2 to 3%. Grains also contain arabinogalactan, galactose, mannose, arabinose, fructose, glucose, etc.

Heat treatment leads to profound changes in the composition of carbohydrates. So, in soluble coffee, glucose is contained in the amount of 1.25%, fructose - 1.1%, arabinose - 0.15%, galactose - 0.1%. The roasting process leads to the caramelization of certain types of sugars, which causes the brown color of the product;

• Tannin.  In the raw product contains in the amount of 3.6-7.7%. However, roasting leads to its reduction to 0.5–1.0%;
• Chlorogenic acids.   They are represented in the raw product by ten compounds and make up about 10%. When frying, they participate in various reactions and are subject to thermal destruction, which leads to a decrease in their number by about 2 times.

The content of multivitamins and heterocyclic alkaloids (theophylline, glucoside, theobromine, trigonelline and nicotinic acid) is observed. Watch the video, instant coffee from Galileo:

The nutritional value  product is directly dependent on its type. On average, 100 g of coffee contains: 0.2 g of proteins; 0.6 g fat; 0.1 g carbohydrate; up to 5 mg of calcium; 0.6 mg of vitamin B3; 9 mg of potassium; 7 mg of phosphorus; 2 mg of iron.

Types of instant coffee, what is their difference

The inventor of the soluble drink is a Japanese scientist Satori Kato, who lived in America. The opening dates back to 1901. Production of the beverage was put on an industrial basis in 1906 by the English chemist George Constant Washington.

However, the popularity of the product was brought by the Second World War, during which fast and convenient preparation of the drink appealed to both servicemen and civilians.

At the moment, the volume of sales of instant drink is in second place after oil. For industrial purposes, grow two varieties of coffee tree - Arabica and Robusta.

The modern food industry presents several types of instant coffee, which differ in the method of production and, as a result, their taste and impact on the body.

Initially, roasting, grinding and boiling the coffee beans for several hours using hermetic vessels takes place until a thick coffee syrup is formed. Further cooking technology varies.

• Powdery.   It is the oldest, cheapest and most common of all types of instant drinks. After cooking, the coffee syrup is cooled and filtered. To obtain fine powdered grains, the extract is exposed to hot air, which leads to evaporation of the liquid.

It is made from the remnants of raw materials or low-quality grains, contains no more than 5% caffeine, numerous additives and does not have good quality. However, the drink has an acceptable pricing policy, which makes it popular.

• Granulated. Its production differs from the powdered one in the final stage, during which the grains stick together under the influence of hot steam treatment and are converted into granules.

Such processing of the grains leads to a deterioration of the aroma and taste of the drink, but gives it a richer color and good solubility. Granules contain more caffeine than powder, which gives it an advantage over powder. In the qualitative granulated coffee there are no visible impurities, granules of brown color, do not stick together.

• Sublimated. It is made on technology other than the above. The coffee concentrate obtained during cooking is instantly frozen and dried in a vacuum, bypassing the transition to a liquid state. There is evaporation of water and the formation of dry matter, which later crumbles into small granules.

This technology is quite long and expensive, but the quality of raw materials is not always high enough.

Freeze-dried coffee has a color, taste and aroma that does not differ from freshly brewed. Useful substances contained in coffee beans are not lost during processing. The price of the sublimated variant is 30–50% higher than that of the granulated and powdered, but the taste of the drink fully justifies it.

The good quality of the sublimated product is indicated by light brown large granules, available dense texture. They dissolve in water in a short period of time with the formation of a thin white film. The detected powder at the bottom of the package indicates poor quality.

About the beneficial and harmful effects on health

To date, experts have not come to an unequivocal conclusion about the benefits and dangers to the health of instant coffee. Drink has a double influence on the body, which leads to the need to analyze its properties.

How does the nervous system

The use of instant coffee contributes to an increase in brain activity by an average of 10%, thanks to the natural psycho-stimulant caffeine contained in it. Ingredient provokes the expansion of brain vessels, which significantly accelerates blood circulation and some biochemical processes.

Acceleration of transmission of nerve impulses through neurons increases nervous excitability and, as a result, causes vigor, vigor, increased attentiveness.

The benefits of the drink are undoubtedly when intense mental activity, long-term driving, as well as for persons over the age of 50 years. It helps to increase attention and reaction, resistance to stress and performance. Able to improve mood and eliminate depression (due to the property of the product to stimulate the production of serotonin "hormone of happiness" in the body).

The property of the drink, to relieve headaches (except for pain in hypertension) is a scientifically proven fact.

However, overdose can lead to nervous exhaustion and overexcitement, tremor of the limbs and other unpleasant symptoms. In addition, the emergence of addiction, by force resembling alcoholic or nicotine, requires a careful approach to the amount of drink drunk.

How does it affect the digestive organs

The product contains organic acids (malic, citric, oxalic, chlorogenic, etc.), which stimulate the production of gastric secretion, which in turn accelerates the digestive process. This property is positive, however, in the presence of gastric ulcers, gastritis, pancreatitis and other diseases - may exacerbate them.

With the abuse of alcohol, coffee prevents the occurrence of cirrhosis. The tannins contained in the product saturates the body with vitamin P and activates metabolic processes with the participation of vitamin C. Tanning properties of tannins, allow you to use a coffee drink for the treatment of gastric ulcer. Tannins give a bitter taste to the drink, which can be eliminated by drinking coffee with milk.

How the heart and blood vessels react to coffee

The product contains numerous components that affect the cardiovascular system. Drinking in large quantities leads to a short-term increase in blood pressure and tachycardia.

This property can cause irreparable harm in diseases of the heart and blood vessels. However, one can not fail to note the positive product on the vessels. Reasonable doses of the drink helps to strengthen the vascular walls and improve microcirculation.

Effect on the respiratory system

Some facts about the health benefits

The moderate use of coffee has a positive effect on health:

• stimulates the central nervous system;
• activates the brain;
• stimulates muscle activity;
• increases muscle tissue tone;
• reduces stress levels and improves mood;
• activates the metabolism;
• reduces appetite;
• improves digestion;
• normalizes microflora in the mouth and intestines;
• enhances the effect of antibacterial and analgesic drugs;
• reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease;
• has anti-allergic effects;

prevents and inhibits the development of cancer cells.

Some facts about the harm to the body

Soluble types of coffee contain in their composition more acids, as compared to natural (grain). So they contain about 5.800 g of amino acids and 0.418 g of fat per 100 g of powder. This affects the increase in acidity of gastric juice, causing heartburn, in addition, they negatively affect the health of teeth, thinning tooth enamel. Evidence of this is the increased sensitivity of teeth to hot and cold, to sour.

Coffee with milk. Coffee with milk helps to reduce the effect of acids on teeth, because milk has an alkaline environment, which to some extent smoothes the aggressiveness of acids. Add to the finished drink can not only cow, but also, which will reduce:

• coffee acidity
• its damaging effects on tooth enamel,
• will reduce the likelihood of heartburn,
• reduce the degree of staining of the teeth.

Manufacturers in the process of technology are added to all types of instant coffee dyes to match its natural color. Even the most expensive freeze-dried coffee contains a proportion of dyes that affect the whiteness of teeth. In this regard, coffee with milk somewhat protects the teeth from the deposition of dyes on the enamel. But in any case, experts recommend after a cup of coffee - brush your teeth.

There is a risk of harm from excessive consumption of coffee, in other cases even a one-time overdose of coffee drinks can lead to:

• heart palpitations;
• dizziness;
• weakness;
• nausea;
• blurred vision;
• loss of consciousness or orientation.

These symptoms can occur when using a product with a caffeine content of at least 600 mg, which causes an excess of adrenaline and increased pressure on the vessels.

Numerous studies show that the systematic use of the drink in large quantities can not contribute to the emergence of diseases, but can lead to an exacerbation of pathologies that are chronic.

When drinking a drink, be careful when:

• chronic diseases of the cardiovascular system and pancreas;
• during pregnancy and lactation;
• regular psychological overload in order to avoid excessive excitation of the nervous system.

Coffee for women and men

For a more vulnerable and sensitive female body, even 3 cups of coffee per day will have a tangible effect:

• reduce the risk of ovarian cancer by 20%;
• eliminate headaches caused by changes in weather or pressure drops.

Drinking during pregnancy is a controversial issue. Increasing the tone of the uterus muscles caused by a drink can lead to premature labor. On the other hand, its moderate use prevents the risk of fetal death.

Experts to date can not come to an unequivocal opinion about the impact of a coffee drink on men. Some of them believe that as a result of its excessive use, the female hormone, estrogen, accumulates in the body of the representatives of the stronger sex, which negatively affects the potency.

Other scientists have the opposite opinion. Their argumentation is based on the stimulating effect of the product and, as a result, on the increase in sperm motility, which leads to increased sexual attraction and an increase in the probability of fertilization.

For the elderly, moderate use of coffee in the absence of contraindications reduces the risk of sclerosis and reduced functions of thinking.

The widespread opinion about the benefits of coffee for weight loss, has no good reason. Indeed, it improves metabolism, but does not contain ingredients that burn fat. For the figure, the benefit of the drink is manifested only against the background of active physical exercise.

Frequently asked questions and answers to them:

How much can you drink per day of instant coffee?

When used up to 4 cups a day, the drink will have a positive effect on the body. With increasing dosage, the stimulating effect of the product ceases, and the destructive effect begins to appear.

How many calories in a teaspoon does a drink contain?

In a teaspoon of instant coffee in a dry form contains from 5 to 6 Kcal. When sugar, cream and other ingredients are added to the drink, this data increases.

How much caffeine does a cup of coffee contain?

A cup of instant coffee contains 60–100 mg of caffeine at the rate of 10 g of powder per 150 water.

Which coffee is better?

If we consider this issue from the point of view of composition and quality, then it is better to have freeze-dried coffee, in which the composition of the beneficial properties is richer, there are small differences in caffeine content compared to powdered or granulated. It has a somewhat peculiar taste and smell, slightly different from the natural. Many people like it, but real connoisseurs of this coffee do not recognize.

And if we talk about the usefulness of the drink, the drink, made from grains, is considered the best gourmet. Natural coffee has the greatest healing effects on the body, allowing you to feel cheerfulness and energy, unsurpassed aroma and exquisite taste.

Instant coffee whose benefit and harm are now known is a product, not quite ordinary, due to the production technology and increased caffeine content. It also has a beneficial effect on the body, but its excessive use can lead to undesirable consequences.
