Cerebral Cortex: Regular caffeine intake may affect brain structure

There is no doubt that coffee has become an essential drink in people's lives, and it is understood that coffee consumption in the United States reached $74.2 billion in 2015, and coffee is even more widespread in the United States than tap water.
caffeine is a jaundice alkaloid compound with a particularly strong bitter taste.
its chemical structure is similar to adenosine, so it competes with adenosine in the body to bind the subject, so that the body gets temporary excitement.
study confirmed that caffeine activates and excites the central nervous system, heart, respiratory system and skeletal muscles and can be used to make long-acting analgesics that fight drowsiness, colds, asthma and edema.
, however, if ingested at night, it can disrupt our sleep.
lack of sleep can in turn affect gray mass, as previous studies have shown.
, will regular caffeine intake affect brain structure due to poor sleep? Caffeine intake does not cause poor sleep, but changes in gray matter in the brain, according to a recent study published in the journal Cerebral Cortex.
grayseed is mainly composed of nerve cells of the central nervous system part, while white mass mainly includes the neural path, that is, the extension of nerve cell length.
study, researchers included 20 healthy young people and were asked to take caffeinate-containing capsules without consuming any other caffeine.
researchers examined participants' grayscale volume every 10 days and analyzed their sleep quality by recording electrocephaloelectrogen activity (EEG).
results showed no difference in sleep depth, but significant differences in brain gray matter, regardless of whether the participants were taking caffeine or placebo capsules.
10 days after taking the placebo - known as "caffeine withdrawal" - the volume of gray matter was larger than during the same period of taking caffeine capsules.
difference is particularly pronounced in the inner lobe of the right temporal lobe, which includes the sea mass, which is an area of the brain that is critical for memory consolidation.
, although caffeine appears to reduce the volume of grayseed, grayseed has significant regeneration after only 10 days of coffee withdrawal.
, the findings do not necessarily mean that caffeine intake has a negative impact on the brain, but daily caffeine intake may affect cognitive function and will require larger studies in the future.
