A study revealed that caffeine increases the craving for sweets, so doctors do not recommend eating them or any sweet-tasting food with coffee.
And researchers from Cornell University in America, in an article published in the Journal of Food Science, indicate that if a person eats a cup of coffee with a cake or any sweet item in the morning, he should give up this habit. It has been proven that the combination of caffeine and the sweet taste causes the craving for sweets more and more.
The researchers say that caffeine dilutes the sweet taste of the substance, because it is a powerful antagonist of adenosine receptors that promote relaxation and sleepiness. As a result of caffeine blocking these receptors, it contributes to an increase in vitality, which makes it difficult to feel the taste of sweets, which in turn contribute to an increase in energy.
This property of caffeine causes an increase in the desire to eat more sweets.
