Food Therapy: Excessive Coffee and Coffee Caffeine Intake in Risk of Acute Diuresis?

By Kyle J. Norton


Coffee intake may have a diuretic effect in increased urinary secretion, a recent study by a renowned institute suggested

Coffee, a popular and social beverage all over the world, particularly in the West, is a drink made from roasted bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

In an observation study of 10 healthy adults (eight males and two females; age: 27 ± 5 years, weight: 89.5 ± 14.8 kg, height: 1.75 ± 0.08 m, and body mass index: 29.1 ± 4.4 kg m-2) ingested either 200 mL of water (W), or coffee with low caffeine (3 mg kg-1, LCAF), or coffee with high caffeine (6 mg/ kg, HCAF) on three respective separate occasions, researchers found that group injected with high caffeine coffee with  (6 mg kgHCAF)demonstrated a greater diuresis during the 3-h period in compared to groups treated with W (356 ± 53 mL) and LCAF.

Furthermore, volume of urinary secretion of the injection of coffee with high caffeine groups  HCAF  was  425 mmol in compared to groups injected with W of 249 mmol) and LCAF of 177 mmol.

Dr.Seal AD1, the lead author siad, " caffeine intake of 6 mg/kg in the form of coffee can induce an acute diuretic effect, while 3 mg/kg do not disturb fluid balance in healthy casual coffee drinking adults at rest".

Contrast to the general belief, coffee consumption does not significantly reduce the fluid balance. According to the University of Birmingham, intake of coffee moderately may have similar hydrating qualities to water, when consumed in moderation.

Additionally, in the review of literature by searching the Medline database of articles published in the medical and scientific literature for the period of January 1966-March 2002, Dr. Maughan RJ, the lead author said, " acute ingestion of caffeine in large doses (at least 250-300 mg, equivalent to the amount found in 2-3 cups of coffee or 5-8 cups of tea) results in a short-term stimulation of urine output in individuals who have been deprived of caffeine for a period of days or weeks".

Interestingly, in a counterbalanced cross-over design, 50 male coffee drinkers (habitually consuming 3-6 cups per day) participated in two trials, each lasting three consecutive days, with controlled physical activity, food and fluid intake, participants also consumed either 4×200 mL of coffee containing 4 mg/kg caffeine (C) or water (W), researchers filed the following results
1. Intake of coffee during this period showed no significant changes in total body water (TBW) with no differences between trials.
2. Volume urinary secretion showed no difference in the period of examination and between 2 groups.
3. No change of nude body mass measurement (BM) in the period and between 2 groups.

Dr. Seal AD, the lead author said, " (there were) no significant differences across a wide range of haematological and urinary markers of hydration status between trials".

The implication of this result insisted that consumption of caffeine-containing beverages as part of a normal lifestyle do not lead to fluid loss in excess of the volume or poor hydration status other than people with deprived of caffeine for a period of days or weeks.

Taking tighter, the contradictory results regarded to coffee and coffee caffeine intake  in increased urinary volume secretion may require more illustrations from a large sample sizes and mutli centers studies before the claim can be made either ways.

Food Therapy: Maternal Coffee Intake > 4 Cups/Day in Risk of Miscarriage?

By Kyle J. Norton


Risk of miscarry is increased substantially in excessive coffee drinkers during pregnancy, an Asian study suggested

Coffee, one of most popular and social beverage all over the world, particularly in the West, is a drink made from roasted bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

Miscarriage is the expulsion of a fetus from the womb between the 12th and 28th weeks of gestation.

In a case-controlled study conducted in Milan of 561 (72%) cases of spontaneous abortion and 877 (57%) controls,coffee drinking during the first trimester of the index pregnancy with healthy women who gave birth at term (> 37 weeks gestation) to healthy infants as control,  researchers reported that  the risk of miscarry is classified as follow
1. Coffee intake of 1, 2 or 3, and 4 or more cups of coffee per day, are associated to increased risk of 1.2, 1.8 and 4.0, respectively in compared to non drinkers.
2. The risk of pregnancy loss also is associated to the duration in years of coffee drinking. The estimated multivariate odds ratios of spontaneous abortion were 1.1 in comparison to non-coffee intake group.

Further more, in the evaluated effect of caffeine in influence of miscarriage researchers at the Boston University School of Public Health, conducted a prospective cohort study included 5132 Danish women planning pregnancy, enrolled from 2007 to 2010, after carefully assessed the returned beverage consumption on questionnaires, researcher found that a significantly miscarried risk is 1.62 higher in women consumed more that 300 mg/day of caffeine per day, in compared to 1.09 in women who consumes <100 mg/day. Specifically, women with daily intake of caffeine of
1. <100 mg/day showed a materially associated with SAB risk of 1.09
2. 100-199mg/day showed a materially associated with SAB risk of 0,89
3. 200-299mg/day showed a materially associated with SAB risk of 1.33

Other, in prospective cohort study included 15,590 pregnancies from 11,072 women with no history of SAB in the Nurses' Health Study II (1991-2009) with beverage intake assessed every 4 years using a validated questionnaire in case pregnancies lost spontaneously at <20 weeks gestation, total coffee intake had a positive, linear association with SAB.

In compared to non pre-pregnancy coffee intake, risk of SAB increased by 20% for women consuming ≥4 servings/day.

More importantly, Dr. Gaskins AJ, the lead author said, "Pre-pregnancy coffee consumption at levels ≥4 servings/day is associated with increased risk of SAB, particularly at weeks 8-19".

Taking together, there is no doubt that coffee may contribute to a relative risk of miscarry for women consuming more than 4 cup per day. Women who are pregnant between 12 to 28 weeks of gestation with excessive coffee intake habit are recommended to consult with their doctors.

Alternative Therapy: Yoga in Improved Physical and Psychological Aspects in Alzheimer's disease and AD Caregivers

By Kyle J. Norton (Scholar, Master of Nutrients, All right reserved)



Yoga used in combination with compassion meditation may have a positive impact in improved quality of life, attention, vitality,... in patients with Alzheimer's disease, a recent study suggested.

Yoga, the ancient technique practice for harmonized external and internal body well being, through breath control, meditation, bodily movement and gesture..... has been well known for people in Western world and some parts in Asia due to health benefits reported by various respectable institutes' research and supported by health advocates.

In a total of 46 volunteers randomly allocated to two groups, the yoga and compassion meditation program group (n = 25), with program lasted 8 weeks, comprised three yoga and meditation practices per week, with each session lasting 1 h and 15 min and the control group (CG), researchers, after assessed other co founders, found that yoga attendees expressed statistically significant improvements (P < 0.05) on quality of life, attention, vitality and self-compassion scores  in compared to control.

Additionally, in the examined feasibility of older adults with Alzheimer's disease (AD)-type dementia in 8 weeks of the Sit 'N' Fit Chair Yoga Program, researchers indicated that all participants showed a steady and progressive improvement over the course of program in 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 1 month period.

Due to small size of this sample, Dr, McCaffrey R, the led researchers said, "Further study, using a larger sample and including a control group, is needed to fully determine the effect of the Sit 'N' Fit Chair Yoga Program on older adults with moderate to severe AD".

More importantly, in the concern of familial caregivers of patients of Alzheimer's disease in reduced quality of life and increased stress levels, researchers conducted a study of 46 volunteers randomly assigned to participate in a stress-reduction program for a 2-month period (yoga and compassion meditation program-YCMP group) (n = 25), at the end, familial caregivers attended the program group exhibited a reduction of the stress, anxiety, and depression levels, as well as a reduction in the concentration of salivary cortisol.

Taking altogether, Yoga, the integrated form of exercise not only improved physical and psychological aspects in patients with moderate and severe AD, but also reduced stress, anxiety and depression of familial caregiver in AD patients.

Food Therapy: Coffee, A Potent and Functional Food in Reduced Risk of Endometrial Cancer

By Kyle J. Norton


In take of caffeinated coffee may have a reduced risk and treatment of Endometrial cancer, an Asian joint study supposed.

Coffee, becoming a popular and social beverage all over the world, particular in the West, is a drink made from roast bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

Endometrial cancer is a medical condition characterized by cell growth disorderly and uncontrollably in the endometriosis. In the later stage, the cancer can spread to distant parts of tissues or organs.

In the review of published data of a total 1,534,039 participants from 13 published articles added in this meta-analysis, researchers found that reduced risk of endometrial cancers incidence is associated to coffee intake to patients never treated with any forms hormone therapies and either overweight or obese.

The relative odd ratio in these group of people were 0.66 and 0.77, respectively,  correlated to decaffeinate and caffeine coffee intake.

In fact, the risk of endometrial cancer deceased by 5% for every additional cup of coffee consumed.

In compared to decaffeinate coffee, caffeinated coffee showed a stronger in attenuated risk of 7% instead of 4% in decaffeinated intake,

The study also addressed that caffeine found in coffee may have a potential in enhanced coffee effects in ameliorated endometrial cancer expression. Risk of cancer is reduced by 4% for every 100mg caffeine intake per day.

In a 26 years follow-up study of 67,470 female participants aged 34 to 59 in 1980 of the Nurses' Health Study (NHS), returned questionnaires by the participants indicated that
1. Women drinking less than 4 cups of coffee per day were not associated with endometrial cancer risk.
2. Women drinking more than 4 cups coffee per day displayed a 25% decreased risk of endometrial cancer in compared to women who drank fewer that 1 cup per day.

Dr. Je Y, the lead author said, "For decaffeinated coffee consumption, a suggestive inverse association was found among women who consumed 2 or more cups per day versus <1 cup/mo."

Interestingly, the menopause women, the primary analyses included 45,696 women and 427 incident endometrial cancer cases, diagnosed over a total of 342,927 person-years of follow-up, suggested that
1. No association of endometrial cancer risk in coffee consumption in compared to non-daily drinkers (none or <1 cup/day),
2. Women who drank ≥4 cups/day have a relative odd ration of were 0.86. 0.63, for total coffee with 0.89 for caffeinated coffee, and 0.51 (95% CI 0.25, 1.03) for decaf coffee.
3. In obese women,  compared to control group (none or <1 cup/day), women who drank ≥2 cups/day had a relative odd ratio of 0.72 for total coffee, 0.66 for caffeinated coffee. and 0.67 decaffeinated coffee drinkers.

Taking together, intake of coffee is associated to reduced risk of endometrial cancer in healthy and menopause women regardless to weight mass.

Food Therapy: Maternal Coffee > 4 Cups/day or Coffee Caffeine > 2 Cups/day Intake in Increased Risk of Congenital Malformations

By Kyle J. Norton


A renowned institute suggested that coffee consumption in high doses during pregnancy may have a directed influence in congenital malformations of fetus.

Coffee, a popular and social beverage all over the world, particularly in the West, is a drink made from roasted bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

Congenital malformation is birth defect with structural or functional abnormalities existed in the mother womb, before the infant was born.

In 755 pairs of mothers of malformed children and their controls personally interviewed soon after delivery consisted of mothers of children with 112 defects of the central nervous system, 241 orofacial clefts, 210 structural defects of the skeleton, and 143 cardiovascular malformations, researchers suggested that although coffee consumption during pregnancy was similar for the mothers of malformed or non-malformed children, high coffee drinking at least four cups of coffee a day displayed a significantly increased relative risk of 1.3, in compared to with those not consuming coffee of 0.7.

Other, in the case-control study assessed associations between maternal dietary caffeine and congenital LDs using data from the National Birth Defects Prevention Study (NBDPS), with 844 LD cases and 8069 controls from 1997 to 2007, researchers, after adjusting to other risk factors found that total caffeine intake daily has a moderated effect in increased risk of congenital limb deficiencies (LDs) in compared to the lowest intake, regardless to amount of caffeine intake.

Further more, in multi-center case-control study interviewed mothers of 776 SB cases and 8,756 controls about pregnancy events and exposures between 1988-2012, according to the returned questionnaire, caffeine intake during the first lunar month of pregnancy  > 2 cups per day may have a directed effect in increased risk of Spina bifida.

Spina bifida is a congenital defect of the spine induced paralysis of the lower limbs, and sometimes mental handicap.

Additionally, according to data extracted from the National Birth Defects Prevention Study, a population-based case-control study in examine the associations between maternal self-reports of exposures and occurrence of choanal atresia in their offspring in 117 case and 8350 control mothers with deliveries from 1997 through 2007, researchers expressed that pre-pregnancy daily coffee intake of 3 or more cups displays a traumatic risk of offspring choanal atresia in compared to those who consumed less than 1 cup per day.

Choanal atresia is a congenital defect of the back of the nasal passage (choana) is blocked due to abnormal bony or soft tissue.

Taking altogether, intake of coffee more than 4 cups/day or Coffee Caffeine > 2 Cups/day during pregnancy may be considered as risk factors in increased risk of congenital malformations. Women with previous birth of congenital malformations, should reduce intake of coffee consumption to < or = 2 cups per day.

Alternative Therapy: Yoga In Reduced Symptoms of Patient with Fibromyalgia

Kyle J. Norton 

Yoga may be used as a form of therapeutic exercise in reduced risk and symptoms of fibromyalgia, the study by the Oregon Health & Science University suggested.

According to the American College of Rheumatology 1990 criteria for the Classification of Fibromyalgia  are
(1) Widespread pain in combination with
(2) Tenderness at 11 or more of the 18 specific tender point sites(a) as a result in responding to pressure.

Yoga, the ancient technique practice for harmonized external and internal body well being, through breath control, meditation, bodily movement and gesture..... has been well known for people in Western world and some parts in Asia due to health benefits reported by various respectable institutes' research and supported by health advocates.

A study in comparison of post treatment data with 3-month follow-up data, from a per protocol sample of 21 fibromyalgia women in the immediate treatment group who had completed yoga treatment and 18 women in the wait-list group who had also completed treatment, researchers found that
1. Yoga group displayed a significant and positive post treatment results in compared to the wait-list group.
2. Both groups experienced similar improved results of 31.9% according to Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire Revised (FIQR) assay
3. After adjusting to other risk factors, 3 months follow-up results showed all patients sustained most of their post treatment gains, with the FIQR Total Score of 21.9% improvement.


Dr. Carson JW, the led author said, "Yoga practice rates were good, and more practice was associated with more benefit for a variety of outcomes".

More importantly, in the screened Clinicaltrials.Gov, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, PubMed and Scopus (through December 2010) and the reference sections of original studies for meditative movement therapies (MMT) in FMS, researchers at the University of Duisburg-Essen indicated that
1. Yoga attendees benefit from many aspects of yoga lessons, particularly in pain, fatigue, depression and HRQOL
2. Yoga groups expressed less sleep disturbances and thiis effect has a maintained range of a median of 4.5 months.in compared to control
3. The participants Drop out rate because of adverse events was 3.1%.
4. No serious adverse events were reported in yoga group.

Taking altogether, yoga may be used as an integrated form of exercise in conjunction with standard care or alone to reduced symptoms of patients with fibromyalgia

Alternative Therapy: Yoga, in The Early Onset and Treatment of Hyperglycemia

Kyle J. Norton 

Hyperglycemia is a condition of abnormal blood glucose in the blood stream and considered as the early sign of distastes development.

People who participated in yoga class are less likely to develop hyperglycemia, according to the India Institute of Medical Sciences.

Yoga, the ancient technique practice for harmonized external and internal body well being, through breath control, meditation, bodily movement and gesture..... has been well known for people in Western world and some parts in Asia due to health benefits reported by various respectable institutes' research and supported by health advocates.

In the review of data collected on 98 subjects (67 male, 31 female), ages 20-74 years, with hypertension, coronary artery disease, rmellitus, and a variety of other illnesses, attended yoga class, researchers found that yoga treatment showed a significant improvement in hyperglycemia or and hypercholesterolemia through decreased fasting plasma glucose and total triglycerides as well as the preferred ratio of total cholesterol to high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.

Furthermore, in a total of 30 male diabetic patients attending diabetic clinic and 30 non-diabetic male volunteers constituted control group, conducted in the Department of Physiology and Diabetic clinic of a tertiary care teaching hospital over period of two years, all yoga attendees showed a significant reduction in mean values of FBS and PPBS at the end of six months when compared with the mean values before participating and in compared to control.

In fact, yoga therapy also found to be effective in improved glucose metabolism values in adolescent girls with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Further more, in a  randomized, intervention controlled trial recruited of 90 adolescents aged between 15 and 18 years who met the Rotterdam criteria for PCOS with yoga group practiced suryanamaskara, asanas, pranayama, and meditation 1 hour per day each day for 12 weeks, while another group practiced conventional physical exercises, researchers indicated that students in the yoga group displayed a better and significant changes in fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose, and improved insulin resistance in compared to exercise group.

Dr. Nidhi R, the lead author said, "Yoga was found to be more effective than conventional physical exercises in improving glucose, lipid, and insulin values, including insulin resistance values, in adolescent girls with PCOS independent of anthropometric changes".


Taking altogether, yoga may be used as a potential therapeutic source in reduced risk and treatment of Hyperglycemia for prevention of early onset of diabetes..
