The Amazing Discovery Of The Stimulating Influence Of Coffee.
Coffee is a drink produced from the coffee grains. It is
stimulating, because it contains caffeine. The use of the drink
of the coffee had its origin in Kaffa, Abyssinia, today
Ethiopia, when a shepherd called Kaldi observed that his goats
were smarter and hopping around when eating the leaves and
fruits of the coffee tree. He tried the fruits himself and he
felt happier and with bigger vivacity. A monk of the region
discovered this and started to use an infusion of the fruits to
resist sleeping during his prayers.
The effect of the drink was spread, and in the16th century
coffee was used in the east, being toasted for the first time in
Persia. The coffee had enemies even between the Arabs who
considered that the effects of the drink of coffee were against
the laws of the Prophet Mahmed. However, as soon as the coffee
won these obstacles, even the Arabian doctors adhered to the
drink to help the digestion, to cheer the spirit and to stay
awake, according to writers of that time.
In Arabia, the infusion of the coffee received the name of
"Kahwah" or "Cahue", meaning in Arab "force". The classification
- Arabian Coffea was given by the scholar Lineu.
In 1675, the coffee was taken to Turkey and Italy, but the drink
considered Arabian was forbidden to the Christians and it only
was allowed after the Pope Clement VIII tried it.
In its travel around the world, the coffee arrived Java later,
reaching Holland and, thanks to the dynamism of the Dutch
maritime commerce executed by the company of Occidental India,
the coffee was introduced in the new world, spreading itself
through the Guyanas, Martinique, Santo Domingo, Puerto Rico and
Cuba.
The commercial establishments in Europe made solid the use of
the drink of the coffee, and diverse houses of coffee had been
world-wide known, as "Virginia Coffea House", in
London, and the
"Coffee of La Régence" in Paris, where famous names as Rousseau,
Voltaire, Richelieu and Diderot congregated.
Here goes a tip: if you're a guy, don't think that you are the
only one that is going to be more vivacious and have more energy
when you take a cup of coffee. Beyond you - believe it or not -
your spermatozoa will obtain the same effects. This is what a
Brazilian urologist concluded after coordinating a research,
which turned international notice after being presented by him
in a conference in San Antonio, United States. The results show
that the men who take at least one cup of coffee on a daily
basis present greater movement of the sperm. In other words, the
spermatozoa have more energy and are quicker, increasing the
possibility of making a woman pregnant. "The caffeine can
increase the use of energy of the sperm, as if it were a
stimulant. It is as if the spermatozoon took an energetic",
explains the researcher.
To affirm this, the semen of 750 fertile men and with active
sexual life was tested by him. "Who takes coffee does not
produce more sperm. The only alteration observed was in its
quality of movement, independently of the amount of coffee
ingested daily", explains the urologist. In numbers, between the
men who take coffee, 67% of the spermatozoa had mobility enough
to arrive at the ovule, against 54% that did not take it. Now,
the doctor will test men with fertility problems. "Depending on
the results, we can suggest to the patient with little movement
of the spermatozoa to take a cup of coffee".
