It’s time to learn the negative health effects of drinking coffee when you drink too much. :)
—Con: Can Raise Cholesterol Levels
One negative aspect of coffee is it has been linked to a possible increase in cholesterol levels. The good news is that the increased risk is only present in unfiltered coffee such as espresso and lattes. To avoid the added risk, coffee drinkers need only to use paper coffee filters to capture the 2 substances in coffee, kahweol and cafestol, which are responsible for this risk. There is some evidence that suggests there may be an increased risk of high cholesterol in decaffeinated coffee, but more research needs to be conducted on the subject.

The stimulants in caffeine cause provide an energy boost and increased alertness to individuals who drink it. Those stimulants also cause an elevated heart rate and a temporary rise in blood pressure. That’s because caffeine stimulates the central nervous system, which causes a release of adrenaline into the body.

More coffee can result in an even higher heart rate and blood pressure.
