The unbroken popularity of coffee and cappuccino consumption needs no introduction, with many people indulging in this healthy passion. However, many people are unaware that coffee flavourings such as sugar or milk are not allowed in certain medical conditions. Certain types of coffee can also cause problems for people with certain stomach disorders
Fortunately, there are perfect alternatives for people with these problems, so that the experience of drinking coffee and drinking coffee can be as pleasant as it was before. These options will be highlighted below.
How can we substitute sugar?
Diabetes is the most common metabolic disease in the world, with hundreds of thousands of people diagnosed and treated in Hungary. In this disease, insulin action is reduced or absent, which means that some cells in the body are unable to absorb glucose from the blood and therefore starve. For this reason, a proper diet plays an important role in the management of the disease.
The use of natural, calorie-free sweeteners, such as stevia in Ayura Cappuccino, which is plant-based and has been known and consumed for centuries, is an excellent way to support a diabetic diet.
There is also a solution for lactose intolerance or milk allergy
First, it is worth clarifying the two problems, as they are often confused. If you are lactose intolerant or lactose intolerant, we are talking about a milk sugar indigestion, which can lead to abdominal bloating, stomach cramps or diarrhoea if you drink milk. In contrast, milk allergy means that the body reacts as an allergen to the milk protein (casein) in the milk consumed and produces an abnormal immune response against it. It is less common than the aforementioned lactose intolerance. It is characterised by the appearance of symptoms, which can be quite variable (e.g. rashes or, in severe cases, anaphylactic shock), even with minimal milk intake.
A common flavouring in instant coffees and cappuccinos is milk powder, which in most products is a dairy product of animal origin, thus depriving consumers of the possibility of consuming these products.
To overcome this problem, Ayura Cappuccino uses palm milk powder, a plant-based flavouring that is also excellent for those with lactose intolerance and milk allergy.
Suggestion for people with stomach disorders
Some people have a more sensitive stomach lining, so drinking certain types of coffee can cause stomach aches and heartburn due to the high tannins. As a result, many people prefer to avoid coffee to prevent stomach aches. This is mostly caused by coffees made from the robusta variety, which also have a more bitter taste.
Those who suffer from such problems should look for the much softer, silkier-tasting arabica coffees, which are gentle on the stomach and do not cause acidity or stomach upset when consumed in normal quantities. Ayura’s products take these aspects into account, as they are made exclusively from arabica coffee.
