There
have been a lot of negative reviews of the consequences of consuming coffee,
tea or eating chocolate because of the amount of caffeine that these substances
contain. There might be a silver lining to the caffeine cloud though and that is
how caffeine can play an important role in boosting your memory.
Often
we experience short term memory problems. At times it can be whether we turned
off the water after we brushed our teeth or if we locked the door before we
went to bed. These things can nag at our minds enough that we turn our car around
to make certain that we will not be face with a flood because of running water
or we jump out of bed only to find that we did indeed lock the door.
Life
is busy and it is easy to forget some of the smaller things that we take for
granted. Our minds might have trouble focusing because of a conflict at work or
stress at home. This is not an uncommon occurrence and it happens everyday to
people of every age. Losing track of tiny details is common but certainly not
something that we need to live with. There are steps that we can take to
improve our memory enough that we never have to deal with having our minds
filled with those nagging thoughts again.
If
you find that you are one of the people who cannot put their finger on certain
small facts and it has become a frustration for you, it might be time to
consider the benefit of caffeine in relation to short term memory.
Caffeine
is a stimulant and it works to stimulate not only our hearts but our minds as
well. It can give a person the extra boost they need to clear their mind. Many
people feel the need to have a cup of coffee each morning so they can focus.
The caffeine that is found within the coffee jolts the brain and the memory can
retain more information. You probably know someone who says that they cannot
function until they have had their coffee. It appears that there is more truth
in that statement than most of us have ever realized. That first cup of morning
coffee gets the memory gears moving in many people. This can be especially
important for many people at work. Having the ability to retain important information
is essential for their employment. If they find their memory lacking it could
have serious consequences that stretch far beyond some of the minor annoyances
that they might experience at home when they forget to do things.
A
cup of coffee or tea in the morning might be just the prescription to boost the
memory enough that the rest of the day you function at full memory capacity.
The same can be said for the calm that many people experience by mid-afternoon.
Having a piece of chocolate or a cup of hot chocolate stimulates your memory
again and the rest of the day will flow as smoothly as the beginning did.
