A review done in 2014 showed that 20 different studies with a total of 4262 participants found that coffee and caffeine can slightly cure headaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the improvement was small and deemed \u201cstatistically insignificant\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By 2017, another review was done to see the efficacy of analgesics when it comes to treating headaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reviews included more studies than the previous review, and found that caffeine may significantly boost the efficacy of OTC (over-the-counter) headache treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those studies are more focused on the relationship between caffeine and headaches, with tension headaches and migraine specifically, there\u2019s no other scientific evidence that caffeine doesn\u2019t reduce other kinds of headaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To summarize it all, it seems that caffeine may reduce the pain from headaches, or at least increase the strength of your pain medication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Caffeine_Improve_Headache_Treatments\"><\/span>How Caffeine Improve Headache Treatments<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Headaches commonly caused by a dilated blood vessel.

One of them is the side effects of caffeine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Caffeine is a substance that can trigger headaches in some people, especially if they consume large amounts of coffee or if the body is sensitive to caffeine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this can also happen because you have unconsciously developed caffeine dependence when drinking coffee frequently. Here&#8217;s the full explanation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Caffeine_Dependence\"><\/span>1. Caffeine Dependence<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you drink coffee daily, your body will adjust to the caffeine content in coffee or any other caffeinated beverage overtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, when you suddenly stop consuming coffee, your body will experience sudden changes. And this can trigger symptoms of headache or dizziness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinichealthsystem.org\/hometown-health\/speaking-of-health\/does-caffeine-treat-or-trigger-headaches\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mayo Clinic Health System<\/a> stated, this condition is caused by the effect of caffeine that can narrow the blood vessels surrounding the brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that being said, when caffeine is not available, the blood vessels will be diluted that can cause a headache to appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Dehydration\"><\/span>2. Dehydration<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, dehydration can also be a factor in causing headaches after drinking coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Caffeine can have a diuretic effect, which means it can increase urine production and cause the body to lose fluid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lack of fluid in the body can lead to dehydration, which in turn can cause headaches or dizziness after drinking coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Sensitive_to_Caffeine\"><\/span>3. Sensitive to Caffeine<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people are naturally sensitive to caffeine. As a result, coffee consumption can trigger several symptoms, such as restlessness, diarrhea, and headaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, increasing age can also cause a person to become sensitive to caffeine. This happens because the body takes longer to process the caffeine compounds from coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Allergy\"><\/span>4. Allergy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although rare, some people have an allergy to caffeine. This caffeine allergy can cause quite dangerous symptoms, as it can lead to headaches, skin rashes, breathing problems, nausea and diarrhea.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you have it! The explanation about caffeine and headaches that we\u2019ve summarized just for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several health <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/benefits-of-coffee\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"408\">benefits of coffee<\/a> that you could enjoy by drinking a safe amount of high-quality coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But how do you determine a high quality coffee? Well, in Indonesia, there are several standards that regulate coffee. It is to ensure that the coffee that is sold and distributed in Indonesia meets Indonesian standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The standard about coffee is stated in the SNI which stands for Standar Nasional Indonesia (Indonesian National Standard).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The said standard aims to regulate, and give the standard for many if not all of the products and\/or services that are sold, distributed and provided in Indonesia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SNI standard for coffee is stated in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>SNI 2983:2024: <\/strong>For instant coffee<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>SNI 3542:2004: <\/strong>For powdered coffee<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>SNI 01-2907-2008:<\/strong> For coffee beans<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Caffeine and headaches have been related to one another for a long time.
