Does coffee help with headaches?

Good evening everyone, its another blog by MF Products and today we’re going to be looking at something slightly different. Today, the MF Products Team was riddled with headaches and someone asked “I wonder if there’s a drink that could resolve this pain” which got us thinking. Since coffee, especially MF Coffee (which is available to purchase now), has so many benefits maybe there’s a chance it can cure headaches too. Here’s what we found.

We realised that when your head hurts or aches, people generally want a fast relief as the pain can be tedious. Caffeine is usually found in many painkillers and has statistically shown them to be 40% more effective with caffeine as opposed to without it. Actually, there are reports that the consumption of caffeine has even stopped the pain directly after. Which begs the question, could MF Coffee resolve your headache?

Headaches can usually occur due to inflammation of the brain; caffeine’s main superpower is to reduce inflammation it does this as caffeine has vasoconstrictive properties which means it narrows blood vessels and because blood vessels tend to dilate before a headache the narrowing of these vessels aids in reducing the pain of a headache. A very rare condition called hypnic headaches responds especially well to caffeine. These tend to strike older people, waking them in the middle of the night with severe pain. Surprisingly doctors typically tell people who get these to have a cup of coffee before bed (hopefully they suggested MF Coffee).

To conclude, caffeine is helpful for headaches in regard to medication, its vasoconstriction capabilities allow it to stop vessel dilation and therefore improve pain killing medication. So, can coffee help with headaches? Yes, given that you drink caffeinated coffee, available at mfproducts.co.uk

How to make the MF Soursop smoothie.

Good evening MF Blog readers, we hope you all are staying active during this cold Christmas season. As the year draws to a close, MF Products still have a variety of tasty recipes to broadcast and this week we will be looking at how we can use our MF Soursop to make some delightful treats. Today we will be making our very own MF Soursop smoothie with bananas and almonds. We chose bananas due it’s alpha and beta carotene content when consumed by the body, this then turns in vitamin A. Bananas are also a good source of potassium and due to its low water content, it contains more calories and is more filling. This pairs wonderfully with the benefits of soursop (previously mentioned in another blog) as it; possesses antioxidants, fights against bacteria, and boosts the immune system. Almonds are also very beneficial as they contain unsaturated fats, fibre, magnesium as well as protein. When adding all three ingredients together, this is a very healthy smoothie that will help to ...

Benefits of pimento (also known as allspice).

Before we get into the benefits of pimento, at MF Products UK we believe we must look at a foods history first and learn about its origin. So, without further ado let’s look into pimento which is also known as allspice. The pimento tree is indigenous to the Caribbean Islands. It was found growing in Jamaica by early Spanish explorers who were quite impressed with its tantalising taste and aroma of the berries and the leaves. Pimento trees were then later discovered in Cuba and were presumed to have been taken there by migrant birds who had eaten the berries. They have also been found in Mexico, but it is Jamaica that has the longest history, having been in continuous production since the tree was identified in about the year 1509. The name Pimento originated from the Spanish word "pimienta" which meant ‘peppercorn’. To most English-speaking people the tree is called "pimento" and the berries "allspice". The name allspice originated from the widespread n...
