Caffeine stimulates the cardiovascular system, thereby raising the blood pressure and heart rate. It prevents fatigue, and may also act as a diuretic and laxative.<\/span><\/p>\n

Around three billion cups of coffee are consumed every day, a number which continues to rise. The diverse mix of global celebrations that take place on International Coffee Day truly showcase coffee as one of the world\u2019s most loved beverages.<\/span><\/p>\n
