Whether you’re sipping a hot cappuccino on your way to work or indulging in a sweet latte after a big presentation, it’s hard to imagine a day without coffee. And because it helps you regain energy in no time, many of us can’t resist the temptation to drink several cups to refuel and keep ourselves going throughout the day.
We at Bright Side also can’t stand the thought of facing the day without a hot cup of Java. And we decided to find out how drinking too much coffee may affect you.
1. It might be visible on your nails.

In addition to making you feel jittery, drinking too much coffee might interfere with your iron absorption and cause anemia. This pretty common condition affects the amount of healthy red blood cells that carry oxygen to your body’s tissues and makes you feel weak and tired. Apart from low energy, anemia might affect the appearance of your nails, causing your fingernail moons to become less visible or even disappear.
2. It may upset your stomach.

If you ever felt that drinking too many cups of coffee makes you go to the bathroom more often, there’s actually a scientific explanation to that. Because coffee is acidic, it irritates your stomach lining and causes cramping, which in turn may lead to diarrhea. You might experience these unpleasant consequences even if you drink decaf, so it’s better to watch your caffeine intake and opt for less acidic varieties, such as French roast or espresso.
3. It might give you headaches.

Although many people hope that a hot cup of Java will make an annoying headache go away, it might actually make it worse. Caffeine causes you to urinate more often, which slightly dehydrates your body and may cause headaches. Although about four cups of brewed coffee a day is considered a safe amount of caffeine for healthy people, in reality most of us can tolerate far less, and having too much caffeine can give you painful migraines.
4. It may cause your skin to age faster.

While coffee is rich in antioxidants that protect your skin from harmful free radicals, drinking too much of it can reduce collagen in your cells. Because collagen is vital for achieving a plump and youthful complexion, consuming too much caffeine can cause your skin to become less elastic and more vulnerable to fine lines and wrinkles.
Can you start your day without coffee? How do you feel when you drink too much of it?

The World’s ‘Dirtiest’ Man Did Not Shower For Over 60 Years – His Reason Is Shocking

There are billions of people on the planet, and the majority of their lives are so unlike ours that it is difficult to imagine. This narrative is among such. It tells the story of a man who led a totally different life.
Continue reading to learn more.
Regardless of their nationality, the majority of individuals enjoy taking baths or showers.
The number of times a person should shower varies throughout persons, but the notion that one should do so on a frequent basis remains the same.
But Amou Haji had a different opinion. He made the decision to forgo having a shower for 67 years. Furthermore, the deceased Persian man stated that he did it for valid reasons.
He had not taken a bath in over 60 years and lived alone in Iran. Roadkill was his favorite diet, and he was rumored to have swallowed animal poo from a pipe.
He was said to have been born in 1928 and was from the Iranian town of Dez Gah. Since nobody knew his true name, he was referred to as “old man” or “Amou Haji” by the people.
There is a narrative about him that claims he lost his love and turned into a recluse.
Amou Haji, widely regarded as the ‘World’s Dirtiest Man,’ passed away in 2022 at the age of 94. He had not taken a shower or used soap in almost 60 years, and he lived in a shanty made of cinder blocks.

His house was on the outskirts of town and was rumored to be built of cinder blocks. His presence didn’t appear to bother anyone.
When he felt his beard and hair were growing too long, he set them on fire. His concern for “hygiene” was limited to that. He had the same gray complexion and hair.
He lived to be 94 years old and appeared to be in good health throughout his life, despite the fact that he didn’t always keep himself clean.
When it came to drinking water, the elderly man wasn’t terrified of it, despite what many others believed. It was reported that he drank up to five liters of water daily out of an unclean tin can.
He preferred to find food on the ground when it came to eating. Even though fresh food was offered to him by others, he would always prefer to find his own. He even declared that porcupines were his greatest animal and that he preferred roadkill. It was reported that he consumed roadkill flesh that, despite still being entire, appeared rotting or old.
He also used a pipe to vape animal excrement. He was rumored to enjoy smoking cigarettes as well, and he was once spotted puffing on multiples at once.
Despite having poor food and hygiene, he was reported to be in good health. In reality, he passed away at the age of 94, just a few months after neighbors persuaded him to take a bath.
Dr. Gholamreza Molavi of Tehran University of Medical Sciences’ School of Public Health examined the elderly man prior to his passing. They were surprised to learn that despite his lifestyle, he was in good health.
On the other hand, he contracted trichinosis, a parasitic infection transmitted by food. Given that he enjoyed consuming dead animals found by the side of the road, this was not shocking. Either way, it didn’t significantly impact his health.
