Coffee and Anti Aging

I wonder why every time I sip a cup of coffee or be in a coffee shop, my brain always works harder. The story is, in yesterday afternoon, my husband and I were in a coffee shop, we saw an interesting new thread to discuss. So, there was an influencer on a social media, Instagram, she said something unusual to a follower.

Yami; "I, who is 24, lost to Gita, who is 30 years old, you are very young."
Gita: "Not having children is natural anti-aging. You can sleep 8 hours every day, not stress and hear the kids screaming. And when wrinkles appear, you have the money to pay for botox."

This comment then became a debate which was enough to make Indonesian netizens rebuke Gita for belittling mothers with children. Gita is indeed very famous for his monologue which talks about herself deciding to be childfree, this is taboo for Indonesian society.

My husband and I had a heated debate why a Gita who is known for her intellectuality and a feminist activist made an unexpected statement. My husband thinks that what Gita is doing is not a good thing, where she often says gender equality instead makes statements that actually separate one woman from another.

In my opinion, Gita should be aware that her sentence shows a figure of herself who doesn't like kids. I don't have a problem with her wanting or not having children (childfree) because that is her decision, but she should know that what actually makes a person stay young lies in how she enjoys herself, has a good lifestyle, controls his emotions and also has enough money. can make it able to do treatment to the beauty clinic.

Gita may not have clear references, that there are many mothers who stay young and even have kids, there are many examples of celebrities like that in Indonesia, such as Wulan Guritno and Sophia Latjuba, who are famous for their youth and beauty until they are 50 years old.

There are many factors that make humans age quickly, there are also many factors that make humans stay young. I think it's quite low to look at children as something that is tiring to care for, even though when we have children our hearts are happy every day with their behavior and it keeps us young because they laugh and produce hormones that are good for flexing skin cells, until finally we become naturally young.

I think even coffee can be used as a natural ingredient for anti aging, apart from making it a scrub to remove dead skin and regenerate new skin, just drinking a cup of coffee per day can relax the mind. There are many uses for coffee, of course without added sugar, which can minimize some degenerative diseases such as heart disease and diabetes mellitus. You can make coffee as an alternative to slow down aging.

So, if asked to choose between the two options between not having children as an anti-aging agent or a glass of coffee, it's better for me to just drink coffee every day.

See you the next time hive friends!
