What is the perfect time for coffee?
According to C-N-B-C, there is a specific time of day when you should drink coffee if you want to optimize its results and still be able to sleep at night.
Laura Cipullo, dietician and author of Women’s health clock diet affirms that waking up and immediately drinking coffee can cause nervousness and give a feeling of hyperactivity, which is best to wait a few hours.
When you get out of bed, your body is full of the stress factor, cortisol, which can make you feel anxious. Adding caffeine creates a pretty dangerous cocktail; It can also make you feel tired and heavy later, so it is better to drink coffee late in the morning.
"The trick is to drink coffee when your body produces less cortisol, about three to four hours after you wake up."
What the expert does not advise is not to drink coffee at night, which, although it seems obvious, there are people who do. Caffeine can remain in your system and affect your waking state for up to six hours, although the effect peaks between 30 and 60 minutes after consumption.
Research has shown that coffee has several health benefits: It has been linked to improved immune system and longer life, and drinking coffee can protect against heart disease, cancer and dementia. But it's important to drink it in moderation, as too much caffeine can cause symptoms of anxiety, irritability, and insomnia.
