Dose makes the poison. If it doesn't effect sleep than its fine

To anyone on the fence about quitting: it's worth it. The only reason he recommends people not stop drinking coffee is because coffee beans contain antioxidants. A western diet is lacking in antioxidants. But antioxidants are found in so many healthy foods (fruits, beans, etc) that this is a moot point if your diet is dialed-in. Quitting caffeine allows your body to run on its natural energy. Your sleep will improve and you'll wake up so much more refreshed. Coffee, like any drug, has an amazing honeymoon period. Until your body becomes acclimated to it. Your body is always trying to get back to baseline. So then you'll need more coffee to get the original effects. Vicious cycle that isn't worth it anymore for my quality of life. Your anxiety levels will drop and you'll be more present in your day to day interactions. Eventhough I miss my morning brew, my life is way better without it.

I became addicted to coffee since i started the new semester in university, i used to drank only 1 cup every day, i also tried only drinking 1 cup before 2pm… one day i forgot to drink my coffee before 2pm and that night i slept like a baby. It’s been 2 months without caffeine in my life, i can notice i have fewer levels of energy now , but much more stable and sustained focus around the day, also a sense of peace in a mental dimension compared with the high levels of anxiety i used to had when I was drinking coffee. The most important part is that its much easier to fall asleep and i have lucid dreams almost every day

Workouts are pretty good so far it just feels weird for me to just go in there with water only and get straight to it without my pre workouts but overall my workouts are actually really good rn and now I'm actually able to fully recover since I don't have all that caffeine and shit in my system

1:00 increase dopamine 1:27 adenosine : accumulates from awakening in our brain. Creates the sleep pressure bc the more we have, the sleepier we feel. One of the offshoots of the neurons combusting energy. 3:00 A1 and A2 receptors for adenosine. One inhibits the wake promoting areas of the brain and the other increases sleep activating areas. 4:30 caffeine latches onto the adenosine receptors without activating them. So the adenosine can't communicate with the brain to say it's tired. 6:00 caffeine's half life : 5-6h / quarter life : 10-12h but varies among people, depending on liver enzymes (cytochrome P450). 2 gene variants dictate the enzyme speed in breaking down caffeine. 8:00 when the caffeine gets out of your system you get all the adenosine that has been building up while you were under the effects of caffeine so you'll suddenly feel very tired (caffeine crash)

Now about 5 months without caffeine and theine. Before I was most of the time feeling sleepy lacking energy needing lots of coffee to survive the day. The effect is really significant. I wake up sooner having one hour extra in the morning, I have less nightmares. I am finally awake during the day and I no longer have these terrible cravings for coffee. I feel calmer and have now the energy to do Wim Hof method in the morning giving even more energy.... So fantastic, thanks, I'm really grateful!

Finally the clips channel. I've been waiting for this like forever

Coffee makes us feel alert, has zero calories (black), has hunger blunting effects, boosts metabolism and tastes pretty damn good. But that doesn't come for free. Nothing does. In the long run you're better off not relying on drugs to function as a normal human being. I wake up every single day and feel so free that I don't need caffeine to perform my daily tasks. I sleep better. My energy is more stable throughout the day. I have reduced anxiety. The only thing I miss is the taste. Decaf tastes bad and only makes me crave the real stuff so i just go without it. The taste of coffee is not worth feeling like shit 24/7. I can make that sacrifice.

Really compelling ! Could listen all day, especially on natural T supplements and sports nutrition. Andrew is wicked smart!

As someone fairly sensitive to caffiene, "the dose makes the poison", and the importance of the timing of ingestion ring true after years of experimentation. Again, everyone metabolises it differently, and other factors such as stress impact how its affect, not to mention the quality of the source- 3in1 processed coffee loaded with sugar or fresh ground organic beans etc plus many more lifestyle variables...

Coffee use to always affect my sleep. I tried this nootropic coffee from Krios coffee and I no longer have issues because it has this amino acid in it that is in green tea. Its delicious and gives a more calm and natural energy. I wish I could give up caffeine but I love it lol

For me, never affected my sleep, and I remember one day that I had like 6 coffees with one hour before going to sleep, and still I have sleep with any problems, besides waking up two time to go and pee. But with anxiety…This is another problem. Not to say the nightmares. I could give ideas to Stephen King! So I can’t understand people that have problems with coffee when it comes to sleep, but is true that extremely good coffee, increased the anxiety that I had. Not the normal one tho.

Strange. I normally get drowsy within about an hour of drinking a mug of coffee. This doesn't work with commercial coffee providers' coffees. I drink coffee about two hours before I hit the rack, and I sleep throughout most of the evening (waking only to use the restroom, yet falling right back to sleep, afterward). I awake alert and refreshed (and engage in some strenuous exercise before heading off to work. My mother, strangely enough, was this way.

Also a lot off people don’t realise have any form off stimulant for long period of time will burn out the receptor it’s good to cycle off …

Man's on a roll! ❤️

Is it possible to wake up in the morning with adenosine still present becuase of a late evening or night consumption of caffeine? Leading to needing more coffee to feel awake?

As a coffee lover I decided to only drink coffee in the morning. That has increased drastically my sleep quality and is supper easy to fell sleep at night. The sad part is not having a afternoon cup of coffee but I can live without it. You don't need to remove coffee from your life I assure that.

agreed. I usually replace my "afternoon coffee" with an hour nap to restore my energy levels after I come home from work (and it works wonderfully!), I used to drink around 4-5 cups a day to feel "alert", "energetic", and to be able to get through the day, but my sleep suffered so much after doing that, so I reduced my intake to 2-3 cups throughout the day (with my cut off being around 3pm) and I haven't had an issue since. I've also found that letting your body wake up for an hour before drinking coffee or anything with caffeine really helps utilize the effects of it greatly vs drinking it within the first 10 mins of waking up. Just my personal experience though.

Жыл бұрын

Most of your response to caffeine depends on your age and also your health levels. If you are a younger type you’ll instantly get that energy rush. For folks that are in their 30’s or above it works a little bit different. Caffeine tends to travel through our bloodstream relatively quickly any ways so any age can benefit from that quick rush. But in older people they got some sort of health issue like diabetes for example or even if you are young and have asthma for example it’s all in the bloostream so caffeine tends to work it’s way through the blood, but if your veins are a little clogged up from diabetes, other drugs, or anything really that caffeine will take longer to quick in. That’s why I’m younger people since they are very healthy in almost all cases they tend to get that energy rush quickly. Now if you are very healthy and young and workout you’ll definitely have an above average metabolism meaning your metabolism will be fast and that caffeine will get to you faster than an average healthy teen. So my suggestion would be to still drink coffee, but also to keep on exercising as that can improve your health. I personally drink coffee here and there, and instantly feel the rush of energy but it’s because my blood is fairly clean and I get tested every 6 months for every type of illness or things that can damage our bodies. I’m only 28 yrs old so I’m definitely getting to that old stage but hey I’m still loving my coffee.

I'm from Argentina, I have been drinking "mate" since I can remember walking, if I drink mate tea or black tea in the evening I can't sleep, but I can have a decent cup of coffee before bed and I sleep like a baby, is the caffeine from tea different from coffee? Amazing video, thank you for educating us all the way you do!!

I'm not sure if it's accurate but I heard from Michael Pollan that green tea in particular (not sure about blacks) has a sort of mechanism that makes it release the caffeine over a longer period of time, so the caffeine hit is not instantaneous like it is with coffee. It's also one of the reasons why Buddhist monks (I think) drink green tea, as it helps them meditate for longer periods of time without experiencing dullness (meditation term for sleepiness)

@@lacsativ1 from my own experience, this is true. However it's hard to get good green tea in the West. Like good coffee it doesn't keep long and must be brewed quite fresh. The supermarket stuff in teabags is terrible.

i had to stop drinking coffe in the morning because it would just make me even more tired lol.

Wish I never started drinking coffee/tea.. never give up , giving up

I just have one before noon and it helps me sleep

How about decaf?

I don’t understand because I have coffee in the morning and coffee right before bed and I sleep perfectly fine🤷‍♀️ I don’t feel the “crashes” you guys are talking about. And I feel “restored” when I wake up 🤔

4 days no caffeine and already sleeping better also no restless leg syndrome of an evening

So if caffeine just blocks the adenosine, why do people get physical effects such as increased heart rate, anxiety etc?

whats the TLDR??

0:31 Why does Dr. Walker suggest that people should drink coffee? I don't think he clarifies his recommendation in this clip.

Because I love the smell and taste of coffee... I always buy Decaf coffee... When I drink caffeine, it affects my sleep and makes me jittery

All of my friends who are heavy caffeine consumers have anxiety and panic problems.. interesting isn't it?

I have a question for Dr Walker, when you say that there are two genes variants that break down the caffeine in the liver, and that determines the speed of it breaking down in the system, Does that mean that no body can build an immunity to caffeine? By immunity I mean the more cups of coffee one drinks the less of an effect the caffeine has on that person.
