The first few cups don’t make you feel that way, so by the time you realize you may have a problem, you are already addicted and can’t quit. It plays with your thinking process, so you forget how bad in made you feel and reach for it for the euphoric and stimulating effect again.

    To whom it may concern: If you are trying to quit drinking coffee but suffer with terrible headaches. SWITCH TO BLACK TEA or half caffeine coffee. Don't try to just quit but lower the amount of caffeine by half for about two week. Then you can stop with no headache! Took me years to figure this out.

    Coffee is not just made up of caffeine. This is a big mistake if you want to quit drinking coffee. It has 100s of compounds that are not in the black tea. This is why even if you drink black tea instead of coffee people still get headaches as you’re not only “addicted” to caffeine but also other compounds in coffee. And coffee is not a bad thing if you’re not drinking more than a a few cups a day. Coffee has A LOT of antioxidants people don’t know this. Black Tea also does have some antioxidants but it doesn’t contain as much as coffee. Cocoa also has a lot of antioxidants as well as caffeine but again, not the same as drinking coffee. If you want to quit coffee you can gradually reduce drinking coffee. But drinking tea or other drinks is not going to make you feel better as you experience withdrawal as people get dependent on the coffee which is made up of 100s of compounds not in tea or any other drink, and not just caffeine.

    Quitting caffeine, was the best decision I have ever made. Prior to quitting, I suffered social anxiety, fatigue, lack of motivation, and so many things. I made the decision to stop, and let me tell you it wasn't as easy as I had read and thought. Yes the headaches vanished in the first 2 weeks, I was still lethargic, depressed, and did not have motivations for anything. After about 3 months or so I started to feel normal again, and at around 6 months I feel like a child again, full of energy, focus, motivation, cheerfulness, its an amazing feeling. I made the conclusion that on the contrary of some research claims that it only take 2 weeks of withdrawals, some take much more time specially me who drank 3 cups of coffee a day. Now years since I stoped I still feel so great, its a bless.

    In 2012 I first learned that caffeine can be used to treat pain. I was hospitalized and had to undergo a spinal tap. Following the procedure, I developed a massive headache which came on whenever I sat up in bed or if I tried the stand. Interestingly, there was no pain whenever I was laying down. For over a week they administered almost every narcotic pain meds they could possibly find, but to no avail. Then one day a doctor said to the other doctors on the team, "Did anyone try caffeine?" They got the caffeine and hooked it to the IV, and BAM, within 15 to 20 minutes the headache went away and never bothered me for the remaining 30 days I spent in the hospital.

    There is no safe level to eat of sucrose (table sugar) or brown sugar, or honey, or high fructose corn syrup. It's entirely too concentrated amount of fructose that absolutely hammers the liver, since fructose cannot be used like glucose. Table sugar is 50% glucose, 50% fructose. Fructose from fruit you have to chew up with your teeth is perfectly safe, because it takes time to absorb into the liver; so it does it slowly at a safe rate. Honey is just as bad as table sugar. It is about 40% liquid fructose. It's just too much work for your already overworked liver to process. Your liver already performs over 500 crucial tasks, so take it easy on your liver.

It lowers my social anxiety to an acceptable level where I can actually function. Turns off suicidal thoughts, makes me focused and willing to actually work on the things I come up with

    I quit caffeine two years ago. I quit coffee first, then tea. The first thing I noticed was how my sleep improved within a few months, followed by an increased level of energy. About five years ago I also quit soft drinks, this also brought many health benefits. I don’t intend to drink coffee again; however, I do have the occasional green tea if I visit a friend or go for a meal (green tea has some caffeine). Mint tea is always an option too. I recently read about caffeine induced anxiety, something I’ve seen manifest in many people. I’m not saying everyone should quit caffeine, though it would be beneficial, I’m saying people should moderate their caffeine intake. One caffeine drink per week or per day is sufficient, anything over one per day could lead to health problems.

    Excellent job. I'd love to stop using caffeine but I'd have to stop using caffeine to do it 🤣🤣. But seriously though, thanks for sharing your experience, it actually makes it more appealing to know that you actually noticed the results. At times my caffeine intake has bordered obscene as I work nights and it's been a part of my routine for many years. I'm in my mid fifties now and I'm relatively fit, at my ideal body weight, and I don't indulge in any drugs or alcohol by choice. I know I could give it up, because I quit smoking around 15 years ago and I battled that for several years before I finally quit for good. I never thought I would ever consider giving up caffeine but I have high blood pressure and have noticed that my hands get Shakey when I drink too much. It doesn't make me feel anxious necessarily, but it is embarrassing to see my hands shake and others notice. I have actually gone days before without using caffeine when not at work and honestly other than my hands no longer shaking I can't tell any difference. I guess I have used it so long that it doesn't have much effect on me as a stimulant anyway. It's probably just a bad habit I should drop. Thanks again for your insight, most helpful.

It took me a few years to ween myself off, it's not easy, especially if your social circle spends a lot of time in coffee shops! I would choose a hot chocolate some days, other times it would be a mochaccino. I've worked in teaching so I can relate to those 'shaky' hands, seen it in many teachers, their stress doesn't help either. I knew one lady that would have 20 cups of coffee per day!

    One important point of this video is that cells can respond to a treatment, in this case by increasing the number of adenosine receptors with chronic caffeine consumption. The fact that cells can alter their structure to counteract a treatment is important in understanding the basis of pharmacology. Even cancer cells are able to do this sometimes to evade cancer treatments. It is good to see this topic was discussed in relation to caffeine.

    I use to be a heavy coffee drinker for about 15 years, but I had to cut way down on coffee. I only drink 1 cup a day now. Because, when I was drinking coffee heavily I ended up being rushed to the hospital different times for severe dehydration where one time I was so bad my hands and feet were numb and each time I could not function, I could not stand, I could not sit, and I was pale white. I looked like I was dying. I had to have fluids put into me through an IV. This video does not talk about this, but I just want to let you know what can happen to you. Coffee dehydrates you very much. so, now I plan out when and where I will have that daily cup of coffee. Sometimes I plan to have that coffee in the morning, or I wait till later in the day and order an blended annihilator coffee at Dutch Brothers.

    A very important point that - though it is somewhat obvious - in that context it might have been stressed that coffee is far more complex than caffeine. There are more than 850 substances in coffee about 100 of which are neither researched nor clearly identified yet. Then there are different strains, regions of origin, processing methods, the roast ... and finally the preparation: water temperature, grind size, steeping time, agitation. Being pretty sensible to many substances and foods i want to state that i feel noticeably different after drinking same brewed coffee from different beans. Most important If a coffee tastes bitter and/or is harsh on the stomach chances are temperature and/or steep time was too high. Mostly slow artisanal roasts are much more beneficial. I once had nice tasting wild beans that caused me ocular migraine and also a Yirgacheffe that was highly motivational. Cheers! :)

    I was heavily using caffeine many years ago (as a result of stopping alcohol) and found I had a serious problem with aggression from the stress it caused. So I started taking dl phenylalanine. You don't taper off on coffee when you take it, you substitute the phenylalanine for coffee and you seriously don't want to drink any coffee while you're taking it. It eliminated the withdrawl symtoms and made me feel 100 times better than I did when drinking coffee. Not very long after I stopped taking it because I woke up feeling rested from natural sleep.

I’ve gone to the ER when my heart rate wouldn’t return to normal and what did they give me? A bolus of adenosine. Actually, two because the first didn’t work. Now I know why they gave me adenosine. I’ve been drinking coffee for more than 65 years so I would say I’m not naïve regarding caffeine. I just recently became aware that black coffee (unsweetened) raises my blood sugar by 25-30 points. Don’t know the reason for that unless it’s because coffee increases adrenaline which increases blood sugar. Anyway I thoroughly enjoy these videos as I always learn something.

I want to know the difference between the naturally occurring adenosine in the brain vs the medication. If the medication affect the brain the same way as well...probably not tho, considering it has a short half-life? And the brain adenosine doesn't come to the heart right? Otherwise, you'll die. lol Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Great video as usual! What I admire about your presentation approach is after watching this no one who drinks coffee feels attacked by the way that you presented the information nor is it given in such a way that a non-coffee drinker could boast after watching it; It’s scientifically delivered in such a way that the observer/listener can draw their own conclusions. My personal opinion is that I believe that dependency upon caffeine can really be an issue. I’ve been drinking 2 to 3 cups daily for the past six or seven years and I know that I need to eliminate or extremely reduce the intake of caffeine based on how I been feeling about it both physically and emotionally. I am addicted to it in the sense that I have trouble picturing what a day without “needing” it would feel like. That’s a real issue. I also have a theory that it may be causing excessive tension in my muscles, which possibly may be hindering my potential mobility/flexibility (I’m a grappler so every bit counts). I’m currently reducing the amount every day and hope to quit within the next couple of weeks just to break free from the dependency. Thank you again for another amazing video! As an anatomy and physiology geek myself, your content are top notch 👌

    I've only used caffeine once for a driving emergency the past 3 years. In the past it was the main reason for my persistent cystic acne. Any small amount of caffeine is the difference between attempting to sleep for an hour vs falling asleep within 5-10 mins. Like alcohol, caffeine is unfortunately a socially acceptable drug where most people wouldn't think twice about their dependency. I know my past anxiety came from caffeine preventing good sleep because after quitting, my mood became a lot calmer. I suggest supplementing with vitamin D & fish oil in the morning; zinc and magnesium at night.

    Small amounts of caffeine, such as from a can of coca-cola, makes me speed like crazy for at least an hour. The effects begin within a few minutes of drinking a coke. So obviously I'm sensitive to it, so I don't use it much or too often. Strangely, if I drink a coke in the evening, I sleep really well, usually all night without waking up. If I don't use any caffeine at night, I tend to wake up several times at night, feeling anxious with fast heart rate until I calm down. So there must be some study out there explaining how this works. Why would it make me sleep better? Does it stimulate a part of the brain that's not functioning correctly while sleeping, making it work properly? I don't know but it's weird how it does actually work for better sleep.

    You get addicted bec younfeel giod when you drinking it. You pee a lot bec it is a diuretic and if you do not reflenish with water tendecny of dehydration is always there. Caffeine also a vasoconstrictor means it constricted your blood vessels.. thats why some people palpitate when they drink coffeee due to constriction of blood vessels and heart compensate to pump harder due to limited supplies of bloood to your body. Sum it up if really good and if you reflenish with water after drinking and peeing plus if you have other ihealth issues that may affect your condition.

It just tastes really good to me. The uplift in energy to me wasn't that noticeable. Now if I was trying to go to sleep, the effects would be quite noticeable. I couldn't sleep until the caffeine wore off. Still, I have this passion for a great tasting cup of coffee. The flavor in a good roasted coffee bean is great. Columbian, Brazilian, and any coffee bean that is rich in taste. Mind you, I don't overdo my coffee intake. One or two cups a day is fine to me.

Maybe it has something to do with very low blood pressure but it definitely helps me. Once when my bp reached 79/56 and I felt really unwell, coffee literally rescued me. So for me it's a medicament :) Don't drink it regularly only when I feel unwell due to low bp, have a migraine, etc. Btw thank you for the amazing videos!!

Alcohol, Drugs, Cigarettes, Sex. Go for it. But, know the deadly consequences. Jesus Christ Crucified for your sin is the only way to Salvation.

    I’ve only ever seen diagrams of neurons with a few dendrites. I had no idea & it makes so much sense that they can have thousands!

    I was a "Caffeine Addict," throughout my teen years. I remember having memory problems, an inability to pay attention and/or learn new things, anxiety/panic attacks, low energy, feeling tired and sluggish, jittery, low appetite, migraines & nosebleeds every so often. I suffer from mental illnesses so it comes as no surprise that caffeine made basically all my anxiety symptoms and whatnot even worse. I am now caffeine-sensitive and can barely handle consuming it without having immediate problems or side effects. Having said that, I quit drinking caffeinated soda, coffee & tea over three years ago.

    This is exactly what i’m going through right now, i’m 15, and previously quit caffeine about two weeks ago. It used to feel like it had absolutely no cons, but it started impacting me badly after I started drinking it morning and afternoon every day and going cold turkey for a day to two days every now and then. I used to and currently still am experiencing caffeine withdrawal symptoms and now regret it ALOT.

    @@frankeyspiano7777 coffee and kratom was giving me way too much anxiety throughout the day. I had to quit kratom as well and now I only have a cup of coffee in the morning and not a whole pot. Feel tons better!!
