Morning coffee procrastination habit
The trend of waiting about 90 minutes after waking up to drink coffee is spreading in healthcare communities. Many people believe that this method helps reduce fatigue in the afternoon and limit dependence on caffeine.
Some people when changing habits record that in the early stages, mild headaches and a feeling of fatigue may appear. This is a common reaction when the body has not adapted to changes in the time of caffeine intake.
After a few days, the body gradually adapts better. However, the energy level during the day does not always change significantly. Some people still feel sleepy in the morning if sleep is not guaranteed.
In the later stage, many people realize they are no longer in a hurry to drink coffee right when they wake up. Drinking coffee becomes slower and more relaxing.
What does science say about the time to drink coffee?
Mr. Andrew Huberman - a professor of neuroscience specializing in brain and nervous system research in the US - believes that delaying coffee drinking for about 90 to 120 minutes after waking up can help some people maintain more stable energy and reduce feelings of fatigue in the afternoon.
According to the biological mechanism, caffeine acts on adenosine, a substance that causes drowsiness in the brain. Some hypotheses suggest that waiting longer helps the body process natural adenosine before consuming caffeine.
Currently, there is no strong enough scientific evidence to confirm that the time to drink coffee brings the same benefits to everyone. The response to caffeine depends on sleep, stress level and each person's constitution.
Studies also show that caffeine can affect the hormone cortisol and body circadian rhythm at many times of the day, not just in the morning. Therefore, the effectiveness of delaying coffee consumption is not consistent.
Experts agree that there are no fixed rules for drinking coffee right after waking up or delaying for 90 minutes. Each person needs to monitor their body's reactions to adjust appropriately. Sleep, diet and stress levels are still important factors affecting daily energy.
