Evening Coffee: Why Experts Warn Against It? Impact on Sleep, Anxiety, Digestion Revealed

• Caffeine blocks adenosine receptors, disrupting sleep and circadian rhythm, leading to insomnia.
• Caffeine's 5-6 hour half-life means it remains active in the bloodstream for hours, preventing deep, restorative sleep.
• Increases cortisol levels, causing restlessness, anxiety, and irritability, potentially leading to anxiety problems.
• Acidic nature stimulates gastrin, raising acid reflux and heartburn risk; slows digestion causing bloating and indigestion.
• Temporarily elevates heart rate and blood pressure, putting extra strain on the heart when the body needs rest.
