Your first cup of coffee might not be helping as much as you think. Hereโs why.
Hereโs what you may not know: There are prime times during your day to drink coffee to get the best effects, and those times aren't necessarily first thing in the morning. If youโre drinking coffee during that timeframe, youโre drinking it at a time when youโre already naturally at your maximum level of alertness. Drinking coffee during your natural cortisol peak can cause you to develop a tolerance to caffeine. โIn other words, the same cup of morning coffee will become less effective,โ Miller said. Even if coffee is the first thing you want to taste in the morning, if youโre using it for a pick-me-up, it might behoove you to try waiting a little while.
