I am fuelled solely by coffee. My daily dose is around 3000 to 3500 milligrams of caffeine which I almost get solely from coffee - without sugar and milk, of course. When I have the rare opportunity to sleep late I often get up with a splitting headache due to withdrawals which I normally kill off by taking two 200 mg tablets of caffeine and a glass of caffeine/taurin mix.

I'd pick coffee over tea any day, but hot cocoa is my favourite. Add cinnamon and whipped cream, and nothing equals it.

Well, in Denmark, or at least in Jutland, we just call it KAFF.

After I starting drinking coffee, I find it hard to stop. I struggle for long days at work with an aching stomach from all the coffee I've been having. I am getting back into tea drinking. Black tea + fresh herbs from the garden is the best.

If I drink a cup of coffee or a normal espresso, I'll get abnormally relaxed, rather lethargic.

If I drink a strong espresso, I'll get staggering so groggy and dazed, with only one thought in my mind: "GOD, GIVE ME A BED!"

Actually, Caffeine has a paradoxical effect in some people, namely hyperactive people:

Quote:
The effect of coffee depends on several things. When you are not quite awake, as may happen after getting up, it helps to energize you.

When you are already alert and active, it may overstimulate you and in some, the body responds to that state by dampening down its own metabolism. That explains why coffee may relax you.


Coffee scientists speak of paradoxical effects; in fact, it is a normal compensatory reaction of the body in situations when you are inclined to sooth your agitated state. Focus on the joy of coffee drinking. Enjoyment is the best means to relax

I drink coffee before I go to sleep at night - sleep like a lamb.
