Caffeine does induce wakefulness and reduce fatigue. But what you don't know is that caffeine doesn't actually make people feel energetic and awake. The wakefulness it brings is to suppress the body's natural response to fatigue.

The half-life of caffeine is quite long, about five hours. After drinking coffee, even after five hours, half of the caffeine acts in the body, affecting sleep. Of course, the duration of caffeine residue varies from person to person, and some people take a long time to rule it out.

Caffeine, no matter when it is used, not only affects the time of sleep, but also affects the quality of sleep. Each person's physique is different, the sensitivity is different, the degree of influence is also different. However, this effect probably can not be avoided by everyone. No matter what you do to improve insomnia, you should first reduce the amount of coffee and caffeine.
