Is there the best time for coffee?
You should probably be drinking your morning cup of coffee around10 a.m., according to a new video from AsapScience.
AsapScience, a popular science channel, recently released a video claiming that 10am may be the best time to drink coffee.
We know, we know. If you're an I-need-caffeine-as-soon-as-I-wake-up kind of person, this isn't great news. But as AsapScience explains it, the production of cortisol, the "stress hormone" associated with the way the body naturally wakes itself up, generally peaks between 8 and 9 am-right around the time most people are sipping their cappuccinos and lattes.
We know that if you are the kind of person who needs coffee as soon as you get up, this is not good news. AsapScience explained that the secretion of cortisol, the "stress hormone", is associated with the way the body wakes up naturally, with its secretion peaking between 8am and 9am, when most people drink coffee.
Peak cortisol hours also happen between 12 and 1 p.m. And 5:30 and 6:30 p.m. And according to AsapScience, drinking coffee during those hours lessens caffeine's effects.
Other peaks of cortisol production are from 12:00 to one o'clock and from 05:30 to 06:30, respectively. AsaaScience believes that drinking coffee at these times weakens the effect of caffeine.
If you're an early or late riser, your peak cortisol hours are probably different from the average person's. So whenever it is you wake up, just wait a bit before hitting the coffee maker.
People who get up early or late have different peaks and averages of cortisol production. So it's best to get up and make coffee after a while.
Cortisol levels do indeed increase about 50 percent right after you wake up, regardless of the time, "the video explains." Science says, wait at least an hour to get your cup of joe and your body will be optimally ready to go. "
"No matter what time you get up, cortisol levels soar by about 50% after getting up," the video said. Scientists believe that drinking coffee an hour after getting up can give the body more motivation. "
Hey, we're all about reaping all of coffee's benefits-especially because it's been linked to a healthier heart and, ahem, a lower risk of erectile dysfunction. Let's keep that stuff brewing.
We are also trying to make full use of the benefits of coffee, especially when we hear that it can strengthen the heart and reduce erectile dysfunction. You can't stop drinking coffee.
