Did you know? The worst time to drink coffee is in the morning?

 Did you know? Eating an apple is more efficient than drinking coffee to wake up. 

Maybe you answer with a no, then, a logical question arises: Why the first hours of the morning is the worst time to drink coffee? This is due to the high level of cortisol in our body in the morning.  

  Well, let's better understand the subject. 

According to the scientific channel of YouTube ASAP Science, scholars say that drinking coffee in the morning generates an opposite effect to what we think. And in the morning there is an intense production of cortisol, a hormone needed to compensate for the burden and the low level of glucose in the blood. 

So, if we ingest caffeine, in a high amount like a cup of coffee in the morning, it causes our body to stop generating the precise amount of this hormone. To make matters worse, by drinking coffee regularly, our body becomes more tolerant to caffeine, which happens to replace "the natural impulse" caused by cortisol.  

Does this mean that we should not drink coffee in the morning? 

Well, scientists recommend drinking coffee between ten in the morning and 12 noon, and between 2 and 5 in the afternoon.
