Optimizing Your Coffee Routine:
- Caffeine Intake: Wait at least one hour after waking up to drink your caffeine. This allows your natural cortisol rhythms, which help regulate your circadian rhythm and wakefulness, to peak and start declining. Aligning caffeine intake with these rhythms enhances its effects on alertness and focus throughout the day.
- Choose quality coffee: Selecting high-quality, organic coffee beans ensures a rich and flavourful brew while minimising exposure to pesticides and other harmful chemicals.
- Hydration: Start your day by hydrating your body with water enriched with minerals and natural electrolytes, such as Celtic sea salt. These essential nutrients support hydration and cellular function, ensuring optimal performance throughout the day.
- Use filtered water: When brewing your coffee, opt for filtered water instead of tap water. Tap water may contain chemicals and heavy metals that can alter the taste of your coffee and potentially impact your health over time. Filtered water ensures a purer brew, free from unwanted contaminants.
- Avoid late in the day: Refrain from consuming caffeinated beverages within the last 10 hours of your day to avoid disrupting your sleep architecture and circadian rhythms. Caffeine has a half-life of approximately 6 hours, meaning it can linger in your system and interfere with your ability to fall asleep and experience restorative sleep cycles.
