Does Coffee make you tired? Find out why
 

Caffeine has a more damaging effect on you than you think.....

First, caffeine is a vasoconstictor (it shrinks your blood vessels) thereby, it increases your heart rate and blood pressure. This is why caffeine is so effective for treating headaches.

Second, caffeine is also a diuretic (it makes you pee).

Therefore, if you are already dehydrated, then the caffeine will not have enough blood volume to shrink down the vessels to increase your blood pressure, and the caffeine will increase your dehydration to make you more tired.

Tip: this is what I do. Drink at least 3 to 4- 8 ounce glasses of water before drinking one cup of coffee. You will run to the bathroom in 20 minutes, but you see that you will have more pep and energy and use the 3 to 4 rule with every cup. You will find that you need less coffee to give you more energy:thumbsup:thumbsup

Let me see if I understand your thought process:

1)caffeine increases heart rate and blood pressure.
2)Caffeine removes water from your system.
3)??????
4)You get more tired from caffeine.

Conclusion: drink water.

I quit smoking and drinking and got married. No booze, smokes or sex.

Coffee is my only vise left. Don't fucking mess with it. :disgust

This is definitely true. in the morning i would usually eat a small breakfast and wash it down with 1 or 2 cups of coffee then feel like i was going to go into a coma 30 minutes later.

The only reason i noticed when i wasnt getting tired was because i was drinking water before and after coffee. i get really bad acid reflux and this would sometimes help out.

I dont know the scientific reason, but i figured it was something along this line

relax- u might want to switch to decaf, the op is only suggesting to drink water with your coffee.

Drink 24 to 32 ounces of water before coffee? I dont drink that much water in a day unless I make a point of standing in front of the sink with my big water cup. I've been hooked on coffee since I was 13 or so.
My plan is to buy a can of decaf and mix it with the regular until I'm drinking almost total decaf. Why can't I do that lol :)

yeah so everybody get on redbull, or cocaine :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

coffe is evil

:thumbsup

u got married and have no sex? :helpme

It's funny how about half the people on this planet drink coffee when they have a hangover hoping they will feel better while coffee makes your hangover worse.

It's responses like this that keep me coming back to GFY.

I dont know if this will help you, but with bad cases of Acid Reflux its sometimes attributed to a faulty Thyroid. Ask your Dr to give you a simple blood test to make sure its working, if its under active it can cause massive acid reflux problems :helpme

very true :thumbsup:thumbsup

What part of "married" did you miss?

I wondered why sometimes when I have a giant Dunkin Donuts coffee, I sometimes go right to sleep.

Everything that dsnow told you about coffee is correct! As for my self i just to drink before 3-4 big cups of this shit! And i was nervous, angry and stuff like that!

And know what? I stop drinking coffee, now i drink only one small cup! Real small!
But instead of coffee i drink GREEN TEE! Its much better cause green tee holds you a whole day long(cause it have caffeine), but your body absorbs it much easily!
And GREEN TEEN have longer effect then coffee!

Coffee is just hit and run! Just hit you in the head and thats it, after 20-30 minutes you are feeling like shit!

Don't believe me! STOP Drinking coffee for 2 weeks and drink GREEN TEE, and you'll see!!!

thank you, you are a very knowledgeable person:thumbsup

Heheh like i am! Lol!

Damn, I thought it was the alcohol.....
So just no coffee and I'll be fine next time :thumbsup
It does makes sense, since I feel worse after a few coffees in the morning in a rough weekend.

I've been reliably informed that coffee replaces all blood in your body with 100% pure cool.

I'm having a chilled coffee drink right now. Ahh.

interesting

i drink ice americanos w/no sugar all day long

Crank would probably be cheaper and less detrimental to your health. Hell, just ask for the leftover grounds and use it like snus.

:upsidedow:upsidedow:upsidedow:Oh crap:upsidedow:upsidedow:upsidedow

I just had one while working out on the deck. Of course mine was decaf. I can't handle caffeine these days :upsidedow

3 - 4 glasses of water before you drink a cup of coffee? :1orglaugh

People post some stupid shit on this forum trying to look smart.

So you are saying you drink just 1 cup of green tea?

As for the green tea, I noticed this too, it's healthy and keeps you happy but you'll crave coffee. Coffee is more flavorful then boring green tea.
