Coffee Cut

Caffeine is the most widely used drug in the world. Most  morning  coffee drinkers don’t realize it, but their morning cups of coffee set their bodies up for a rollercoaster day of highs and lows, only to bottom out at the point of exhaustion.  

Just a few hours after consumption, when the artificial high dies down, many people may reach for more coffee or something sugary to get another lift, leading to daily fluctuations in energy and alertness, and possibly to eventual chronic adrenal exhaustion.  

The excessive caffeine consumption has simply pushed your adrenal glands so much that they’ve burned out.  Caffeine affects your body just like any drug. You start taking it slowly, but as your body develops a tolerance to it, you need more and more to feel the same effects. 

Like caffeine  nicotine too overstimulate the adrenal glands. Caffeine can have a detrimental effect on blood sugar. When caffeine is ingested, the nervous system is stimulated. Adrenaline is released and, in turn, the liver begins to emit stored blood sugar. Insulin is then released, and blood sugar drops below normal—a common seizure trigger for people with epilepsy. 

Caffeine also constricts  blood vessels in the brain.  Caffiene stimulates the release of stored sugar from the liver—same thing what coca cola does. Avoid caffeine — it increases the stress hormones and adrenaline, which causes a spike in blood sugar.  These quick-fix solutions to lagging energy and poor mood fuel your fatigue and depression and aggravate food craving.

Caffeinism usually combines physical addiction with a wide range of debilitating effects, most notably anxiety, irritability, mood swings, sleep disturbance, depression, and fatigue. Caffeine does not provide energy—only chemical stimulation. The perceived “energy” comes from the body’s struggle to adapt to increased blood levels of stress hormones.  

Caffeine is the Trojan horse.  

It looks like a gift but instead delivers adrenal stress, low blood sugar, mood and energy swings, fatigue, depression, malnutrition, and disturbed sleep. 

Caffeine depletes the body of B vitamins, which you need for proper brain and nervous system functioning and for converting food to energy. with caffeine, we don’t provide the glands anything to make that hormone out of—we just cry “emergency” and force them to figure it out, one way or another. So the body reaches down into its reserves and makes more hormone because it thinks it is the right thing to do. 

Caffeine forces your glands to secrete when they don’t have much left to give, and they have to keep digging deeper and deeper, making you more and more tired over time. Caffeine is top addictive.
