As an imported product, coffee used to be a symbol of high-end people. Now it is available to the general public. It has undergone many changes. However, Chinese people still know relatively little about coffee.

Drinking coffee to refresh yourself is mainly because of caffeine, which is a special substance. After entering the body, it can stimulate the brain very well, making people feel excited, and it will last for a long time. Most people are not clear about how long this time is. For normal people, it usually takes 8 hours to eliminate 80% of the caffeine, and it takes 10 hours to completely metabolize it. In other words, it takes 10 hours to consume a cup of coffee, so drinking coffee at night can easily cause insomnia.

Drinking coffee too late causes the caffeine to not be consumed in time, so people are always very energetic and can't fall asleep. Therefore, when drinking coffee, you should choose a good time. It is generally recommended that you drink coffee between 12 and 2 o'clock. It should be noted that caffeine will continue to accumulate, so you can't drink too much. One cup a day is enough.
