I like my coffee like I like my steering wheel. 10:00 and 2:00

Where did they get the 10 am time? Seems like it was pulled out of their asses.
I get up at 4 am for work, and drink 4 cups of coffee over the course of 2-3 hours.

>Where did they get the 10 am time? Seems like it was pulled out of their asses. presumably they measured a subject's blood cortisol levels over the course of the day, and recommended taking coffee at times of the day that cortisol levels are naturally at their lowest, while not negatively affecting the sleep cycle.

Both of them seem to fuck up my stomach.

What time did the subject wake in the mornings? 4 am? 6 am? 8 am?
It's dumb and I'm mad and I hate people telling me what to do with my body.

Having some fruits and such when waking up does a better job at starting your body then coffee does. Then you keep it going during the late morning slowdown.

>caffeine in tea is magically not addictive Nobody is claiming this. Caffeine in tea is so addictive that USA and UK fought a war over it.... Then they sit back and laugh at China fighting over opium like they're any better

Always wondered what the hell made tea so damn special to Brits.

>Always wondered what the hell made tea so damn special to Brits. I think they were pretty much required to buy as much tea as possible as part of their patriotic civic duty. British citizens were expected to whatever possible to support their countrymen in the colonies, and this is how they supported the guys colonizing india and sri lanka

I just drink a cup of water and listen to Nickelback while I browse Veeky Forums.
