What you could be doing wrong with your coffee drinking
You’re not drinking it at the right time
Sure, you probably already know you shouldn’t be having coffee late at night. Caffeine can stay in the body for around six hours, so even drinking it the late afternoon/evening might lead to a restless night. But those who drink coffee as soon as they get up are apparently also doing it wrong, according to science. By having your first coffee as soon as you wake up, or even in the first hour, you could actually be building your intolerance to it, making the caffeine hit less effective over time.
You’re not drinking the right amount
Too much caffeine can cause some serious health problems including insomnia, raised blood pressure, heart palpitations and increased urination. Harvard researchers though reckon that a certain number of cups of coffee a day can have seriously good health benefits.
Your drinking it too hot
Coffee has an optimum temperature for richness and comfort. Much above that and not only do you risk burning your mouth, but the taste might be affected. Studies into the matter have found the best temperature for drinking coffee to be around 57.8C.
