A couple people commented that coffee / caffeine *suppresses* their hunger rather than increase it like I was saying in the video. Actually, I agree with this. Actually when I was drinking coffee, I would set my intermittent fasting schedule to where the appetite suppressant "boost" of coffee would make it easier to get through those last 90 minutes of fasting. Yes, caffeine / coffee suppresses appetite at least temporarily. However, *in my experience* (as stressed in the video, different people react very differently to caffeine and coffee), what seemed to be happening was that my normal appetite when coffee wore off was higher than usual. Though I did experience the appetite suppressant effect right after I drank it. At least for me, coffee isn't a free anti-lunch. While I do get a temporary appetite suppressant boost, the downside is that I have to pay for that with interest at a later point with a bigger appetite.

_“my normal appetite when coffee wore off...”_ See, that was your first mistake- you let the coffee wear off! You’re supposed apply decremental doses of coffee to your esophagus in regular intervals so it never fully wears off. Start by timing how long the effects of 1 strong cup lasts, then commit to drinking a new cup 15-20 minutes before the last one wears off. Constant caffeination is key!

I'm not sure if anyone else has made this comment but I noticed that you said you were fine drinking coffee with milk but still found straight coffee bitter. Perhaps it might actually be the milk if anything as regular full-fat milk has a lot of fat which could explain the weight decrease when you stopped and not feeling hungry after coffee temporarily.

Coffee causes hypoglycemia... This causes tiredness and the need to eat... This can be avoided by not drinking sugarless coffee... It's ok to add sugar to coffee... But milk is not necessary... Drinking milk with coffee is what causes the obesity.... If you are diabetic however... You should totally avoid coffee. Also hypoglycemia is also responsible for the jitters in most cases... By adding sugar to your brew you can avoid this... Too much caffeine however will still cause jitters if you are a slow metaboliser... Just like how some people can't handle as much alcohol as other people... Like me 😅 I can't handle much alcohol being an indian but I can definitely handle my coffee ! But I do get jitters if I drink it without sugar and that's because of hypoglycemia... I hope I was informative. Cheers !

This is SO important. I'm young(ish) (29). I used to drink one regular cup of normal coffee a day for years, nothing special. It never made me jittery, anxious, or anything like that. One night I experienced SVT (supraventricular tachycardia, you can look it up) and had to go to the hospital. Since then, I had continuous chest pain over my heart and palpitations daily. I saw a cardiologist, asked if coffee could possibly be the culprit, and he said absolutely not because "one cup of coffee a day wouldn't cause my symptoms, and coffee is even cardioprotective." Long story short, I had a CT scan, an echocardiogram, countless EKGs and urgent care visits. All normal, no answers. FINALLY decided on my own to quit coffee entirely, which was hard because I really loved my one cup. Sure enough, every single symptom VANISHED. No more chest pain, palpitations, shortness of breath. I now drink decaf coffee everyday (sadly) as I love the taste of coffee. If I ever have even a sip or two of regular coffee, chest pain and palpitations come right back. I just want to echo WIL in saying that everyone reacts differently to caffeine, and you know your body best. Plus, I definitely had no idea how much more relaxed/less anxious I'd be after quitting. Drink wisely!

i literally just read a study that said caffeine reduces hunger. "Appetite suppression. Caffeine may reduce feelings of hunger and your desire to eat for a brief time." "Calorie burning. Caffeine appears to increase energy use even when you're at rest. It stimulates thermogenesis - one way your body generates heat and energy from digesting food." I found that to be much more in line with how I feel after caffeine. It's crazy how it can have such a different effect on people. For you, it seems to make you gain weight, for me, it makes me lose weight.
@luisoncpp4 жыл бұрын
The appetite suppression is not because of the caffeine, it has more to do with the coffee itself. You can have the same effect from decaffeinated coffee and missing the effect completely from caffeine pills. About the calorie burning, there doesn't seem to be a consensus. Some studies claim that it helps and other that it doesn't. It also depends on when you take the caffeine, in the morning the cortisol is useful but in the late afternoon/night it could be detrimental.

Time for an anecdotal comment. I used to enjoy brewing my own coffee at home, but unfortunately I’m one of those people that has an early morning job and can’t get to sleep before 1am despite my efforts. So for the best part of my life I sacrificed my morning brew at home to have more time getting ready for work. Since I don’t like spending too much money at coffee places, I skipped having coffee outside of my house or at least tried reducing it to maybe 1-2 espressos a week. Fast forward until a couple months ago when the lockdown started and I was drinking half a litter of coffee every day. First my circadian rhythm was thrown off by never seeing sunlight, then I started going to bed at 3am and getting up for early web meetings at 8am and of course coffee was my go to drug. I got progressively stressed out while doing my job, I put on a lot of weight and I couldn’t understand why every time something didn't go according to plan I was enraged. I couldn’t longer exercise because my own sweat started giving me a skin allergy, can you believe that? Long Story short, I quit coffee(not caffeine) around a month ago. I’m only sticking to Mate which is an Argentinian tea, a liter of water per 40-50grs of yerba mate. I’m feeling better already. I’m more focused, I don’t get such exaggerated physical responses when things don’t go my way. I’m eating better, I’m less hungry. It’s overall easier to be the person I try to be (does this make sense to anyone? Anyway, thanks for reading :)

This may not have been from the caffeine part of coffee but rather 1 of the hundreds of chemicals within coffee. Coffee is actually a really complex substance with many different compounds within it, and some of those compounds vary based on the type of coffee, where its grown, how its processed, etc. People focus a lot on the caffeine coffee has but as a result not much is known about how these other compounds affects the body, so its possible you were having an adverse reaction to one of these compounds which is why switching worked for you.

As a published researcher and PhD in the biotech, I agree with your findings: + Short-term coffee is an appetite suppressant and has a positive effect on anxiety. (BTW Smoking also decreases appetite, yet there are major negatives associated with smoking.) + Long-term adaption to coffee (and caffeine in general) has the opposite effect increasing adenosine neuro-receptors, evidence does point to coffee/caffeinated sodas as a major factor in global obesity. Summary Coffees AND caffeinated sodas (even diet) everyday are too much caffeine. Most of us need to modify our behavior. For 2 months, try substituting decaf coffee on a daily basis, with a double shot of real coffee once a week. Save your caffeine to peak performance for a race, important meeting or deadline.

So, yeah, caffeine got me into a never ending keto flu until I realized that months later :P So, heads up with your electrolytes and overconsumption.

@to that objectively weighing the risks of any compound is what is important, not all-out abstinence. you seem to have a strong stigma attached to any daily use of any compound. for something like coffee, the risk and negative effects are so incredibly negligible for some people, that it doesn't matter if they're dependent on coffee / caffeine. really, objectively, what's the WORST thing that could happen to someone who has a minor dependence on coffee for their entire life? is it really necessary or at all helpful to deem all who are okay with dealing with that dependence as "weak?" that's the same school of thought used in D.A.R.E. programs that INCREASE people's likelihood to use illicit compounds. abstinence and stigmatization is NEVER GOING TO OBJECTIVELY HELP THOSE AT RISK OF DEPENDENCE AND ADDICTION. objective evaluation of all potential risks of ANY COMPOUND is the ONLY way to keep people safe, not putting people down for having substance abuse issues. and beyond that, objective evaluation of the risks and benefits of coffee is extremely subjective, as shown in this video, which demonstrates that there is no broad generalization for users being "weak" for coming to the conclusion that coffee dependence is fine. I've been drinking coffee on and off my entire life. the idea that there is ONE answer for all people is idiotic. I don't have ANY of the symptoms listed in this video, and many are in the same boat as me. no one is saying daily consumption of any compound doesn't come with physiological changes. anyone who is remotely familiar with the effects of coffee knows this, and realizes that any perceived negative effects may not be present for all people, and thus, carries no risk for a lot of individuals. Imagine generalizing any group of people based upon your own beliefs and stigma. that's a WAY weaker move than having a cup of Joe each morning.

Coffee is a strong diuretic. I makes you loose a lot of natrium(sodium). It's just funny how the caffeine withdrawal symptoms overlap with hyponatremia symptoms. Of course you start craving food after coffee. Especially salty food. Disclaimer: this is just what I think happens. At one time in my life I was prescribed carbamasepine to treat panic attacks. This medication controls the sodium channels. And one of its side effects is hyponatremia. I took the pills for a few weeks and developed a very strong thirst that would never go away, no matter how much water I drink. I stopped taking these pills, but later I discovered the same thirst when I would drink coffee every day. I would feel physically and emotionally drained, and would feel hunger and longing for food. I think it's all connected. Maybe you should dig more into diuretic properties of caffeine?

As a regular caffeine drinker for the last 6 or 7 years, who has also experimented with significant breaks of varying lengths, and has also experimented with different nootropic compounds that both enhance and diminish effects of caffeine, what I've concluded is this: caffeine can have vastly different effects on people as a result of individual body and brain chemistry. Prolonged caffeine use can and usually does affect things like short term memory, intrinsic motivation capability, sleep quality, and even may be have some link to increase in depression. Caffeine is a drug, and like any drug, daily, long-term will have effects on us, and for some people those effects can be more negative and debilitating than for other people. And as such, ceasing caffeine use abruptly can also introduce some temporary negative effects. For me those mainly tend to be in the form of severe depression and lack of motivation, difficulty maintaining focus, and difficulty staying awake during the day. HOWEVER, I have found that after a while, these symptoms disappear. But that "while" can be a very, very long while, longer than you may think. I've heard of people who stopped taking caffeine almost a year ago and still don't feel quite normal. I think we underestimate just how much daily use of a drug can affect brain chemistry long term. I am not advocating for anyone to quit caffeine, but I think the effects of caffeine have been understated for far too long, and people should be more educated on what this drug can do to a person. All this said, at this time, I am still using caffeine on a daily basis, but have tried to keep my use to around 200mg per day or less. And man oh man, is it difficult to quit, even if I really want to. Caffeine has got to be the most easily obtainable, readily available drug in the history of humanity. And as any addict knows, keeping your DOC out of sight and out of mind is key to overcoming any addiction.

Stopped drinking coffee years ago because I felt jitters, anxious and restless after drinking coffee. This year I have stopped drinking tea and I feel much calmer, have more energy, sleep better, better focus and I have motivation to do things.

On a carb diet, I constantly feel sleepy and lethargic, so I end up taking more than 1 or up to 3 coffee a day, just to keep myself awake through the day. Stop carb, and you will either need 1 or no coffee at all. Now I feel my 1 coffee every morning is just out of habit, and not a necessity. That's my relationship with coffee. I wonder if that is what everyone also goes through
@ptlovelight29714 жыл бұрын
Totally agree. On a high carb SAD, I was blowing through a giant 20 oz tumbler of coffee (probably 4-5 cups). But then I was fat, lethargic, and highly inflammed in my joints. Went keto in 2018, and got down to just one 6-8oz cup. I don't NEED to have it now, and I have it only once or twice a week. My anxiety and energy has definitely improved since I stopped drinking so much of it.

Jitu Teron I definitely drink less coffee on a low carb diet. Typically just one cup a day (sometimes none) compared to 3+ with high carb. (I don’t handle high carbs well, though.). This reduction happens without me trying or thinking about it. It’s spontaneous. Even more interesting is how I spontaneously stop drinking coffee altogether when fasting. Not only do I feel I don’t need it, my energy increases so much that it doesn’t seem appealing.

Decaf is worse because caffeine is the poison that keeps the insects away so with decaf they have to spray even more pesticides than regular coffee. and as someone already mentioned decaf still has trace amounts of caffeine, along the lines of 5+ mg per serving. I recently ordered coffee alternatives that contain no caffeine called dandy blend and teeccino. I haven't tried it yet but a lot of people use it to quit coffee.

Quitting any addiction cold turkey is going to come with some major side effects. I usually take 1-2 weeks to successively reduce my caffeine intake to 0 and skip the headaches, but the length of time it takes will be dependent on how much you drink and for how long you've kept it up.

But this only is noticable once you get through the "hard part", the part where your body actively tries to go to sleep and there is little to no distraction to keep you awake. After that part there was this blisful moment. Felt amazingly calm, confident. Sleep deprivation is crazy.

I often go through periods of quitting coffee followed by gradual relapse(it's nice to have a warm drink in the hand). But more recently I've been doing daily crawling exercises and have noticed that my reaction to coffee seems to be different, both more dissatisfied with its taste, and less of an obvious reaction, so I am cutting down once again. While I've always done exercise, the contralateral movement in crawling is said to be highly stimulating to the nervous system and can improve your coordination and athleticism(The Bioneer has a great video on crawling that discusses this in some detail), which suggests that it would hit all the adenosine receptors mentioned in this video and push up their fitness, changing the cycle of caffeine response. I've also noticed that loud sounds in the city sound louder. My hypothesis is patchy, but it seems like the change in exercise is actually improving my senses, and also how I respond to coffee. But it also makes sense the other way around with your hand sensitivity - no blockage of the receptors means better senses.

I'm a Finn. I used to drink 6-12dl of coffee (with milk or oat milk) every day for ~10 years. I quit cold turkey. No negative side effects. My ability to fall asleep improved substantially. I did other life changes at the same time, so it's hard to say if that was 100% because of quitting coffee, but it's the most plausible explanation. I did drink tea at the time, but obviously the amount of caffeine from that was a fraction of what I consumed earlier. Now I'm back on ~4dl of black coffee per day (1 large cup right after lunch). I'm planning on letting it go again. I love coffee, but I suspect I'm better off without it.

I think the hunger you mention feeling from coffee is actually from the sugar in the milk, not the caffeine or the coffee. I've definitely noticed the same thing about my appetite but only when I started adding almond milk--it was a significant enough experience that I mentioned it on my weight loss blog a few months ago. Earlier in the video you also mention that black coffee makes you jittery and nauseous, but adding milk makes this go away, so I'm willing to bet the hunger is from a blood sugar spike from the milk you're putting in it.
