Who should not have coffee?

.

The best time for most people to consume coffee is between 9:30 am and 11:30 am, when cortisol levels start to dip, allowing caffeine to provide a sustained energy boost without overstimulating the body.

Not everyone should consume coffee. Certain people should limit or avoid coffee due to its effects on health.

Those with anxiety or insomnia may find that caffeine worsens their symptoms by increasing restlessness and interfering with sleep.

Individuals with high blood pressure should be cautious, as coffee can cause temporary spikes in blood pressure levels.

Pregnant women are advised to limit caffeine intake, as excessive consumption may affect fetal development.

Additionally, people with heart conditions or irregular heartbeats may experience palpitations due to caffeine.

Those who are caffeine-sensitive or prone to migraines should also consider reducing or eliminating coffee from their diet.

Those struggling with poor gut health or digestive issues like IBS and IBD may also experience discomfort.

Excessive caffeine intake (more than 400-600 mg daily) can interfere with iron absorption, leading to thinning bones, early ageing, and even anxiety and insomnia.
