Why Is It Not Good to Drink Coffee in the Morning?

The biological clock controls our waking hours and primarily operates according to sunlight. The biological clock is also responsible for releasing the hormone cortisol, which affects alertness.

Cortisol levels in the body naturally rise at certain times of the day: in the morning between 8:00-9:00, at noon between 12:00-13:00, and in the evening between 17:30-18:30. During these times, the body naturally increases alertness levels, so it's not recommended to drink coffee at these times. Instead, allow the body to wake up gradually and naturally.

In addition to these times, studies show that when a person wakes up from sleep at any time of day, cortisol levels in the blood rise by about 50% and decrease after an hour. Even then, it's recommended to wait at least an hour before having coffee.

As an alternative, naturopaths recommend drinking a green smoothie on hot days, green tea for a fall morning, and water with lemon juice every single day. To your health.
