I never habitually drank coffee until I was well into my 30s; but I remember when I was younger, my Grandma would always have a cup of coffee right before bed. I never understood how she could do that.
About a month ago, I was having trouble sleeping through the night - something that has never happened to me, and which I chalked up to some recent big life changes.
But one sleepless night, I got the idea to drink a cup of coffee in the wee hours, and then went back to bed. Slept like a baby many hours longer!
Since then I’ve done it a few more times, and it always seems to strangely relax me. I’m not sure exactly what’s operating; I have a lot of allergy/sinus issues, and I know that caffeine can help with that - so maybe that’s it. Or maybe it’s just some reverse mechanism that comes with getting old.
Now I’ve discovered Espresso...
This cancer should run screaming from my body because I have read this. Coffee is one of the food groups!
