Quitting coffee for just two weeks may make people less impulsive and less stressed, and switching to decaf could improve sleep and memory, a study suggests.
Scientists tracked 62 healthy adults to examine how coffee affects the body and brain. The group included 31 regular coffee drinkers and 31 people who did not drink coffee.
They found regular coffee drinkers experienced more impulsive behaviour and emotional reactivity than people who did not drink coffee.
The trial was relatively small, involving only 62 people.

Yeah, true. I do two dark espresso drip coffees in the morning and I’m good for the rest of the day.
Not going to happen in my house. I just drank my first latte with the new espresso machine that arrived yesterday. My old one gave up after 10 years.
I call b.s. on this entire post!
I tried quitting coffee once when my husband was out of town, and I was experimenting with intermittent fasting. Because I use cream and sugar with my coffee, I would wait to have a cup until about 11 am. My problem is when I wait that late to have a cup, I will have trouble falling asleep at night. So for 6 days I gave up coffee altogether. Big mistake, by day 7, I was on caffeine withdrawal big time. I got headaches, and I was bitchy. It was not pretty.
I decided giving up coffee was a bad idea. I do have one cup every morning, but it’s half decaf, half regular coffee. I tried giving up the cream and sugar, but that just didn’t work for me at all.
Green tea supplement, and keep regular coffee.
I’ll drink strong black coffee within a half-hour of going to bed, and sleep like a baby. Having a cup right now.
I don’t drink coffee because I like it, I drink it for everyone else’s safety.
For many years, my mom dad, little sister and I drove down the map from a Chicago suburb to New Orleans to visit my grandmother for Easter Vacation.
When we reached the coast, we visited my grandfather and two of his sons and their families. Men worked at Ingalls Shipyard, building ships for WW2.
One of my uncles had a little boy named James Henry, who, at 4 or 5, drank coffee every morning or he cried: “Ah want mah co-fee”
Now, at my advanced age, make half-caf eveery morning. Buy bottles of organic instant at Safeway, one regular and one decaf. Put equal amounts in the cup. Gets me awake and my beloved cat, Daisy sits on mu lap when I do. Listen to news on the radio. Morning ritual for us.
I have been known to have a nice hot cup of coffee after dinner. Helps me sleep quicker.
How many cups of coffee were the 31 drinking?
What time of day were they drinking it?
How many years had they been drinking it?
What type of job do they have?
Married, divorced or part of the LGBTWRSTUVWXYZ freak show?
Political background?
Overall health?
Ages?
A study of 62 people is not a study. More like a small random sample.
Indeed life isn’t Eden it’s the hell you go through to get there.
Great news!
Something else I can feel guilty about.
It’s good news for me.
It helps me displace the things I really should feel guilty about like the things I used to do to keep my yard in tip top condition.
1500 is generally the smallest group that can be used in a respectable study.
