Are you drinking coffee at the wrong time? Then it does more harm than good! Read this!
Most of us start the day with coffee. Is that a good habit? Is there a right or a wrong time to drink coffee? Caffeine seems to energise you, right?
But the same caffeine can also cause energy crashes, insomnia and even high blood pressure if it is not consumed wisely.
So, let us take a look at what experts say about the right or wrong time to have a cup of coffee.

Fact #1
What happens if you drink your first cup of coffee in the morning? Well, cortisol is a stress hormone and it tends to be at its peaks between 8am and 9am for most of us. If you drink coffee at that time, your stress levels may increase!

Fact #2
Caffeine may boost cortisol levels and when your natural cortisol levels are high, is drinking coffee a wise decision? Your jitters will increase if you drink coffee between 8-9am.

Fact #7
