Global consumption adds up to billions of cups per day, and an estimated 75 percent of the United States population drinks the beverage. Its appeal crosses cultures, ages, and lifestyles and has made coffee a central part of many people’s daily routines. In this episode, Matt and Nick dissect the debate circulating among internet influencers around whether there is an optimal time to consume caffeine in the morning. They discuss individual sensitivity to caffeine, potential negative feedback loops of excessive caffeine consumption, and their own coffee consumption protocols. They also review a 2005 study on how caffeine affects cortisol levels.

I spent the first few decades of my career doing scientific research into the biology of aging, trying to understand the finer details of how humans age in order to facilitate translational interventions that promote healthspan and improve quality of life. Now I want to take some of that knowledge out of the lab and into the hands of people who can really use it. On this podcast I talk about all things aging and healthspan, from supplements and nutrition to the latest discoveries in longevity research. My goal is to lift the veil on the geroscience and longevity world and help you apply what we know to your own personal health trajectory. I care about quality science and will always be honest about what I don't know. I hope you'll find these episodes helpful!
