Episode notes
Brush Before Breakfast
- Brush your teeth before eating or drinking anything in the morning to avoid swallowing overnight oral bacteria.
- This protects your gut microbiome and preserves enamel, especially before acidic breakfasts.
Hydrate First Thing
- Drink a big glass of water with a pinch of electrolytes right after you wake and brush to rehydrate your 'sponge' brain.
Delay Morning Caffeine
- Wait 60–90 minutes after waking to have caffeine so you capitalize on natural morning cortisol and avoid early adenosine blockade.
- Liz times her matcha around 11am to avoid anxiety and protect sleep.
