Hey Jennie!
When it comes to the question, there are more topics to consider. These include how long does coffee last when you drink it, when does it leave your stomach, what effects it produces and what factors the effects depend on. Let’s tackle these questions one by one.
How long does coffee take to kick in?
It has been proven that the levels of caffeine peak in the blood within 15-45 minutes of consumption, This is when most people experience its strongest effects.
How long does a cup of coffee last?
Even though the effects of the coffee peak at this time, this doesn’t mean that the coffee won’t last more than an hour. The caffeine also has a half-life of about 5 hours, meaning that half the amount of caffeine you consume stays in the system for another 5 hours.
How long will you feel the effects of caffeine?
This depends on how sensitive you are to caffeine. While some people might feel ready for another cup after a couple of hours, others will feel its effects until the next day. This is highly personal and depends on age, body weight, and caffeine sensitivity.
Caffeine on an empty stomach
While caffeine increases the production of stomach acid, it doesn’t cause any coffee digestive tract issues for most people. However, some people report negative effects such as heartburn, vomiting, or jitters. It’s important to pay attention to your body and if you experience these effects when drinking coffee on an empty stomach, make sure you drink enough water or consume the food before you ingest the jittery liquid.
What does coffee do to your stomach?
Coffee stimulates movement of the muscles in the colon, which is why consumption can cause a bowel movement. Coffee also increases the production of hormones like adrenaline and noradrenaline which gives you a sensation of having more energy.
