Caffeine good for sleepy old guy ?

[cyclops222]

How many old guys use a cup of Caffeine to become active enough for many hours ? I am ready to do it.

Yep. I drink a cups of coffee every morning. Black. I like it to taste like coffee.

I typically drink 2-3 cups of black coffee before leaving the house in the morning. Drink two more cups during my morning meeting with the Service Department then several more throughout the day.

Mix in a few double shot, “Grande” Lattes in here and there for a change of pace

a half a pot on the way into work. another 3-4 large cups . I tried not drinking coffee..... the court date is pending.

So far haven't needed caffeine to get through a day. Everyone else I work with drinks it like water even on banker hours. Not gonna kill you I guess.

I am buying a 1/2 of a quart of Half and Half milk to enjoy each cup and increase my Calcium intake.
Thank you everyone.

I love my morning coffee. I can function without it but it sure makes my day better. I usually have a cup or two after dinner as well with a slash of Kahlua.

I can't drink coffee, I did for years but now my gut does not toloratre it. Do not try an energy drink that is poison.

Same here, came from a family of coffee drinkers. Late in life started having gut issues, dropped to one cup in the morning only, gut is doing much better! Mother passed due to cancer issues, coffee was partly to blame for her issues. Some folks can handle it and others have issues, just depends on your body...

I drink a 1/2 pot per morning in general, and I’ve been grinding my own beans lately. My K Duo quit and they no longer make that specific model anymore which I really like so I had to find one NOS on Ebay. In the mean time I bought a can of instant coffee. I’ve had the new pot a week just not set up yet to use up the instant stuff. It’s been rough

I’m 70, been drinking coffee (and tea) for 50+ years. in moderation, 1 or 2 cups a day in the morning. I think it’s mostly just a habit, gotta start the day with my coffee. I don’t notice that it gives me any more energy although I know caffeine is a stimulant. I don’t like the fancy coffees like you get at those chain coffee places. I get a mixture of different coffee beans at the store and grind it myself. Darn, I do love my morning coffee.

 

[flashback]

Only in the AM 4 or 5 cups, gets me alert.

 

[cyclops222]

My first day of 2 morning cups. Feeling great and doing little jobs & exercising

 

[sphelps]

Usually just one cup a day . I can’t tolerate it without a little cream and sugar/sweet and low .

 

[airshot]

I don't use sugar in my coffee or my tea, especially not in my ice tea !! Guess I am so sweet, I don't need any more sugar !!
