Do you think coffee helps give you energy or takes away from it?

As far as I’m concerned and what I know from experience and what I heard. It depends. It can have different effect on each person…. But for me most of the time it boosts my energy. And I think the more often you drink, the less effect it has.. Because your body gets used to it….

I don’t like coffee at all. But other drinks with caffeine gives a feeling of energy at first but usually makes me just tired

It definitely helps most mornings – I need a caffeine boost. However you can always have too much of a good thing! Buildup of caffeine after a while doesn’t help me at all so I don’t have a coffee every morning to try and not build up an “addiction”

I usually start my day with a coffee, so for me it’s more energizing, but i guess just testing it out for a week is going to help a lot more.

I think it gives me energy for a while, but when I’m almost done with the coffee I will start to have jitters. I think since my body does that, it wears me out and I come off the buzz of the coffee. Coffee does not give me energy for the whole day, at least not a good type of energy. It wakes my body up, but doesn’t help my mind.

It probably depletes energy in the long run, but when you have a baby sometimes you need some extra help to push through!

I think it depends on me, what I want to get from drinking coffee. If I want to relax I drink some coffee With milk and usually go to sleep. If I want to increase my energy I drink a little less coffee a do my work

I definitely find it great for the moment, but I also pay for it later and find myself running at half speed towards the evening. Instead I try to have a quick boost of sugar for energy, but in as healthy a way as possible, like from an apple, or berries.

Coffee provides energy via caffeine, which-like any drug- your body may become addicted to & then it’s less useful. Delaying it until your natural circadian rhythm energy kicks in in the morning & mixing up the daytime timing can help. I find it also more powerful if I drink & move a bit- do a flight of stairs before returning to desk, for example. *I have narcolepsy & weaned myself off meds using caffeine from coffee & green tea capsules.

I think it gives but only if you are intaking another energy sources along with it like healthy foods. Coffee is more like a kickstart so you fell more awake (personally I drink decaf.)
