I really need to find some good 0% drinks. I love most alcoholic beverages for more than their ABV (and usually when I drink I wish I wasn’t slowly getting drunk) but I’m yet to find good 0% options for most drinks. I’ve had a single good 0% light beer and that’s it. Every whiskey, rum, dark beer I’ve tried 0% has been genuinely bad. If grape juice counts for wine then I love that too but that’s it. I need to explore more though.

Is caffeine, the drug famous for being a thing that helps you stay awake, a problem for some people when they'd like to go to sleep? Yes. Yes it is.

There is a specific genetic difference in how caffeine is cleaned up in people. Some people are rate limited by the ambirnt CYP1A2 in their system, and others produce more to meet the demand in response to caffeine.

For the caffeine sensitive there is like a 5 hour half life for caffeine in their system.

Hi,

You have ADHD or a similar condition in which stimulants are processed differently than in neurotypical brains.

Love, Some guy online

Some people can't have caffeine in the afternoon because it gives them insomnia. Quite a few people I've worked with have told me that they had to stop drinking coffee in the afternoons once they hit their 40s.

I think I have the same issue with coffee if I drink it fast, but I usually drink it ridiculously slowly over the span of 30min, and then I enjoy it a lot more

Caffeine has nothing to do with when you can drink it.

I mean, that's just not true.

There have been numerous studies that had conclusively proven caffeine, when taken close to bed, measurably worsens sleep quality. Yes, even when the participants claimed they had no trouble getting asleep.
