I’d like to show you how to neutralize

the bad effects from caffeine now I am

going to go through the positives of

consuming caffeine and I’m talking

mainly about coffee and tea not sodas

and also some of the cons some of the

negatives okay and there are negatives

and I will say that coffee is very very

addicting and I’ll be the first to admit

that I am addicted to coffee and I am

not going to give it up now I can still

control the amount of coffee I drink I

just have two shots of espresso every

morning okay with a little cream and one

packet of Xylitol I don’t do any more

than that and even though there are some

negative things I’m going to show you

what to do to get rid of those negative

things but there is also some positive

things too if you don’t consume too much

now there’s some very interesting things

about the caffeine in coffee okay people

think that it gives them energy right

well there’s no energy in coffee that

you’re going to get when you drink it

it basically manipulates certain

chemicals that are already in your body

and one of the chemicals that caffeine

affects is adenosine that’s a certain

chemical in the body that does a lot of

different things

um it’s part of the ATP the energy

source of your body adenosine

transphosphate it’s also makes up your

DNA but it has another function of

helping you sleep and so this chemical

compound caffeine mimics or looks very

very close to

adenosine and so what happens is

caffeine acts like a key and goes into

the receptors for adenosine okay and it

locks it up it blocks it so if someone

sticks some key that doesn’t quite fit

into a lock and then it’s jammed you

can’t open that door so now adenosine

doesn’t really work to a certain degree

and so now you don’t get asleepy okay so

that’s one effect of caffeine it gets

rid of this compound that makes you

sleepy but for me when I drink coffee it

become very creative I have better

cognitive skills sharper I have better

ideas things like that and that is

because caffeine stimulates another

compound called

acetylcholine acetylcholine is necessary

for the central nervous system for

different things in the brain and it’s

considered a neurotransmitter because it

helps messages travel through the brain

and so it’s related to feeling awake

helping with your attention memory every

learning

cognitive function and then the third

thing that caffeine does is it increases

nor adrenaline that is the

neurotransmitter that is triggered when

you’re awake and so serotonin melatonin

helps you with sleep but no adrenaline

keeps you awake and caffeine stimulates

your adrenaline and noradrenaline is

also involved in keeping you focused as

well as learning and has some very

similar things to acetylcholine so

that’s what capping does okay now let’s

first talk about the the good things

about caffeine what it can do for you

number one it can help lower the risk of

dementia okay that’s pretty cool it can

help you with gallstones it can help you

with the fatty liver it can help you

decrease

fibrosis within the liver it can even

help lower liver enzymes adding fat to

your coffee in the morning can help you

fast for a longer period of time which

can help you get into the keto adapted

State and of course drinking coffee can

help you with these

temporary cognitive benefits right

because for me it probably lasts several

hours and then it’s like it’s over but

of course in the past in college I would

keep drinking coffee to the entire day I

mean I would drink pots and pots of

coffee and that was a very bad thing but

at first I could handle it but then I

couldn’t handle it now the cons or the

negatives of caffeine okay are this it

can increase blood pressure it can

increase cholesterol

it has a potential to cause insomnia it

can increase cortisol it can also

increase adrenaline you know and maybe a

little bit is okay but if you overdo it

that can kind of affect your adrenals it

can give you uh anxiety it can give you

depression as a side effect it can

actually make you tired it can cause

arrhythmias it can give you a headache

it can give you a panic attack it can

cause mood swings it can give you neck

tension okay jaw tightness as well as

grinding your teeth at night it can also

cause a B1 deficiency which can cause

more nervous tension or stress and it

can also act as a diuretic okay you can

lose electrolytes as well now a lot of

these negative effects occur more with

people

who have kind of a genetic variation

with the detoxification of caffeine now

if you’re watching this and you have a

problem with drinking too much coffee or

just being exposed to too much caffeine

you already know you have a problem with

it okay and so this video can help you

but that being said if you don’t have a

problem with coffee I’m going to give

you some things to do to kind of help

detoxify this caffeine from your liver

more thoroughly but if you have a

genetic variant to this enzyme that is

supposed to help you detoxify caffeine

this could lower your ability to get rid

of caffeine by 40x okay and so caffeine

just stays in your body longer and

creates more damage but not only

caffeine estrogen

smoking drugs medications so in general

these toxins stay in your body longer so

again what I’m going to tell you will

not only help you clear out of caffeine

but will also help you clear out some of

these other poisons as well so the first

tip I’m going to give you is just to

lessen your exposure to caffeine okay

and coffee and whenever else caffeine is

in like tea chocolate things like that

and of course soft drinks is a given so

that’s one thing I did I just have one

cup which two shots of espresso in the

morning that’s it I don’t consume any

more than that and that can actually

help you and also the obvious thing is

to minimize the exposure to like I said

the drugs the estrogen the chemicals

ETC number two exercise that can greatly

help you as well the more heavy exercise

you do the more you can get rid of these

toxins okay so that’s number two number

three and if you guess cruciferous you

are correct like broccoli broccoli

Sprouts

cauliflower

radish arugula now two of the foods that

will also help someone detoxify caffeine

is celery and parsley so if you include

that in your diet that would be a very

good thing and the last thing that is

just the super Powerhouse of

detoxification is curcumin and that

would be in turmeric so if you’re

suffering from the negative things from

coffee or caffeine I just gave you

several things to do to help minimize

the damage now since we’re on the topic

of coffee if you have not seen my video

that’s been a very popular one I put it
