I love my caffeine, fact. It makes me feel good and gives me a great boost when I’m starting to flag. As I’m not a great morning person either, I would be unbearable if I didn’t have my cup of coffee to make me feel human in the mornings!

I have to have drinks containing caffeine throughout the day to keep me motivated and able to concentrate. Those big jobs that I’ve stayed late to complete on time should have ‘caffeine’ mentioned in the credits, as I couldn’t have done them without it!

Resisting caffeine late at night is the hardest part. There’s nothing quite like a coffee to round off a meal in a restaurant, and this is the hardest one for me to say no to.

Apparently, I have to fight my urge for caffeine if I want to sleep at night. The later in the day you drink caffeine, the later it’ll be before you can go to sleep, etc etc.

The experts have told us that caffeine will be in your system up to 10 hours after you last consume it. If this information is correct, we shouldn’t be drinking any caffeine any later than the afternoon. Everyone is different obviously, but this is the average time that they go off.

If you use sugar in your drinks, you will lose not only your caffeine boost but also your sugar rush; resulting in a crash. You may be able to sleep if you do this.

As we are all different, we have really have to work out for ourselves where our cut off point is. This is easily done by having a drink a bit later every day.

Make sure you do this carefully though in stages. Don’t jump straight to having your last coffee at 8pm. If this keeps you up all night you will have to drink it all the next day just to stay awake.
