Shocking simulation shows everything that happens to your body when you stop drinking coffee

This is what happens when your body goes into withdrawal

We all know what it’s like when we first get out of bed in the morning and are in desperate need of a cup of coffee to help us out of the door.

It’s an energy boost many of us rely on to get us through the day but what happens to our bodies when we stop drinking coffee?

Well, one shocking simulation reveals everything that happens when we deprive our bodies of caffeine.

Posted to YouTube by The Infographics Show, the video sheds some light on the science behind it.

The clip explains: “So basically, the caffeine in coffee is tricking your body into producing chemicals that make you happy and more alert.

“This feeling is a good one, and therefore your body doesn’t want to give it up easily.”

It goes on to add: “Besides increasing the concentration of dopamine in your body to make you feel happy, caffeine also tricks the brain into thinking there is an emergency, which some scientists think may cause adrenaline to be released.

“This is another reason why coffee makes you feel so awake.”

So what happens when you stop drinking coffee? Well, the ‘highest caffeine levels your body will experience occur about an hour after you finish your cup of coffee,’ says the video, but ‘from then on, it will be all downhill’.

It goes on to say: “After about an hour, your body slowly starts to use up all of the caffeine that is circulating through your bloodstream.”

According to a study conducted in Psychopharmacology, that consisted of a compilation of 170 years of research, ‘the symptoms of caffeine withdrawals can start as early as 12 hours after your last cup of coffee’.

Symptoms you may notice when you stop drinking coffee include being more irritable which is due to an ‘imbalance of hormones’.

You may also experience a lack of energy and anxiety.

The video goes on to explain: “You could end up feeling a lack of productivity for the entire week.

“Luckily there is also good news. In several research studies it was found that after people got over their caffeine withdrawal, their productivity exceeded what it was before.

“This is because caffeine may give someone more focus when consumed daily, but it is artificial.

“When the body is allowed to operate at optimum levels without the aid of an outside drug, you can be more productive for longer periods of time.”
