What Happens To Your Body When You Stop Drinking Coffee | Science Explained In this Science Explained video, we explore what happens to your body when you stop drinking coffee and how caffeine withdrawal affects the brain, metabolism, and nervous system. This video breaks down the science behind caffeine dependence and the physiological changes that occur when coffee is removed from your daily routine. Caffeine directly influences adenosine signaling, stress hormones, blood pressure, and energy regulation. When you stop drinking coffee, your body begins to rebalance these systems. We explain why headaches, fatigue, and mood changes may appear in the first days, and how sleep quality, hydration, and nervous system stability can improve over time. Discover: • How caffeine affects the brain and nervous system • What happens during caffeine withdrawal • Why headaches and fatigue occur after quitting coffee • Changes in sleep quality and energy regulation • How stopping coffee affects stress hormones and blood pressure • What science says about long-term caffeine reduction Understanding how coffee and caffeine affect your body can help you make informed decisions about consumption and overall health. 📚 Sources: Griffiths, R.R., Juliano, L.M., & Chait, L.D.
