#11: Coffee vs Tea: The Brain Chemistry You NEED to Know
This episode of the Manolo Podcast dives into what coffee and tea actually do to your brain. We break down the science behind caffeine, how it blocks adenosine to keep you awake and how it triggers a stress response. Coffee hits hard and fast with a big caffeine punch, which is great for a quick boost but can leave you jittery or crashing, especially if your body metabolizes caffeine slowly. Tea, on the other hand, has L-theanine and catechins, giving you a smoother, longer lasting focus along with some extra health perks. We also talk about stacking caffeine with L-theanine for maximum brain power, the long term effects on your body, and why caffeine can be addictive. Plus, I give practical tips on when and how to drink coffee and tea to get the most out of them and why knowing your own genetics can actually make a difference.
