What is caffeine?

Caffeine is a natural alkaloid compound that stimulates the central nervous system. It helps people feel alert, focused, and temporarily reduces fatigue. In nature, caffeine is found in over 60 plant species, with the most common being coffee beans, tea leaves, cocoa beans, and kola nuts.

Chemically, caffeine is a water-soluble compound with a mild bitter taste and is rapidly absorbed by the body within 15–30 minutes after consumption.

The caffeine content varies depending on the type of beverage. Coffee typically contains the highest amount, followed by tea and cacao.

How does caffeine work in the body?

Caffeine acts by inhibiting the activity of adenoids. This is a neurotransmitter that causes drowsiness and relaxation. When adenosine is blocked, the brain becomes more awake, more focused and more responsive.

After absorption, caffeine is converted by the liver into compounds that can affect energy and metabolism. The average effect lasts for 3-6 hours, depending on everyone's foundation and caffeine use habits.

Factors such as age, sex, weight, frequency of use or liver condition will affect the conversion rate of caffeine.
