To put it another way, caffeine keeps the doors shut while the brain's natural stimulators, exciters, and alerters, perform their symphony, and do it intensely thanks to our favorite stimulant.Ĭaffeine also prevents dopamine from getting reabsorbed into your system, leaving the feel-good chemical hanging around in your brain longer. Around 30 minutes after drinking our grande matcha latte, this chemical cacophony gives the anticipated euphoric shock.
While this can be helpful when running away from something or defending ourselves in a fight, it’s ineffective in sensitive situations, such as negotiating in a meeting or responding to a text. Adrenaline tells us whether to stay and face a dangerous situation or to run away.ĭuring this excited state, we become irritable, agitated, and significantly more emotionally charged. The “fight or flight” reaction is triggered by this hormone. The pituitary gland then instructs the adrenal glands, located above the kidneys, that there is a problem. This is why many people drink coffee when they go on long drives.Ĭaffeine stimulates our brain cells, signaling the pituitary gland, our hormone control center, that there is a problem. Caffeine makes you more attentive, less bored, and improves your mood by preventing the relaxing effects of adenosine. The same adenosine-blocking effect that makes you feel more alert is also responsible for this. That also explains why it’s hard to stop drinking coffee since you get tired easier, because having more adenosine receptors means more adenosine makes its way into your brain.Ĭaffeine is a central nervous system stimulant that improves your mood as well as boosts your alertness. Eventually, adenosine catches on to caffeine's antics and creates new receptors for the sleep-inducing chemical to latch onto.Īs a result, your morning cup of coffee may become two, since the more receptors you have, the more caffeine you'll need to block them. Caffeine effectively blocks the receptors - in other words, it "antagonizes" the activity of adenosine, making us feel more alert and awake. When we drink coffee, caffeine mimics adenosine and attaches to adenosine receptors in the brain.
Caffeine is the most widely used mind-altering substance in the world, and we all love it, whether it’s in the form of coffee, tea, or Coke! But why? What does caffeine do to our brain to make us feel so awake? Well, although it's not entirely understood how caffeine produces its well-known stimulant effects, most of those effects are due to its action as an antagonist at adenosine receptors.Ĭaffeine is structurally similar to adenosine, a chemical that makes us sleepy.
