Coffee is consumed daily by 83% of American adults. Most drink it first thing in the morning, but according to science that’s not the best time for joe.

Hormones in your body ebb and flow through the day. From 8am to 9am, cortisol, the stress and alertness hormone is at a high point. Other high times are 12-1pm, and 5:30-6:30. So if you consume coffee during those times, you won’t get the maximum effect of caffeine. According to NeuroScienceDC, the best time to drink coffee is actually between 9:30am-11:30am.
