Is Coffee on an Empty Stomach Bad for Your Hormones?

5 months ago
  • Coffee is more than caffeine—it impacts cortisol, blood sugar, insulin sensitivity, and your nervous system.
  • Drinking coffee on an empty stomach can spike stress hormones, adrenaline, and cause digestive issues.
  • Pair coffee with fats, protein, or L-theanine for smooth energy, stable blood sugar, and less anxiety.
