If you're holding a cup of coffee or tea right now, here's a small piece of encouraging news. A large study published in the journal JAMA suggests that people who drink two to three cups of caffeinated coffee or tea a day have about a 15-20 percent lower risk of developing dementia compared to people who avoid these drinks altogether. The researchers analysed data from more than 130,000 men and women followed for up to 43 years as part of two major US health studies. Participants regularly reported what they ate and drank, whether they developed dementia, and how their cognitive abilities changed over time. The people who drank the most caffeinated coffee or tea had an 18 percent lower risk of dementia compared to those who drank little or none. The benefit seemed to plateau at around two to three cups of coffee or one to two cups of tea per day. Decaf coffee showed no clear link to reduced dementia risk. Regular caffeine drinkers also reported slightly less cognitive decline and performed a bit better on some objective brain function tests. Now we have to remember there may be other factors. It's possible that people who drink tea and coffee differ in other ways, maybe they're more socially engaged, more active, or have different sleep patterns. For example, people with poor sleep (which is linked to higher dementia risk) might avoid caffeine which could skew the results. There are plausible biological reasons for the link. Tea and coffee contain caffeine and polyphenols, which may: Improve blood vessel health Reduce inflammation Lower oxidative stress (damage caused by free radicals) Improve metabolic health Caffeine is also associated with lower rates of type 2 diabetes, which is itself a risk factor for dementia. But caffeine isn't purely good. In some people it raises blood pressure, and high blood pressure is a major driver of dementia risk so more isn't better. Experts estimate that up to half of dementia cases worldwide could potentially be prevented or delayed by addressing known risk factors like high blood pressure, smoking, obesity, hearing loss, poor sleep, and lack of exercise. So while your morning coffee might be part of a healthy pattern, it's not a magic shield. The real protective factors are the familiar ones: regular exercise, balanced nutrition, good sleep, social connection, and mental stimulation. If anything, this research offers gentle reassurance. If you enjoy your daily coffee or tea, there's no strong evidence here that you need to give it up for brain health and there may even be a modest benefit.

Coffee is comforting. Familiar. For many of us, it's the unofficial start button for the day. But have you ever paused to wonder whether your daily caffeine habit is truly supporting your health—or simply helping you push through exhaustion? In this episode, we take an honest, balanced look at caffeine from a Christian, whole-person perspective. We'll talk about the potential benefits, the possible downsides, and how caffeine can affect sleep, stress, mood, and even our sense of freedom. This conversation is for Christian women who want to care for their bodies with wisdom and discernment. The goal isn't to shame coffee drinkers or create fear—it's to help you slow down, think clearly, and consider what's best for your body and season of life. What Caffeine Really Is Caffeine is often treated as harmless and normal, but it's technically considered a stimulant that affects the nervous system. It naturally occurs in coffee beans, tea leaves, and cacao, and it's also manufactured and added to many processed foods and drinks. Most of us think of caffeine as something found only in coffee or soda. But it also shows up in places like: Energy drinks Pain relievers Chocolate and candy Certain gums and mints Even some personal care products In the United States, the majority of adults consume caffeine every day, often without giving it much thought. The Helpful Side of Caffeine Caffeine isn't automatically “bad.” Used in reasonable amounts, it can offer real benefits, such as: Feeling more awake and alert Sharper reaction time Short-term mental focus Extra stamina for certain tasks Occasional support with pain relief For some women, a cup of coffee is simply enjoyable and fits well into a healthy lifestyle. The concern isn't caffeine itself. The concern is how easily it can become a crutch instead of a choice. The Possible Downsides What gives you energy in the morning can also interfere with your body in ways you might not notice right away. Regular caffeine use has been linked with things like: Trouble falling or staying asleep Higher stress and anxiety levels Changes in heart rate and blood pressure Feeling wired but tired Increased irritability Negative effects for sensitive individuals One of the biggest traps is the cycle many women get stuck in: Not enough sleep → more caffeine → worse sleep → even more caffeine. Over time, caffeine can become both the thing you rely on for energy and the very thing stealing your rest. Dependence Is More Common Than We Realize Most people don't think of caffeine as something you can be dependent on. But many experience real physical effects when they stop using it. Common symptoms after cutting back include: Headaches Low energy Difficulty focusing Mood changes Feeling achy or “off” Because these feelings are uncomfortable, it's easy to reach for more coffee just to avoid them. That's how a simple habit can slowly turn into something we feel controlled by. A Faith-Centered Lens on Coffee and Caffeine As Christian women, we're invited to live with freedom and wisdom in every area of life—including our daily habits. Scripture offers this gentle reminder: “All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful… I will not be dominated by anything.” – 1 Corinthians 6:12 Coffee may be permissible. Caffeine may be socially normal. But a better question is: Is it truly helpful for you right now? If you feel like you can't function without caffeine, or you're using it to ignore exhaustion instead of listening to your body, that may be worth bringing before the Lord. Your body was designed for rhythms of rest and restoration. Stimulants can't replace what real sleep and peace provide. Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 – An honest conversation about America's favorite legal drug 01:00 – Understanding what caffeine actually is 02:00 – Surprising places caffeine can be found 03:20 – How caffeine can create a sleep cycle problem 03:45 – Possible benefits of moderate caffeine use 04:10 – Potential effects on the heart and stress levels 05:00 – Special concerns for pregnancy, breastfeeding, and children 07:20 – How caffeine withdrawal can show up 09:40 – Why caffeine often masks deeper fatigue 10:15 – A biblical perspective on being mastered by habits 11:10 – Ways to evaluate your own caffeine use Key Takeaways Caffeine can be useful—but it can also quietly interfere with sleep and stress. Many people rely on caffeine more than they realize. More coffee isn't always the answer to low energy. Each woman's body responds differently—discernment matters. Faith invites us to care for our bodies with intention, not autopilot. Instead of asking, “Am I allowed to drink coffee?” consider asking: “Is this helping me thrive—or just helping me keep going when I need rest?” If this episode made you pause and think about your own habits—whether with caffeine, sleep, stress, or energy—you don't have to sort it all out alone. I offer one-on-one Health Clarity Sessions where we slow everything down and talk through what's really going on in your life and your body.

Dr. Aileen Marty, Infectious Disease Specialist and Professor at Florida International University, joins Bob Sirott to talk about the latest health news. Dr. Marty discusses a study about caffeine and the benefits of it, as well as why the FDA refused to accept Moderna’s application for a new flu vaccine.
The health and fitness space is changing fast—and not all of it is for the better. In this episode of The Fitness League Podcast, Josh, Alessandra, and Joelle break down the rising popularity of GLP-1 medications, the explosion of peptide marketing, and the growing influence of social media on how people make health decisions. We talk honestly about what these tools can and can't do, why quick fixes are being sold as long-term solutions, and how misinformation spreads when integrity takes a back seat to engagement. This isn't about fear or shame—it's about becoming a smarter consumer in an industry that often profits from confusion. We also introduce and reinforce the L5 Method—training, nutrition, mindset, movement, and habits—as the foundation that no medication, supplement, or trend can replace. Along the way, we discuss caffeine use, community and environment, and why foundational health practices still matter most if your goal is sustainable progress. If you've felt overwhelmed by health trends, unsure who to trust, or curious about where modern medicine fits into a healthy lifestyle, this episode will help you zoom out, think critically, and refocus on what actually moves the needle.

In this episode, Dr. Greg Jones sits down with Dr. Sharon Hausman-Cohen, Chief Medical Officer of IntelliXX DNA, to explore how medical genomics is transforming the way we understand heart disease, brain health, inflammation, and metabolism. Most people think genetics stops at traits like eye color or ancestry. Genomics goes much deeper—analyzing how thousands of genes interact to influence cardiovascular risk, cognitive function, clotting tendencies, nutrient metabolism, and chronic inflammation.Dr. Hausman-Cohen explains why many direct-to-consumer DNA tests fall short, how incomplete interpretation can mislead patients, and why clinician-guided genomic analysis allows for truly personalized care. The conversation also dives into inflammation, methylation, homocysteine, cholesterol myths, caffeine metabolism, mitochondrial health, and women's unique clotting risks.Whether you're trying to reduce your risk of heart disease, improve mental clarity, or understand how your biology responds to diet, supplements, and medications—this episode offers a science-based roadmap for precision health.
In this episode of the Female Health Solution Podcast, I'm breaking down something I see all the time with the women we work with: the cortisol and caffeine energy rollercoaster. If you feel like you need coffee or energy drinks just to function, crash hard in the afternoon, or plan your day around your next caffeine hit, this conversation is for you. I explain why this pattern is common but not normal, how cortisol actually drives these highs and lows, and why relying on caffeine keeps your body stuck in a stress response. We talk about what cortisol really does in the body, how it impacts blood sugar, energy, sleep, and mood, and what simple shifts can help you create smoother, more reliable energy throughout the day without feeling tethered to caffeine. If you're ready to get off the rollercoaster and support your energy in a way that actually works with your body, I invite you to join our Free 5 Day Revive. It's designed to help you feel strong, steady, and energized with simple, actionable steps you can start right away. Listen in and let's get your energy working for you again.

Is your magnesium not working, even though you're taking it daily? Discover why magnesium is not working, how to choose the best type of magnesium, improve magnesium absorption, and avoid common magnesium supplement mistakes in this video. If you're taking magnesium for sleep and other benefits, yet you're still dealing with insomnia, fatigue, high blood pressure, heart palpitations, leg cramps, anxiety, and more, this is for you. Magnesium is one of the most important minerals in the body. It's involved in over 300 biochemical reactions and is vital for the following: • Heart rhythm• Healthy blood pressure levels• Sleep • Energy• Insulin • Nerve function • Mitochondrial functionHere are 8 common mistakes people make with magnesium, which could be the reason why your magnesium supplements are not working! 1. Thinking magnesium works by itself Magnesium and vitamin D are codependent. You need 4,000 to 10,000 IUs of vitamin D for magnesium to work properly in the body. If you don't have enough vitamin B6, potassium, or sodium, it may seem that your magnesium is not working. 2. Ignoring cell membrane damageMany people have damaged cell membranes due to the consumption of seed oils. You need healthy cell membranes for magnesium absorption. 3. Stress Stress shuts down digestion, lowers immunity, decreases blood flow to certain organs, and increases the demand for magnesium. Caffeine can also deplete magnesium.4. Taking the wrong type of magnesium Magnesium oxide is the most common form of magnesium in supplements, but it's the worst! Magnesium glycinate is a much better option and is the most absorbable. 5. Blocking magnesium absorption without knowingToo much calcium can block the absorption of magnesium. Zinc, fluoride, and aluminum can inhibit its function. Low stomach acid, antacids, and acid blockers can also interfere with magnesium absorption. 6. Misunderstanding RDAsRDAs do not represent a therapeutic dose. If you're trying to correct a magnesium deficiency, you need significantly more magnesium than the RDA. If you want to increase your magnesium intake, spread your doses throughout the day, as you can only absorb around 300 to 400 mg at once.7. Unrealistic expectations Vitamins and minerals do not work like drugs. It can sometimes take a while to restore healthy biochemistry in the body. 8. Missing the insulin connection Insulin resistance can block magnesium absorption, and consequently, a magnesium deficiency can increase your risk of insulin resistance.

Most of us know caffeine. I love coffee and I still drink 1–2 cups most days. But if you've ever felt jittery, anxious, crashed hard, or noticed your sleep gets wrecked when you use caffeine the wrong way, you already know the downside.So I'm breaking down three compounds that I think every longevity and performance-minded person should understand: caffeine, theacrine (TeaCrine®), and paraxanthine.I'll explain how these work in plain English: adenosine blocking (why you feel less tired), how they influence dopamine (focus and motivation), and why caffeine can sometimes spike cortisol and adrenaline. Then we'll compare the real-world “feel” of each one: caffeine's punch, theacrine's smooth long-lasting energy with minimal tolerance, and paraxanthine as a cleaner, more precise “caffeine 2.0” option that clears faster.I'll also share exactly how I personally use them: coffee in the morning, paraxanthine in the afternoon when needed, and theacrine when I want energy without sacrificing sleep.If you want, I can also rewrite your intro and the final 60 seconds so the episode flows tighter (without changing your voice), and I can create a clean on-screen “dose + timing” slide you can reuse in future supplement videos.
The episode everyone has been waiting for is finally here.In this conversation, I sit down with Addison Andrix, Bethany's newly hired Coordinator of Confirmation, High School, and Young Adult Ministry.Addison shares his story and what brings him to Bethany Lutheran Church. Addison grew up Lutheran in Minnesota and stayed connected to church through high school. And as most college kids he drifted a bit before finding his way back and rediscovering a deeper relationship with God through prayer, rest, Scripture, and community. During this conversation we talk about:Growing up with faith as routine and stabilityHow ministry can quietly turn into a jobThe difference between religious participation and a relationship with GodWhy pray isn't magic, but it does reorient usGrace vs. performance (and why God isn't keeping score)What Sabbath can teach us about the freedom to stop pretending we're in controlWhy unconditional love is both central to faith and incredibly hard to live outThis conversation is more than meeting Addison, it's about grace, burnout, trust and learning to navigate faith in real life.
If caffeine suddenly makes you anxious, sugar cravings feel louder than ever, and alcohol disrupts your sleep more than it used to… you're not imagining it. In this Tea & Truth episode, Lynne breaks down what's really happening in midlife — and why everyday stimulants can feel so different during perimenopause and menopause. You'll learn how hormones, blood sugar, and the nervous system all play a role, plus gentle, realistic ways to support your body without extremes. Show Notes: In midlife, it can feel like your body has a new "volume setting." Coffee that once felt energizing now feels jittery. Sugar feels harder to manage. And alcohol can trigger 3am wake-ups, mood shifts, and restless sleep. In today's Tea & Truth, we're unpacking the real impact of caffeine, sugar, and alcohol in perimenopause and menopause — and the shared thread that connects all three: the nervous system. This is not a "cut everything out" episode. It's a compassionate, practical conversation designed to help you understand what your body is asking for now — and how to respond with steadier support. In this episode, we cover: Why caffeine can increase jitters, anxiety, and sleep disruption in midlife The blood sugar–hormone connection behind cravings and energy crashes Why alcohol can worsen sleep quality, inflammation, hot flashes, and next-day anxiety The "coffee to push, sugar to soothe, wine to unwind" pattern (and how to shift it gently) Simple, realistic ways to support your nervous system with steadiness instead of stimulation Free download for this episode: Midlife Stimulant Reset (1-page PDF)https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/vfpricme835xt7ova9h4r/Midlife-Stimulant-Reset.pdf Connect with Lynne: Imagine not having to "figure out midlife" on your own anymore.

Episode 3276: Dr. Neal Malik dispels the long-held myth that coffee and tea are dehydrating, explaining that these beverages actually contribute to daily fluid intake. Backed by research and meta-analyses, he highlights how regular, moderate consumption can support hydration and even offer protection against chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Quotes to ponder: "Coffee and tea intake actually count towards an individual's overall fluid intake for the day and do not increase the risk of dehydration." "The body does still absorb and use the majority of the liquid consumed via coffee and tea." "The more often coffee and tea are consumed, the less likely someone will experience dehydration."

Backed by research and meta-analyses, he highlights how regular, moderate consumption can support hydration and even offer protection against chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Quotes to ponder: "Coffee and tea intake actually count towards an individual's overall fluid intake for the day and do not increase the risk of dehydration." "The body does still absorb and use the majority of the liquid consumed via coffee and tea." "The more often coffee and tea are consumed, the less likely someone will experience dehydration."

Looking 4 Healing Radio with Dr. LeAnn Fritz – Energy isn't just about motivation or stamina. It's the fuel behind everything you do. Without it, even meaningful work and joyful experiences start to feel heavy. And while many people rely on sugar, caffeine, or energy drinks to push through, those are temporary stimulants—not solutions. They work just long enough to mask the problem, often followed by...
On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared shares a simple quarterly framework to help you actually follow through on health goals: Start, Stop, Keep. Adapted from a powerful business coaching tool, it becomes a practical way to evaluate what's working, what's draining you, and what single change could move you forward right now. Jared ties it to the “1% better” mindset from Atomic Habits—small daily choices that compound into massive long-term results—and gives real-world examples like setting a consistent bedtime, intermittent fasting, and quitting grazing. You'll also hear actionable “starts” (like walking after meals and tracking food/supplement effects) and “stops” (like late-day caffeine and doom scrolling). No hype—just a clean system you can repeat every quarter, month, or whatever works for you.Products:LiverVitatlityEndoCleanseVital 5:Ultimate Vitality MultiMagnesium BisglycinateOmega-3 + AntioxidantsPrecision Probiotic Vital SporesAssimil-8 Digestive EnzymesBack on TractAdditional Information:Atomic Habits by James Clear - bookThe Compound Effect by Darren Hardy - book#579: Fueling Your Day Right: How to Eat for Energy, Focus, and Weight Loss with Nate Palmer#604: Emotional Vitality: How to Break Out of Overwhelm and the Freeze Response#242: The Vital Five How To: Your User's Guide to Filling the Gaps in Your DietVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Episode 3268: Dr. Neal Malik breaks down the health risks of sugar-free energy drinks, pointing to concerns beyond just sugar, such as unregulated additives and potential links to heart and liver issues. He explains why switching to plain coffee is likely the safer, more beneficial choice for daily caffeine. Quotes to ponder: "Most health experts agree that the issue with energy drinks isn't necessarily their caffeine, but the amount of added sugar they contain as well as some of the other added ingredients." "Extra L-carnitine can increase a person's risk of developing cardiovascular disease." "Three to four cups of plain coffee consumed each day may protect against type 2 diabetes, colon cancer, liver cancer, Parkinson's disease, and even cardiovascular disease."

Legendary Life | Transform Your Body, Upgrade Your Health & Live Your Best Life
When it comes to longevity, most of the research feels clear around exercise and nutrition. We know how they affect aging and the prevention of the four diseases that kill most people: heart disease, cancer, metabolic disease, and dementia. But where do sleep, stress, and lifestyle actually fit into that picture? In Part 1 of the 2026 Body Blueprint, Ted explained why most men over 40 age faster than they should. In Part 2, he broke down why weight loss alone doesn't equal health. In Part 3, he showed how men should train to preserve muscle and strength with minimal time. In Part 4, he explained why cardio and cardiovascular fitness are essential for longevity—even if you already lift. In Part 5, he shared a clear, evidence-based approach to nutrition that supports metabolic health, longevity, and fat loss without quitting your social life or eliminating foods you enjoy. In Part 6, Ted turns to the most underestimated drivers of how you age: sleep, stress, and lifestyle. He explains why these factors are harder to quantify but just as powerful, how they quietly influence disease risk and recovery, and why ignoring them can undermine even the best training and nutrition plan. This episode puts the final pieces of the longevity puzzle into place. You'll learn: How poor sleep drives fat gain, insulin resistance, and hormonal decline The surprising link between sleep, pain sensitivity, and chronic injuries How chronic stress accelerates aging even in mentally tough high achievers Objective ways to measure stress using heart rate, HRV, and blood pressure The difference between managing stress symptoms vs. fixing root causes What Ted discusses in this episode: (00:00) Introduction (04:35) The Importance of Sleep for Longevity (08:42) Hormones and Sleep (16:42) Sleep Hygiene Tips (24:52) The Role of Caffeine and Alcohol in Sleep (29:35) Understanding and Managing Stress (30:08) Understanding Chronic Stress (30:42) The Importance of Recovery (32:07) Defining Stress and Its Effects (35:13) Tracking Stress with Biomarkers (40:08) Strategies for Managing Stress (47:05) The Power of Social Connections (53:12) Conclusion and Final Thoughts
