Young children routinely wake up at 6:00 A.M., pop out of bed, and are ready for their day. But as an adult, we are can be groggy or sluggish. However, most of us have discovered the benefits of coffee and caffeine. Caffeine is a mild stimulant that many people worry increases how fast you age. There is evidence suggesting that caffeine makes us older quicker, but there is also evidence showing it will keep us younger longer.

Caffeine has been shown to increase our ability to focus on monotonous tasks. It also can help us stay awake when we are reading or working. Also, it can help us exercise harder and longer. Caffeine provides us with a little boost of energy to help get through the day. Drinking it in moderation has shown little negative side effects, and may even keep us younger and smarter because it is a workout and study aid.

However, some research has come out that drinking caffeine in excess has some very negative side effects. First, many people say that coffee and caffeine are addictive, and trying to cut back or quit will give you withdrawals. It can leave us shaky and jittery. Also, some people say that caffeine induces chronic stress, which is a huge factor in terms of aging. Some say it also decreases mineral absorption, and when we get older we need those minerals to survive and fight the effects of aging. The key to drinking coffee is to simply drink it in moderation.
