A genome sequence shows I'm a slow metaboliser (I expect more will show up with more research).
I feel terrific now.
I need to cap at 2 espressos per day before noon at most, or I start suffering side effects like poor sleep quality. People really need to reframe their coffee consumption from food to drug and understand their own usage and effects of said drug.
I strongly recommend Barleycup as an alternative morning cuppa.
Alternatively, you might be prone to migraines, and thus are sensitive to headaches of all kinds. That's me, I truly hope that's not you (wouldn't wish that upon anyone).
The headaches are reliably cured within maybe 20-40 minutes by application of more caffeine, so I don't think they are migraines.
