Why do coffee drinkers feel more clear headed after consuming caffeine? Why do some get a headache without it? Does caffeine cause any permanent brain changes and can the brain go back to ‘normal’ after years of caffeine use?
In: Biology
Contrary to popular belief, the most widespread drug addiction is caffeine, the chemical in coffee, energy drinks, tea, ect. People feel “better” after consuming because it gives them a fix for their addiction. Vice versa if they do not get their “fix” it can cause withdraw symptoms, like headaches. It does not cause permanent brain damage and after the withdrawal and detox, just like any other addiction, the brain will return back to normal.
