☕Is Coffee Or Caffeine Bad For Blood Flow Circulation? (2024)

"YES, I Want Healthy Blood Flow"

Caffeine is probably the most used or even abused drug in the world. Yes, it’s a drug.

What’s crazy is that in 2024 about 90% of Americans consume caffeine on a daily basis.

Coffee consumption is about 40% of the world’s population. And much higher in the US, at about 70%.

The point is, that most of us have a bunch of caffeine running through our veins.

How Does Caffeine Affect Your Blood Flow?

Caffeine and caffeine products can negatively affect your circulation.

  • It acts as a vasoconstrictor and constricts blood vessels, thus – can decrease blood flow.
  • Caffeine has been shown to make arteries stiff which contributes to coronary artery disease or hardening of the arteries.
  • It also increases blood pressure levels because it blocks hormones your body produces to keep your arteries wide open.
  • Caffeine is a stimulant, it increases adrenaline, as well as stress hormones such as cortisol. This “fight or flight” mechanism further restricts blood flow.
  • It also causes anxiety, which again indirectly decreases blood flow due to negative changes in neurotransmitters.
  • Caffeine has a long half-life and it negatively affects sleep. Poor sleep quality and quantity further increase stress hormones, as well as blood pressure and blood sugar levels, and yes, these all decrease circulation
