When I wake up in the morning the first thing I go for is a kiss from my wife and then my cup of coffee.. Of course after brushing me teeth..

According to new research that none of us asked for, they claim that you should wait at least an hour before consuming your morning coffee.

Fox News reports, “This is because in the hour after you wake up, your body’s production of cortisol is at one of its three daily peaks, according to researchers who published a small but intriguing clinical study.”

Cortisol, also known as the ‘stress hormone.’ keeps us alert and produces that ‘fight or flight’ response we need when we feel danger. The study tells us that we should just ride the cortisol ‘high’ for about an hour THEN have the coffee to maintain that level of clarity and focus.

Don’t drink coffee first thing in the morning (and other tips for a productive day). . . http://t.co/KVMkYSHMT8 via @qz

Study or no study, we don’t need this type of negativity in our lives..

PS.. I just finished me 4th cup of coffee and it was excellent!
