InstalabPhysician-backed insights to optimize your health and reduce long-term risks.
Caffeine isn’t just about alertness. New research reveals its surprising effects on brain health, insulin sensitivity, cancer risk, and all-cause mortality. But the benefits depend on how much and when you consume it and your unique biology.
Why does caffeine help some people feel sharp and focused while others feel anxious or wired? Your response may depend on three genes, CYP1A2, AHR, and ADORA2A, that regulate how you metabolize and react to caffeine. Understanding your caffeine genetics may help you optimize performance, reduce side effects, and even lower your cardiovascular risk.
