Tag: How to get rid of caffeine

According to the FDA, caffeine's half-life—the time it takes for your body to eliminate half of the substance—is between four and six hours. This means that long after your initial energy boost, a significant amount of caffeine still remains in your system, affecting your alertness and sleep quality.

Over 90% of caffeine is metabolized by the liver's CYP1A2 enzyme in a process that takes several hours, not by water intake. Therefore, while staying hydrated is crucial for your overall well-being, drinking water does not directly release caffeine from your system or significantly accelerate its elimination.
