Question

Describe how caffeine can affect your stress level. How does it affect your cardiorespiratory system? Include information about the hormone called adrenalin.

Answer 1

Caffeine and stress elevate cortisol. Large amounts of caffeine can have negative effects as in chronic stress. High levels of caffeine can lead to caffeine-induced anxiety, nervousness, and jitteriness. Caffeine can raise your heart rate and cause palpitations. Large amounts of caffeine for a long amount of time can increase your risk of having a heart attack.

Caffeine makes your airways bigger because it is a bronchodilator, this makes it easier for air to move through the body. Caffeine can increase your breathing rate as well. Caffeine in high doses elevates epinephrine blood levels.

Epinephrine (aka adrenaline) can increase blood pressure, increase the contractility of the heart, and increases heart rate. Caffeine produces surges of adrenaline.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Coffee stimulates the adrenal glands, which means that every time you drink coffee, you're activating the body's fight-or-flight response. But, instead of releasing adrenaline so the body can react to a true stressor, the adrenals are releasing this hormone in response to your coffee consumption.
