    Wow, there are people, who drink 3-4 espressos a day…That would probably kill me:)) A half of a regular cup of coffee makes me sweaty, jittery, insomniac squirrel from Ice Age;))

    I wonder if tea affect sleep as well because there’s some amount of caffeine too right??

  16. Marilyn Schmidt

    September 2, 2020 at 10:34 pm

    Well then why doesn’t the world ban the coffee bean. Legalise marijuana. That garden weed doesn’t affect your sleep does it?

    The main takeaway from this is that you should drink alcohol in the morning before work, not in the evening after.

    & I can instantly sleep after alcohol.. more I take longer the sleep. Prove me wrong Mr. Who?

    September 3, 2020 at 8:58 am

    I quit coffee and alcohol and I stopped having chronic anxiety. And my sleep is way better. The transition took about six weeks for me, so it’s not instant results. I used to LOVE coffee, and now I rarely miss it.

    *_this vid is just a bunch of fancy words telling me not to drink coffee and not be an alcoholic when I become an adult huh_* -_-

  59. Izzy

    September 4, 2020 at 3:05 pm

    *_i tried not drinking caffeine , ended up spending most of my life sleeping and getting no work done, what u should also tell people while telling em to quit coffee is to quit sugar too , if they don’t lean on coffee to get going they’ll lean on unhealthy sugars and fats to get goin_*

  60. X Y

    September 4, 2020 at 3:48 pm

    According to Wikipedia half life of Caffeine is 2.5 – 5 hrs, not 5 – 6 hrs. Especially TED videos should put extra emphasis on having their facts straight.

  61. Francytj :D

    September 4, 2020 at 3:50 pm

    Ok so why does this happen to me? I don’t like coffee and I’m too young for alcohol anyway

  62. George Mathieson

    September 4, 2020 at 5:42 pm

    From my professional experience I can say that stress is the biggest problem here and not caffeine or alcohol. Naturally these two don’t make things easier

  65. HarDiMonPetit

    September 4, 2020 at 6:28 pm

    There would be a case for smoking as well… No good sleep for me after a cigar, for instance. But maybe this is obvious for anyone…

    Can you do a video about THC/CBD and sleep? Hear it often suggested as sleeping aid.

    September 4, 2020 at 8:28 pm

    So if I basically need to stop drinking coffee before or around 2pm for a decent sleep, what’s the cutoff for alcohol? That segments info was a little vaguer.

  70. Arnold Agrees

    September 4, 2020 at 10:14 pm

    Thank God I decided to cut off caffeine and alcohol a long time ago. Caffeine made me anxious and my heart pumping like crazy making me think I was going to have a heart attack EVERYDAY.

  71. Christopher Kling

    September 6, 2020 at 6:53 am

    I don’t drink coffee and alcohol. I don’t eat candy, chips, cake or anything with excess amounts of sugar and/or fat. I also don’t smoke or do drugs. Neither do I work out.

    I just get up early in the morning to learn Russian, then go to school and after that, watch YouTube.

    That probably sounds boring, but my future looks good, and my present is also pretty good.

    Well, I drink about 7 cups of coffee and/or tea per day with the last one either 5 or 7pm and seem to feel tired about 3 hours after waking, think I know why now. Time to cut back.

    September 7, 2020 at 2:42 pm

    Kind of a coincidence that I saw this. I quit caffeine about three weeks ago after a cup of Starbucks Nitro basically induced a panic attack. The first week without caffeine was ROUGH but once I made it over the hill I noticed I sleep way better, wake up feeling refreshed, no more “micro” headaches in the afternoon, and my energy levels are far more steady.

    If you say that a quarter of the caffeine you had earlier makes it harder for you to sleep, what say you to the people who drink caffeine and go right to sleep? It’s completely contradictory. It can’t make it hard and at the same time not affect you.

    “2PM in the evening”. I’m from the US and would hear that as an oxymoron, but maybe in the UK such an expression is correct

    Yep! I’m doing my darndest during nursing school to stay away from both caffeine and wine because they totally rob me of sleep! When I don’t drink either I wake up fine, but when I do drink them I wake up feeling so tired!

    How long does it take in average to get rid of the alcohol? Is it possible to eat dinner at 6 pm with a Glas of wine and the alcohol makes no trouble during sleep? If it’s already too close to the night, wich time would be better?

In a part of the United States with more than 17,000 years of human history, cultural preservation advocate Tracie Revis is working to turn the Ocmulgee Mounds into Georgia’s first national park and preserve. This park would be co-managed by the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, bringing the tribal voice back to an area they were forcibly removed from 200 years ago. Revis explores the complex feelings of caring for this land and shows how it’s fostering healing in return.
