are Asians immune to caffeine or something? I've seen scenes in multiple manga where characters are drinking tea or coffee at nighttime. and picrel looks like it was taken at night and presumably about to be consumed. i know that people with adhd specifically actually get tired from caffeine, but I've seen this a lot of times.
>>22043117i have ADHD and caffeine sometimes makes me tired but other times it really gets me going. i can drink coffee at midnight and still go to sleep okay.asian canned coffee doesnt generally have much caffeine though, most of it is 50%+ milk and sugar
>>22043122>asian canned coffee doesnt generally have much caffeine though, most of it is 50%+ milk and sugarthat's why it tastes so nasty though. shelf stable canned milk always has that fucked up burnt taste to it.
>>22043117there is a thing with adhd and other mentals where caffeine chills them out but there are also people who are effectively immune. it takes a gallon of coffee before i notice anything. ive quit cold turkey and not noticed anything. but it smells nice and has no calories so i keep coming back
>>22043117it's tolerance. i remember my first job i was typically drinking 4 cups of coffee + red bull at 5:30pm on the way to the gym and was always soundly in bed by 10pm. nowadays i drink one cup of coffee and i won't be able to sleep until like 5am
>>22043122>>22043138>>22043158for me when i drink green tea at night or late in the afternoon i can't sleep until the morning but a lot of times when i drank it in the morning if i was at home that day i ended up falling asleep shortly after. it's weird
>>22043117>>22043122I have ADHD and if I drink caffine after 5pm I will not get any sleep. Although I have chronic insomnia regardless
Those drinks are low in caffeine and they taste gross. I don't understand the obsession with those Japanese vending machines.
>>22043117>I've seen scenes in multiple mangaSo? Where else is reality represented in your gay little china comics?
>>22043117Every old person I know drinks coffee all fuckin day and sleeps fine. Maybe you're just gay
>>22043117It might just tolerance up to a point. I don't think they actually sleep well though, they might be in bed but not sleeping.
>>22043117surprised no one has mentioned it but somewhere around 10% of the global population is caffeine-hyposensitive and just straight up basically don't feel it, and another 50% of the entire global population has the CYP1A2 gene allowing them to metabolize is extremely quickly (~2-3x faster than baseline without the gene)i am personally hyposensitive and can drink 1-2 grams of caffeine (12-24 cups of drip coffee/2 full pots) and not get noticeable side effectsi stopped doing that for my hearts sake now that i'm on medication, but was always interesting that i just can't relate to people getting the jitters or anxiety and whatnot from caffeine intake, have never felt it
>>22043117>>22043122>B vitamin sucking the same one(s) ADD are low onLonger tea drinking adaptation presumably. Anecdotally, know a few Asians that jade no issue with getting wired off post-dinner coffee.
>>22043138Coffee makes me poop
>>22044591so does your face to me
>>22044593You're welcome
>>22044724Not really. I make fun of you all day long loser.
>>22044729>Not really. I make fun of you all day long loser.Weird. I comment here only a few times a week. I guess I live rent free in your tiny, retard, boy-loving brain.
>>22043117Its the trade off they got in exchange for dying from the common cold
Part Asian, mostly white. I had a weak tea around 7pm the other day and couldn't get to sleep until 2 in the morning but my grandmother would have, like, eight bowls of tea in a day and sleep like a very winked baby. Either it depends person to person or my Alpine genes completely undid the Mongol ones.
>>22043117Japanese guy here. It's usually because we're either studying late / working late so I guess our tolerance is higher. Naturally, our culture of having tea on hand at meals probably doesn't help. Things like barley tea for summer, coffee for whenever, etc. I drink caffeinated drinks even if it makes me sleepy because I just need the extra boost while studying overnight.
