    Can you Handle the Truth About Health, Caffeine, and the Lies We've Normalized?
    Jan 21 2026
    Caffeine doesn’t just “wake you up.” It can quietly push your nervous system into wired-but-tired, disrupt deep sleep, spike stress hormones, and keep you stuck in a crave → crash loop—without you realizing caffeine is the driver.

    In Episode 1 of Can You Handle the Truth?, Steve Frazier breaks down the biology of caffeine in a clear, practical way—so you can recognize what’s happening in your body and make informed choices (no shame, just truth).

    In this episode, you’ll learn:
    ☕ How caffeine blocks adenosine (your brain’s sleep-pressure signal)
    ⚡ Why adrenaline + cortisol spikes can mimic anxiety and “stress”
    🩸 How caffeine can trigger blood sugar swings and energy crashes
    🌙 Why your sleep quality can suffer even if you “sleep fine”
    🧠 How dopamine reinforces the habit (and why cravings feel so strong)
    👩‍🦰 Why caffeine can affect women differently across the menstrual cycle
    🤰 What research suggests about caffeine exposure during pregnancy
    ❤️ The possible link between caffeine and heart palpitations/PVCs
    🔁 How to spot the rinse-and-repeat pattern that keeps you dependent
