This Is How Caffeine Affects Sleep and Productivity: Matthew Walker | Bitesize

Today’s guest is world-leading sleep researcher, author of the international best-selling book ‘Why We Sleep’ and Professor of Neuroscience and Psychology, Matthew Walker.

Matthew shares research on the effects of caffeine on our sleep.

Caffeine is a sleep disruptor, and just one dose of caffeine in the evening can decrease the amount of deep sleep by 20%

Caffeine has a half-life of around 6-7 hours, but a quarter-life of around 12 hours. If you have a cup of coffee at noon, a quarter of that caffeine can still be circulating around your brain at midnight.

We often don’t think about the implications of our caffeine consumption - but consuming our caffeine before noon, or switching to decaffeinated drinks, could have benefits for the quality of our sleep.
