✅ Withdrawal lasts 4-6 weeks as your body rebalances
✅ Taper off gradually: normal → half-caf → decaf
✅ Morning sunlight + high-intensity cardio accelerate recovery
✅ You can still enjoy the ritual with decaf coffee
RESOURCES MENTIONED
BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor)
Adenosine receptors and sleep pressure
Zone 5 cardio training
