The Science of Success: This is what happens when you drink 787 Coffee
Coffee is an energy tool, its caffeine, its dopamine, its happiness, a true tool for your mind. Here's a quick look at the science behind how a cup of our specialty coffee helps you get into a focused, creative state of mind:
Energy and Focus: Caffeine works by blocking adenosine, a neurotransmitter that makes you feel tired. When adenosine is blocked, it allows your brain's natural stimulants to take over, which helps increase alertness, reaction time, and concentration. This means less brain fog and more time in the zone.
Memory Retention: Studies, including research from Johns Hopkins University, suggest that caffeine can help enhance long-term memory. It aids in the process of "pattern separation," allowing your brain to better distinguish and retain new information—perfect for studying and learning.
Mood & Motivation: Coffee also influences dopamine, a neurotransmitter linked to pleasure and motivation. A cup of coffee can increase dopamine levels, leading to a more positive and energized mood, which is essential for tackling long study sessions or complex tasks.
