☕ Morning Coffee and Blood Pressure: What You Need to Know
Recently, my husband and I noticed our morning blood pressure readings were higher than usual… then we remembered we’d just had a strong black coffee on an empty stomach! Later that evening, after about 6 hours without caffeine, our readings were back to normal. ✅
