Adenosine and Cortisol

Adenosine builds up while awake and is cleared during sleep, impacting how refreshed you feel in the morning. Instead of relying solely on caffeine to combat residual adenosine, spiking cortisol levels can effectively clear it out and enhance alertness. While cortisol is often viewed negatively, it plays a crucial role in boosting immune efficiency and focus when released at the right times.
