I always wondered why coffee and cigarettes go together:
After drinking a cup of coffee, the caffeine will have reached all your body tissues in 5 minutes and will reach its highest level in 30 to 60 minutes – that’s when you’ll feel its effect the strongest. After about 3 -6 hours, you will have eliminated 50% of the caffeine. However active levels of caffeine will still be in your body for 10 – 15 hours after. That should give you an idea of how long before bedtime you should have your last cuppa’ joe. (Heavy smokers get rid of the caffeine twice as fast. Which also explains why they need to take in twice the amount of caffeine to feel the same effects as non-smokers.)
