Finding Your "Just Right": From Caffeine Crashes to Paraxanthine and Sleeping Through Orthosomnia

The Beautifully Broken Podcast

In this solo episode, Freddie shares personal updates, including his experience managing two viral infections and testing out a fresh detox routine. He also dives into a promising new longevity drug and addresses his ongoing struggle with low HRV scores, which he’s been wrestling with for months. Freddie offers two simple but powerful life hacks that have helped him reclaim his nights and improve his well-being.

While data can play a crucial role in health optimization, Freddie explores the downside of letting it take over your life, such as orthosomnia—a condition where obsessing over sleep data can actually worsen sleep quality. He also breaks down the impact of regular caffeine consumption, which can lead to adrenal fatigue and other health issues. To counter this, he suggests delaying your first cup of coffee and cutting down on caffeine throughout the day. By doing so, you reduce stress on your adrenal glands and improve your overall energy levels. The episode revisits newer alternatives to caffeine, particularly paraxanthine, a compound that offers a similar boost without the negative side effects.

If you're looking to improve your sleep hygiene and recovery routines, this episode provides quick and easy tips you can incorporate into your life today!
