Alcohol hits harder on a GLP-1. Coffee sits longer. Both dehydrate a body that is already drinking less. The useful article is not a sermon. It is what changed, and what a practical limit looks like.
| What changes on GLP-1 | A practical limit | |
|---|---|---|
| Alcohol | Slower emptying, higher peak, worse reflux, a cheaper drunk | Fewer drinks, earlier, never on an empty stomach. Two is a different night from one |
| Coffee | Same half-life, less food around it, more chance it is the only fluid before noon | Water first. Cut-off 8 to 10 hours before bed. Cold brew is not innocent |
| Both together, late | The second half of the night is already the fragile part | Pick one, and pick it at dinner, not at 10pm |
Tolerance drops for a mechanical reason
The stomach is slower. Alcohol arrives in a lump, or arrives late. People describe one glass doing the work of three, and a worse reflux than they had at 35. That is not weakness. That is pharmacokinetics on a delayed emptying time.
Coffee does not get stronger. The context gets worse: less water, less food, a lighter night, a medicine that already fragments some people's sleep. The half-life piece is here. The alcohol-and-deep-sleep piece is here.
Electrolytes, without a sachet
If you drink, drink water alongside. A pinch of salt in the morning after a wedding is closer to what you need than a branded packet. We do not sell those packets.
The last hour still needs a shape that is not a nightcap. SleepHit is the wind-down: glycine, magnesium bisglycinate, L-theanine, ashwagandha, taurine and B6, one stick, 8 to 12 oz, 30 to 60 minutes before bed. It is a replacement for the ritual, not a liver treatment.
