Coffee: The Hermes or Hygieia of Our Daily lives?
Briefly

Caffeine in coffee blocks adenosine, a neurotransmitter that induces sleepiness, leading to heightened energy and alertness in a way that resonates with Hermes, the Greek god of speed.
Excessive coffee consumption can lead to hypertension, increasing blood pressure and leading to serious health issues, much like Hermes' quick nature which can disrupt balance and cycles.
In moderation, coffee can be beneficial, reducing hunger by lowering ghrelin levels, and thus reflecting Hygieia's attributes of health and balance.
While a cup of coffee can feel like a lifeline, overindulging can make you feel jittery and anxious, emphasizing the need for balance in consumption.
