What counteracts cafine and restlessness?

Question

I drank too much coffee and I'm hyper. Is there anything that acts as an anti-coffee?

I'm thinking oatmeal might do it, i don't know why it just seems possible

Answer 1

I got this list from http://askdrsears.com/html/4/T042400.asp. I hope it helps you.



SNOOZE FOODS
These are foods high in the sleep-inducing amino acid tryptophan:
Dairy products: cottage cheese, cheese, milk Soy products: soy milk, tofu, soybean nuts Seafood Meats Poultry Whole grains Beans Rice Hummus Lentils Hazelnuts, Peanuts Eggs Sesame seeds, sunflower seeds

BEST BEDTIME SNACKS
Foods that are high in carbohydrates and calcium, and medium-to-low in protein also make ideal sleep-inducing bedtime snacks. Some examples:
apple pie and ice cream (my favorite) whole-grain cereal with milk hazelnuts and tofu oatmeal and raisin cookies, and a glass of milk peanut butter sandwich, ground sesame seeds (It takes around one hour for the tryptophan in the foods to reach the brain, so don't wait until right before bedtime to have your snack.)

BEST DINNERS FOR SLEEP
Meals that are high in carbohydrates and low-to-medium in protein will help you relax in the evening and set you up for a good night's sleep. Try the following "dinners for sleep":
pasta with parmesan cheese scrambled eggs and cheese tofu stirfry hummus with whole wheat pita bread seafood, pasta, and cottage cheese meats and poultry with veggies tuna salad sandwich chili with beans, not spicy sesame seeds (rich in tryptophan) sprinkled on salad with tuna chunks, and whole wheat crackers

Answer 2

Herbal Tea's can have a relaxing effect. Exercise and drink water to flush out the caffeine. Learn that you have a low tolerance for coffee being hyper is not fun. If you are addicted switch to half caf-half decaf you will avoid the caffeine withdrawal headaches then go decaf or to herbal teas.

Answer 3

Well Ativan is good for that. However you'd need a doctor's prescription. Sugar, even though it makes you hyper to begin with too helps, as well as food (especially turkey).

Answer 4

You can sugar crash. Eat something high in sugar release. Bananna, orange, honey, It will be immediately absorbed in your blood and your body will shoot it other places leaving you feeling tured Since you had so much coffee it might balance you out.

Answer 5

I don't think there is anything that will counteract it, but try to cut back drastically and or try decaffeinated beverages. Good luck.
