Sweet Nectar of the Gods

You know I'm talking about coffee.

 Since a certain cousin moved into our house, I've been drinking a lot of coffee because it's there, it's hot, and it's delicious. I put in a little (sometimes a lot) of soy vanilla creamer. I know, I know, soy can inhibit thyroid function, but my grocery store doesn't have any more delicious options.

Yesterday I had two ginormous cups of coffee. I felt SO GREAT all morning and then crashed all afternoon, complete with headache and muscle pain.

What was happening?

My friend Google tells me that coffee, in particular caffeine, can inhibit absorption of thyroid hormone.

I'm going to go weep into my cup of morning tea now...
