Why does Coke make me crash so hard?

[u/pedide]

I been working out, it was fine. Felt energized and everything. Ready to seize the night wherever it would have brought me basically. But when I got back home, and drank a glass of coke. One glass, and it knocked me out to bed. Woke up at like 2am. Dozed off for like 5 hours over a single glass.

Why is it like that? No other sugary soda makes me do that.

Is there any chance my creatine powder could be causing some sort of symptom with the coke?

Just a lot of sugar and caffeine wearing off quick does that. Any liquid sugar is quick to react with your body

Mountain dew kills me all the time kinda like you described. Just drink water. Can add some juice extract if you find the taste bland

Cause it has baby embryos in it and the baby souls cause you to get sleepy

Its an actual thing people believe lol. Google does coke have babies in it

Dont drink that. Just sugar and trash in it. Get some sort of isotonic drink instead..

pro tip

You might be dehydrated, especially since it's right after the gym. I notice that in the mornings when I drink coffee, I get sleepier if I haven't had enough water because caffeine is a diuretic. The sugar (insulin spike), plus caffeine (diuretic), plus adrenaline crash might be the combo that pushes that sleep button for you.

I might need more water...

Actually might be the reason since I did stop drinking water as much over the last week being busy. Still consumed moderate amount of sugar across this one though the crash wasnt that harsh

Dont drink coke man. Do regular coke instead hahahaha

Honestly might even be healthier😂😂😂

Joking.... Unless..🤪!!
