Shah Rukh Khan shares Mannat plans as Rs 300 cr home gets renovated: ‘A new gallery’
In an AMA session on X, Shah Rukh Khan shared his personal morning ritual, revealing that he starts his day by drinking three cups of coffee in bed before anybody can speak with him, even if he's running late for work. This unique routine is followed by on-set encounters where he often finds himself being scolded for being late, leaving him without any "Kingly" feelings.
During his AMA, Khan also mentioned Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations at home, where his wife performs the Aarti, followed by prayers, and the family gathers to have fun and laugh together.
Coffee plays a crucial role in many people's morning routines, not only for its caffeine content but also for the sense of comfort and stability that comes with that first cup. Caffeine works by blocking adenosine receptors, reducing sleepiness, and increasing alertness. Consultant dietitian Garima Goyal explained that this effect can make people feel more awake and ready to begin their day.
However, Goyal emphasized that there is a difference between enjoying coffee and relying on large amounts of caffeine to compensate for insufficient sleep. She highlighted that while three cups may be part of Shah Rukh Khan's personal routine, they shouldn't be considered a recommendation for everyone.
The caffeine content in coffee varies depending on factors like size and brewing method. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) states that up to 400 mg of caffeine per day is generally safe for most healthy adults, although individual sensitivity varies. A typical 12-ounce brewed coffee contains between 113–247 mg of caffeine. Consuming three cups of coffee can lead to substantial caffeine intake, potentially causing side effects such as jitters, anxiety, palpitations, increased heart rate, digestive discomfort, and sleep disruption in sensitive individuals.
Goyal pointed out that if coffee is being used to overcome poor sleep, it can create a cycle in which sleep quality is affected and more caffeine is needed the following morning. While Shah Rukh Khan's three cups of coffee in bed are a personal preference, they highlight the importance of maintaining a balanced lifestyle when it comes to caffeine consumption.
If someone can enjoy their coffee without experiencing negative side effects, it can fit comfortably into a healthy routine. The most relatable aspect of Khan's post, according to Goyal, is not the number of cups, but the idea that everyone has their own unique pre-dawn ritual to face the day.
