For what? To do what?

before a workout?

if you are working out fasted that is an option as long as the coffee is plain and not too heavy.

i personally only care about doing 1 thing before a workout and that is hydrating when i wake up and shitting/pissing out everything i can... i don't NEED coffee but i understand some of you are addicted to it that you can't function without it.. ironically coffee is a diuretic and will dehydrate you. so you don't want to consume it if possible

I have no issue with caffeine in moderation. One cup of coffee actually has a lot of health benefits associated to it.

As with anything the problem is excess. Lots of caffeine will put a lot of strain on your adrenal glands and raise cortisol levels

I would venture to say most people drink their AM coffee on an empty stomach. I dont see an issue with it.
