How to reduce half-life of caffeine?
Caffeine has a typical half-life of 5–6 hours, but some of us take much longer to metabolize it (1 cup of coffee at breakfast can leave me sleepless that night).
I know I can cut the caffeine's half-life in half by taking up smoking, but that's not a reasonable solution. ("Smoking tobacco increases caffeine clearance by 56%" — Caffeine - Wikipedia)
Other than that, I haven't been able to find anything that can speed up the caffeine elimination.
Are there any foods, drugs, etc. that have this effect?
(I'm not asking for personal medical advice; simply using myself as an example.)
