Dam Coffee! I keep managing to stop drinking it but then have a relapse again :( haha. This is a very well made article and its already resteemed!
Luckily I didnt like it until my early twentys but the real coffee began when I went to spain and started drinking super strong coffees, which even lead to drinking expresso beans instead of regular coffee. What a horrible drug.
And now to hear that its a carcinogen?! Makes sense I guess concidering how widely available it is in most parts of the world in one form or another, and prices ranging from rich to poor.
Time I do another complete switch back to tea :) thanks for the reminder!
Once you stop it though and then drink a strong cup, I feel that it effects my muscles and I even believe it creates sciatica nerve pain and problems if one has problems there already.
Thanks for the resteem :) yea most of the alternatives are excellent pain relievers. I actually don't drink tea either except herbal ones, im a bit concerned about tannins plus I prefer to keep caffeine intake to a minimum. It's probably ok to drink one but no more than 2 cups of it a day.
Very welcome :) One becomes very sensitive to even the caffine from black tea say, or tea-ines?! Even for myself green tea makes me hypo lol. Its shedding light on why theres coffee everywhere and such a shit trade for the producers, I saw years ago a doku called Black Gold about coffee production. Pritty dark out!
Just like sugar , a drug "pushed" by governments :( Somehow even if I buy decaf from an organic shop, I can still feel the caffine but its maybe placebo as muscles have memory lol.
Happens frequently to me too.
I do have a problem, I'm getting head ache from coffee. I'm getting head ache if I drink too much of it, and I get a head ache if I stop drinking it. It should be pretty obvious that it's best for me to stay away ... still every now and then I'm relapsing.
Luckily ive not got to that stage with withdrawals, and dont plan to either :) Its so bad that it was yesterday I read this article, then went to work - and them remembered about it as I took the last gulp of the second latte.
Is there such things as Coffee Rehabs?!
Lol switch to decaf first (altho the cancer element is still present) at least it helps u to get of the caffeine side without sort of realizing because its exactly like coffee. Other suggestion is to find a tea u like and just bring the tea bags with u to work (herbal prefably) then u won't have to use milk (cruelty free) or looks at the last link about where u can buy these chicory coffee alternative. U might want to check out my latest article https://steemit.com/ecotrain/@celestialcow/5-health-foods-that-we-think-are-good-for-us-but-can-be-harmful
even with decaf I get the shakes, altough not so badly, i still feel it in the jaw. Is there such thing as caffeine sensitive? seriously i have exactlt the same effects from coffee, physically as I get from amphetamines lol.
Im just to avoid it all (the legal drugs I mean) its twisted lol
Drink lots of water if u get a headache but u need good water (filter it if u can) also hot lemon and water flushes out your system. U just got to train urself to reach for other drink alternative. I really like warm drinks and teas so it was quite easy for me to switch over to another kind of beverage.
