Anyone else find it very hard to ditch caffeine?

I usually start my day with one bag of black tea, but two days a week I have one k cup worth of coffee. Sometimes it'll pull me from feeling crappy to feeling decent all day! I can't give this up completely!

I have been having Bulletproof coffee every morning. I cannot tell you how much this has helped me! I know that on top of coffee I am drinking a bunch of really good fats that are healing my brain plus it makes me feel soooo good! This coffee has no mold which 99% of teas and other coffee has so I feel OK about drinking it.

Are you sure teas do? The brand is called bulletproof huh? I'll look into it

Just make sure you stay adequately hydrated. Caffeine contains multiple nitrogen molecules and water is utilized to eliminate it from our body. Caffeine can also block several methyltranferases responsible for the direct pathway across the methionine cycle so if you have any BHMT mutations, this could be an issue.

Hi there Reba, Girrrl....I can recall my only thing that gets me outta bed sometimes is looking forward to that cup of coffee to get me going and like you said-'make me feel decent for awhile'. I loVVVe my Keurig! Quick & Freshest coffee...mm mmm ;-) I dont over do it though, I just have my *one cup.

I also love my tea to, esp green w/stevia.

Yes Reba tragically most tea has mold in it! I wish I had never found out! I love tea! So if I have it it is loose leaf organic very expensive tea and I still cannot count on it being mold free. Sad. Black tea is fermented and anything fermented has a very high chance of having mold in it. That makes me wanna cry. That means no sauerkraut, tea, kefir, etc. for me. Boooohoooohoooo!
