6 or 7 cups a day is a lot, but one or two won't harm you. Sounds like a cutback was in order, but why completely shut off the flow of the NECTAR OF THE GODS? {coffee} |

Ok last week I gave up drinking Coffee, I now only drink water at work or at home, in an attempt to become even more of a health freak lol. I used to find myself drinking up to 6/7 cups a day |

Why do you want to quit it? Is it a serious health threat, like, say, commonly used drugs in society today? I've heard tea being placed on the same level as coffee - bad for health, some say. But I drink it nearly every day and I don't see any harm coming from it. |

Coffee like all stimulants can be addictive but if i was you Adam i would just try and suplement something else that you like that is also healthy to keep your cravings at bay, also try and keep your mind busy. Also, don't quit staight away if you do, just cut down, make it 5 cups instead of 6/7 and work from there, but 1-2 cups a day is not bad for you, just do things in moderation and don't rush into things, hope things go well my master |
|
For me it's better to drink less of it, so that I will not built a tolerance. |

Well I feel more awake in the day believe it or not, and am staying awake for longer in the night but it can help in stress reduction (I am quite stressed at the moment, have a lot of life changing decisions which need to be made in personal and work life) Sleep problems, irritability, anxiety and depression are aggravated by caffeine too, ok I'm not depressed, or suffer from anxiety but do feel low a lot of the time... |
|
It's not worth it. Because I can't |
|
One or 2 cups of coffee per day are not harmful - and I thought I read somewhere that it was beneficial in some way. But yeah, 6 or 7 cups is way too much, Adam! |
|
|
|
I agree 1 or 2 cups is not bad. Don't give up tea. I think excessive tea is less harmful than excessive coffee. |
|
I do drink Smoothies everyday too, I love them |
|
would drinkin cappucinno twice a day affect my REM length etc if i drink more than 4 hours before i go to bed |
|
Drink green tea with honey. Nothing to worry about there if you take it easy. |
|
Everything in moderation I think. Try and drink mainly water, but maybe a cup or so of coffee a day? |
|
I find that recently I am dreaking a pot of coffee a day, but if you have been drinking a lot of coffee for a long time and stop suddenly you will get withdrawls since the caffeine in coffee is a drug so you might find yourself getting headaches etc. from not drinking coffee I say you either. |
|
I'm more of a sweeter-coffee-drink person when I'm getting something fancy, but I'll drink everything from drip coffee to americanos to mochas to blended drinks. |

You are a sweat coffee drinker! |

I gave up coffee over a year ago, I think, and I'm so glad I did. It's great knowing I can start off a day without having to pump myself full of caffine. |
|
Hmm. I just started drinking coffee about a month ago. Dont really like the taste and I feel really light-headed when I come down. I think I'm gonna stop too. Not saying that it will be that hard for me, but we can get through it together |
|
Why does it seem so hard to wake up now and see who we really are?
Well it's been about 2 weeks now, and the cravings have gone finally, although I find I am struggling to get through the day at work now, although that might be because I am being kept up till 12-1am talking :p |
|
I wish I could afford enough coffee to get addicted. By that I mean fancy blended drinks. Won't drink anything else!! |
|
It costs me a fortune!! Its £1.05 for a latte where I work, which is about $2.10 in your language, I think. Not sure if that is expensive for you, but this is work coffee, granted they make it from a fancy machine, but it should be subsidised really!! |
|
Oh I know all about pounds, I'm English at heart you know!!! |
|
Pshhhhh my sister will only drink Starbucks coffee and I swear nothing is less than $5 there so you are looking at like $30 if you want 6 cups of coffee hahaha. Now that is expensive. |
