other people here who love coffee but feel like it's impacting them mentally detrimental in some way and hence decided to either ditch caffeine altogether or switch to a milder source like green tea?
my impression is that avoiding caffeine intake of +30mg (rough estimate) helps me stay calmer and more collected. but i miss the buzz ... the mental fireworks.
- rcarr 4y agoI know you mentioned green tea but you might want to look at matcha if you haven't already. Similar caffeine level to coffee but the theanine balances out the caffeine so you don't get as jittery.
