Staying completely free of caffeine and other toxics like that whether natural or synthetic.
- speedylight 3y agoHow does being caffeine free help? I drink a butt load of coffee everyday so that’s been my norm for a few years.
- mathgeek 3y agoThere's no definitive study that I'm aware of, but anecdotally many people have trouble getting to sleep if they consume caffeine too late in the day, and/or struggle to get out of bed before regularly consuming caffeine in the morning.
- cantSpellSober 3y agoThis study provides some interesting insights: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6292246/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6292246/ It cites another study, Orbeta et al: > students reporting high caffeine intake are more likely to be tired in the morning than those reporting very low intakes
- HackeNewsFan234 3y agoPart of being feeling tired in the morning can actually be caffeine withdrawal symptoms. You start off in a low and need your fix to get back to normal. Once you get off of it, that normal becomes your normal again. I was 2-5 cups/day drinker for years. I tapered down my intake over a month, but the first couple weeks of no caffeine was hard. I'd guess it took months before I really felt free. I drink decaf most days now. When I have the occasional cup of real coffee ( 4 times a year), it gives me a good boost.
- petecog 3y agoFor me, my sleep quality noticeably improved ober night after I stopped all caffeine. I had headaches for about 2 days, then slept the best I had in years. I wasn't a big coffee drinker. 2 cups with breakfast, maybe a black tea or 2 in the day, nothing after about 4pm. But it was obviously still in my system at night.
- ejo4041 3y agoCan confirm, never felt more tired day to day than when I was drinking two cups of coffee per day. Stopped 2 years ago and never looked back. The first 30 days are the worst, but after that, a glass of water wakes me up just as effectively.
- kirkarg 3y agoI would love to do this, my biggest fear is bowel movement,coffee is the trigger and I'm honestly afraid of leaving it because of this.
