I quit Coffee one month each year (Ramadan while fasting). It has the effect of resetting my tolerance to caffeine. The first coffee after Ramandan feels more like Cocaine than Caffeine, almost like a superpower.
However, I have to say, I don't see any difference in sleep quality with or without coffee. I just make sure only to drink coffee in the morning.
- raccoonDivider 3y agoDoesn't that make the first few days of fasting miserable? Have you tried progressively reducing the dosage for a few weeks in preparation?
- resiros 3y agoI do exactly that. Usually I quit one week before Ramadan. When quitting, it's common to get headaches. When quitting before Ramadan, you can alleviate it with a bit of Aspirin.
- wwilim 3y agoIsn't subjecting oneself to feeling miserable kind of the point of religious fasting?
- resiros 3y agoNot really, and you would be surprised that you feel more of a lightness, clarity and not miserable. It's the same for running, it's hard, but you don't feel miserable when doing it.
- raccoonDivider 3y agoI've fasted for an entire day a few days at a time, it didn't really make me feel miserable.
- electrosphere 3y agoYes, I fast for Ramadan and about a week beforehand switch to decaf for all my hot beverages. When I didn't the headaches were terrible in the first few days of fasting.
