Somewhere I read that around the beginning of last century they used to prescribe heroin to get people off morphin addiction. Sure it works, but it defeats the purpose. Caffeine has most averse effects of sugar, plus increased rebound effect, tolerance, and addiction. Also, if you had a sugar crave to start with, caffeine will only augment it. I suggest first introducing high fiber foods in your diet (mainly vegetables), and start using fruit to get your sugar fixes. Fiber will help stabilize your sugar levels, taking you out of the glucose roller coaster and the insulin/glucose vicious cycle. Then it will be easier to gradually reduce your intake of sweets. I've read Chromium supplements help with this stabilization, but I've tried it and I couldn't tell for sure.
