    Don't worry,we will never stop drinking coffee,no matter how expensive it gets. You should demand higher prices for your produce that big companies get for a low price and resell for a huge profit. I wish you freedom from the big corporations that exploit you.

I stop it for 3 months, then return to it again, then stop it for good after 2 months. Sometimes i still miss that little boost in the morning....But I really don't miss how bad I can feel for the next 6 hours after. So happy to be coffee free now at 36 years old

    I gave up coffee recently. I started drinking coffee daily at the age of sixteen, and it became an addiction. It all started when I wanted to stay awake and study for an exam. I totally regret drinking coffee for eighteen years. My health is much better after I quit coffee. I used to frequently get heartburn and mouth ulcers when I was drinking coffee. I also suffered from anemia because coffee and tea reduce the absorption of iron in your intestine.

    I've never had coffee until a few years ago, when I started testing it. My overall takeaway is that it leaves me with less energy, and makes me more tired and less energetic about life and all the things I'm focusing on. I recommend you try cutting out this dangerous drug - try going a week without it. Being addicted to or reliant on any drug is terrible. You don't have to cut it out completely, but just try and see for yourself how you feel.

    Try combining half decade and half regular strength when brewing, this should help any symptoms/side effects. You can also adjust varying amounts of caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee, according to your body’s reaction. Try not to drink coffee after 3:00PM. I can drink it much later without experiencing side effects…including insomnia. Yet, my brother cannot tolerate any amount of coffee, so I looked into Green and Black Tea, as well as, other caffeinated options on his behalf. Strangely, I discovered my brother is able to drink Green and Black Tea…yet…I cannot touch Green Tea without experiencing severe side effects…ranging from migraine headaches, nausea/vomiting, and severe joint pain - to name a few. Scientific research has demonstrated coffee to be effective in preventing multiple diseases…Alzheimer’s, Chronic Constipation, and Colon Cancer, among many others. Cheers!🇨🇦☺🇨🇦

    last year I realized that years of periodic painful, red and purple toes, which eventually peeled like the frost nip peels, was caused by my caffeine intake from lots of coffee, lots of chocolate milk and excessive hot coco powder. it has an affect on some peoples liver. 12 months without coffee. I miss it, but I save a LOT of money... for some reason, moderation is more difficult with psychoactive substances ; ),

    Have you ever tried combining varying amounts of decaffeinated and caffeinated coffee when brewing? I have to do so for some of my family members who are sensitive to caffeine. At Christmas and throughout the Holiday Season, I make “Specialty Coffees” for family and friends alike. I even make fully decaf and various combinations of caffeinated/decaffeinated for those who are sensitive to caffeine. This way, everyone enjoys their specialty cup of Java, along with my homemade baking. Cheers!🇨🇦

I had very little sleep, developed migraines, had rapid heartbeats and was very irritable and always on some kind of an impulse. I discovered coffee might have been the cause when, on one particular week I did not take coffee and I felt different. Since then, I stopped taking coffee completely!

    Good suggestion. Unfortunately, I have Crohn’s disease, so I cannot consume inulin, unless I want to be hospitalized. So, what I do is use a locally sourced, organic decaffeinated and caffeinated roast. I use varying amounts of both, depending upon who I’m sharing my coffee with. On the occasion where I combine half decaffeinated with caffeinated, I can enjoy a bit more coffee in my day, which is always delightful! Cheers!🇨🇦

    one big reason is caffeine withdrawal (which you experience each day unless you have caffeine or quit). That causes ADHD type symptoms. You think you're getting relief from ADHD, but you're in fact just alleviating the withdrawal process. ADHD is an issue with the dopaminergic system and caffeine messes with that. The fix is actually no drugs whatsoever (including caffeine, alcohol, nicotine, weed) and a ketogenic/carnivore diet. It regulates brain function. Sugar and ultra-processed foods can also cause over-excitation triggering ADHD, just like drugs can.
