Relying on Caffeine?

[Empire]

With here has caffeine? It comes in many forms, either naturally or refined. What is your addiction to caffeine that you need to help you get through a particularly tough day?

Mine is usually three cups of good coffee a week, maybe 4 max, I don't have any other forms, like caffeine pill, a regular soda, or an energy drink.

I am allergic to milk, so I dont take tea or coffee. Been that way from my younger days itself.

Lately, after visiting a friend of mine who is a green tea addict, I started drinking them, only to find out that it is very refreshing. Now I drink 1 cup of brewed green tea everyday, ocassionally 2.

If at all I am drinking green tea, I take them without sugar or honey and in empty stomach after excercise. I recommend it to everyone.

Umm coffee is a must in the business world... I drink about 3-5 cups a day... yeah it’s not healthy hahaha.
Black coffee of course!

I drink energy drinks ecwry day, about 2-3 a day. I do it mostly because of the taste since i dont really feal that the caffeine has an affect on me, at least not the way it used to had a couple years ago when i started consuming it

 

[Deleted member 403]

I drink around 2 liters Pepsi Max over a day, for my everyday caffeine fixed. I do this mostly because of the refreshing taste of the beverage, and I'm trying to cut down. Every morning and evening, my teeth are cleaned as I'm wary of the acidic levels in the drink.

I am super sensitive to caffeine so I try to limit my intake to once a week. I probably shouldn't even have that much because it is difficult to sleep at night from the rapid heartbeat that caffeine has on my heart. I like decaf coffee but it takes a while to get used to the weird taste.

I generally have caffeine, but haven't been relying on it as much, since the place I work at, has restricted the number of people allowed in the building. So doing things require less effort to keep going now. Though, when I was actively taking caffeine on a daily basis, I was taking a b complex pill and a caffeine pill in the morning before going out, and would generally take another caffeine pill, or buy a soda, sometime around lunch time to push through the rest of the day.

A problem with soda drinks is that they can weaken cartridge and bones I think. They're also horror on teeth, assuming you don't brush. Of course, this is the tip of the iceberg I think.

 

[Joshua Farrell]

Well, the thing that is constantly going around; abit dentists generally say it because of teeth, but family doctors will mention it if it is a problem; is that soda (anything carbonated really), tends to reduce how much calcium your body has in it, making it harder on your system to protect itself from outside factors.

My only caffeine intake is from coffee, tea, and coke. I can't stand any of the energy drinks, and I've never felt the need to try caffeine pills.

My psychiatrist recently said I was drinking too much coffee (about 5-7 cups per day), and doing so can supposedly have a similar effect on mental health as cannabis. It's very difficult to cut down on though, since I've been pretty much reliant on it for 15+ years.. I can't function in a morning without a coffee! ?

With me, it is not so much a addiction, as I hate the withdraw symptoms when I go from a large amount of caffeine at a time, to a much smaller amount (or cold turkey). I hate getting the throbbing headaches. So the pills work with reducing my overall need (and the side effects of withdrawal), if I have the caffeine pills in 100 mg or smaller amounts.

I think a balanced lifestyle should be able to help someone who has addictions. For instance, many people drink caffeine, but do they jog and do weights sometimes?

I usually have 3 cups from my gas station. Even though it's kinda crap coffee.

 

[vest1992]

I would choose an apple a day instead of a cup of coffee and it has the same results but it s healthier

 

[Niftyyem]

Maybe a cup of green tea. I rarely take coffee.

According to the papers I read, moderate coffee consumption (3-5 cups a day) does not affect health negatively. Some studies show that it can actually benefit health (e.g. increase cognitive ability and decrease risk of stroke) Some sources:

Thats reassuring since I rarely have 5 or more.

Yes , I've to be honest that up to some extent , I do rely on caffeine. It keeps my mind running all the time , a cup of coffee in the morning or a can of Red Bull every morning is a necessity for me.

 

[Ralphjoe]

It's been long since I had any caffeinated products inpact the very last time I took anything that contains caffeine was when I took panadol extra and that has been a very long time ago so I don't depend on caffeine to survive.

 

[Spicywilfred]

Reason why I don't take too much caffeine is because I have heard that caffeine too much of it is bad for the health, so I actually run away from anything that will give me health issues. Health is wealth.

 

[btaliat]

Caffeine is not that good for healthy life. I don't like engaging in things that I know may have negative influence in my life because the end result may come during old age.

 

[Erik4150]

Relying on caffeine is not very good for the body. Caffeine overdose is real and it can be very fatal to the human body. Too much of something is bad.

 

[Abigael]

I do not not take any form of caffeine because it really affects my body's hormones. I don't know what its stimulation effects does to me but I get too emotional after taking caffeine. So I stopped taking it.

I don't take caffeine in anyway because I believe I have the natural caffeine in me. When I feel disturb at work only thing that goes through my mouth is a cup or two cup of water by doing that am good to go.

Taking caffeine to keep sleep away from you may not be the smattest move to be doing. At some point, it becomes addiction and you'll then begin to need medical attention to sleep

I used to have an addiction to soda, OMG everyday I would take a bottle on my way back from work , untill I got pregnant then I hated it with a passion, that was how my addiction stopped!

 

[Victor72]

Yes of course I am addicted to caffeine this is because I can't stay without drinking caffeine every morning. Well but I see nothing wrong in that

 

[Richard92]

I love talking caffeine drinks, drinks which contain caffeine are very nutritious and healthy for the body and I always take this every morning when I wake.

 

[Anna52]

I love taking coffee but I don't take it too much because addiction is not what I like. I miss up my days with tea and sometimes coffee once in a while.

 

[Senator]

At some point, this medical attention that you may now need to reverse the lack of sleep condition, may then not be easy to reverse this new situation of inability to sleep

 

[Shigobad2020]

I only takes caffeine once awhile because I heard too much of caffeine is bad for the health and i dont have any reason to be taking it constantly.

It is not good to rely on substances to get the best results out of life,there are several natural ways to go about handling certain aspects .

 

[Doradorwa]

I'm allergic to caffeine. I don't take it in any way. In drink or in drugs. There is need to know ones limit and for those who drink coffee the max recommended is just a cup per day.
