The people who say they need 3 cups of black coffee to start their day are just addicts with a high tolerance that experience mild withdrawal symptoms each morning.

If you feel like that, it’s your body crying for you to take a break.

If you like an occasional cup of coffee or energy drink to get through something, then that’s fine. But if you ever feel like one isn’t working like it used to, you should take a break from caffeine to reset your tolerance, not up the dosage like an addict.

    And the massive coffee industry pumps out these studies every year. Don’t forget how energy drinks like Red Bull with lower caffeine density will kill you… don’t you dare quit or switch.

        You’re a coffee drinker, it’s ok to be offended. That’s the withdrawal. Try to find credible, verifiable, reproducible evidence to justify how many times we hear about the “health benefits” of coffee. Go ahead, I’ll wait.
