Do you need coffee to stay awake? Do you need coffee to be productive? A lot of people think coffee is what keeps them going all day, but is that really the case or is it just in their head? I love coffee and have at least a cup a day, but I always wondered what it would be like to not drink coffee. I stopped drinking coffee for an entire week to find out.

I quit drinking coffee about 3 months ago. The first week of quiting I actually had withdrawals. I was super tired and had headaches all the time. The worst past after a week and after that it gradually got better. I'm now on a point where I wake up way more awake in the morning and my energy levels are all a lot more stable during the day. I can honestly recommend quiting coffee.

"(no) coffee" isn't your problem. All your other bad habits are. For example how about you just DON'T eat too much at lunch so you wouldn't need your after-lunch coffee. And I guess you go to sleep too late so you need something to wake you up in the morning. And you noticed that you had less headaches. So you are just addicted to coffee. What's this video supposed to prove? For the coffee lovers it's just a confirmation/excuse to keep drinking a lot coffee. But think about how much money you would save, how healthier you would live and how much resources wouldn't be wasted.

Those studies were done with people who were not previously drinking coffee. He thoroughly explained why I get tired, drinking even just one cup of coffee a day and it makes total sense. It has taken me a long time to get over the withdrawals of the caffeine but it was so worth it. It's called the Energy Blueprint if you're interested. I didn't have to quit coffee completely but I learned how much is okay.
