I never used to drink coffee up until I graduated from University and entered the workforce. I want to cut this coffee drinking habit because I don't think it can be healthy to Men, although some studies indicate that coffee supposedly have some health benefits. Do you drink coffee? Can you go by without drinking Coffee?

Former coffee drinker here.

Like you I didn't drink much coffee until graduating college and starting work. (It was Free, why not?)
For about two years I used to drink two cups a day until I noticed it affecting my ability to fall asleep. Additionally, on the weekends - when I didn't drink coffee - I'd get withdrawal headaches.

So, I stopped drinking it, slowly at first by mixing with decaf. I'm now able to fall asleep normally and have the loveliest of dreams.

Another thing that bothered me about drinking coffee...By using it, I felt like I was essentially taking a drug to get me through the day. This felt...wrong. And it led me to reorganize aspects of my day to diminish my "need" of caffeine.

Drink 2 cups in the a.m. and then 1-2 in the afternoon. I don't feel right w/o it in the morning. But like with any other addiction, your body starts to crave it. With time, your body will change and process the necessary chemicals it needs to stay awake.

Coffee is very acidic, can have effects on your stomach for ulcers, etc. It's caffeinated therefore it has an effect on blood pressure.

I usually drink a cup a cup in the morning with some water to wake me up for the day.

Gotta stay on top of that listerine and brushing often, because it does stain your teeth.

2 days without coffee you laying in bed in a ball thinking you catch in the flu.

Takes a solid day to get through a withdrawl spell. And it hurts. O it hurts. If I didn't know Brazilian jujitsu the pain Might actually bother me

Former coffee drinker. But I was inconsistent. A few days on, a few off. A week on, a month off.

I just like hot drinks. Tea only nowadays.

If you think you're hooked, ween yourself off with teas with less caffeine. Dandelion tea is the shyt!

If you think you need the pep, try somethin' else (not energy drinks) that gives you energy. Matcha tea is the shyt!

2-3 cups a day

It's good for you as it has antioxidants and gives me more energy which makes me more productive

I take it down with food to avoid the runs
