If it’s coffee/tea, how do you take it? I typically end up consuming 200-400 Mg a day depending on if I go to the gym or work overnight. I either do black coffee (iced ideally) or sugar free redbull/monster. I’m considering switching to caffeine pills but I know it wont scratch that habitual itch of drinking it down.
I had to significantly cut back because of my SSRIs so I take 400mg in the morning before going on a 2h Bike ride before sunset.
I completely replaced coffee with these energy drink mix that helps stay hydrated while cycling and is keto friendly / sugar free.
Highly recommend it, normally I drink one pouch (200mg) when I wake up, and I take the second L with me on the bike with some extra electrolytes. It’s what plants crave!
Mostly only one cup when I wake up and that’s only because I like the taste as caffeine has no or the opposite effect on me. I drink some Redbull-like knockoff (boycotted redbull) every now and then, also just because I like the taste, can and often do easily go to sleep any time after.
2 16-oz cups of coffee with non-dairy creamer to start my day, followed by a pre-lunch SF Rockstar, followed by a post-lunch SF Rockstar, an occasional (1-2x weely) afternoon triple shot latte, finished with an occasional dinnertime 20oz Diet Pepsi… all interspersed with 22 sticks of nicotine.
Might be ADHD, maybe narcolepsy. I still get 10 solid hours of sleep, so it clearly doesn’t interfere with that.
If need to do important work and really tired I drink an energy drink with ~160mg, sometimes I’ll drink a cup of black tea in the morning
A “pot” of coffee every morning sometimes more. And occasionally a Celcius if I’m up late for whatever
I don’t intentionally. I have severe ADHD and I’ve never noticed any effects no matter how little or how much I consume.
140mg daily within about 15 min of waking up by way of ZOA, which is like a seltzer drink, similar to Celsius but less caffeine and no aspertame which I have a sensitivity to.
I pretty much stick between 100-200mg daily though, less and I feel like a zombie, more and my anxiety goes through the roof.
fuck off, bot.
Loose leaf tea, re-steeped several times over the course of the day. The caffeine content goes down with each successive stepping, but good quality whole leaves will still let you get several cups out of them.
I stop making it at 3, which usually gives me enough time to metabolize it and sleep normally.
One cup of coffee with milk in the morning
Probably between 200-300mg. I would never do caffeine pills, as I enjoy my methods of caffeine consumption.
Typically, I’ll either drink a 2-cup moka pot, or some espresso. I never drink drip or French press coffee. Too bland. Turkish coffee is also good, but I don’t get that too often.
If not coffee, it’s usually Monster rehabs or Celsius. Tea is more for enjoyment than the caffeine content.
2-3 cups a day.
preworkout, 400mg/day before training, ofc not if I rest
Damn that is a lot to be dumping into your system for a workout. Do you not get jitters?
Zero.
There are too few of us.
None anymore. It took me a while to realize the the most energetic and level headed people that I know in my life don’t even consume caffeine.
Caffeine addition keeps you permanently tired and getting the next hit just brings you back up closer to to the energy levels of people who don’t consume it.
It is hard as hell to quit because it is so addictive, but the other side is so much better…
This is not true for everyone
