The negative effects of caffeine on the body are becoming more known.
I know. It might sound radical to eliminate or drastically reduce caffeine. Heck I love my coffee: the aroma, the taste.
But just try it for at least 21 days and then see if you feel it’s worth continuing to at drastically reduce or even eliminate your intake of caffeine.
And not just coffee. You’ll also find it in the form of sodas, energy drinks, energy bars, you name it.
Read further and you’ll see why this might be a REALLY GREAT IDEA for you.
You will find it much easier to do IF you focus on what you
are adding to your life rather than on what you are giving up.
As an example, I once tried to cut out drinking coffee and I found
myself thinking about NOT drinking coffee all day long. Of course,
that only made it harder and in the end I ended up drinking more
than usual.
But when I focused on changing my lifestyle for the better: eating
organic fresh veggies and exercising; when I really focused on what
I was ADDING to my life, I didn’t think about the coffee as much and it
just fell away.
By the way, I learned at the
Hippocrates Institute
one of the much lesser known negative effects of caffeine on the body: that it destroys the enzyme lipase which breaks down fats.
So, if you’re struggling with extra weight that just won’t go away
this may be a cause of it.
Additionally, coffee is highly acidic and the body must find a way to
neutralize the high acid before elimination. It will even rob the
bones of calcium to reduce the acidity. Excess acids can end up
stored in the body just like the undigested fats.
The health effects of caffeine occur in even organic decaf coffee. You have to deal with both the stimulant effect and the high acidity. Give your body some alkaline greens instead.
Any time you want to make a change, focus on what you are adding to
your life, the great good you are giving yourself.
And you may discover a powerful new way to make lifestyle changes for the better.
