Well, Im trying to lay off the coffee (i was told to do so by a doc about a month ago, and i've so far neglected to do so) but, would tea be a good substitute, and does decaff. taste the same?
-
Coffee or tea?
-
Tea should be a good substitute, though if your doc is concerned about caffeine, tea ha caffeine (depending on the tea) but a lower dose. Go with Green Tea, great hot or chilled and has a lot of antioxidants.
-
yeah I prefer green tead but that is all. I just need some water or some milk, and I am all set.
-
i drink apple tea, its really yummybeing a brit i prefer tea anyways
-
I never found a tea I could stand an decaf ? thats fucking blasmephy !fbetter to quit then to drink decaf, I would quit myself but if I did fhundreds of people would die when the coffee bean importer stopped buying so much from them since the sales dropped inth US so much. I keep drinking coffee to make sure that peope continue to live and are able to sell thier beans.I pay toomuch money for my coffee and buy a house blend at the local shop. Its a bit of heaven to smell the bastards as the coffee grinder spits thier shattered frozen hulks into the bowl and that rich rich aroma drifts up to my nose and infatuates my brain.Fuck, fIm writing this as the first pot is brewing, now Ill have to wait another 3 minutes to finish and Iv already made myself desperate to have that warm brown liquid wash over my gut in hot waves.

Funny, I just went to a talk today given by a doctor. She said coffee actually does have antioxidents, but it is better to drink tea. Black, green or white teas are the best.
-
I love tea, I have a cuppa every morning and every evening. Love it to bits I do! Altho I have it with milk and lots of sugar, so drinking my tea might not help your caffeine problem. :grin:
-
MmM Green tea is great.. I get my daily dosage of Tim Hortons at school every day. Its great and really good for you.
-
well, if I had to give up hot black coffee at this point in my stupid life... it's walk in front of the bus time!
however, I'll go through several pots of green tea sitting with friends in a Chinese or Japanese restaraunt -
Any kind of tea is nice. Coffee is only necessary when I've early morning math lessons :P
-
http://www.coffeescience.org/Its all the good things about coffee, but, the whole thing with my doc is because of my lack of sleep (i topped out at 3 hours for about a week) and my addiction.
-
You slept only 3 hours in a week??? Thats crazy!!!
-
thats what they keep telling me, steve suggests i go to a sleep lab and get tested lmao
-

-

-
I'm a bit of a tea drinker myself.
My favorite is just plain old black tea, like Lipton, and decaf.
Yummy.
