 I've decided to quit coffee for two weeks and here is what happened Hey, what's up, Greg here the founder of your own inception welcome to my channel If you want to achieve limitless performance then subscribe below to start a journey. Yeah, I decided to quit coffee for two weeks And today I want to share this experience with you I want to talk about what happened why I did it What are the benefits the side effects you can expect from doing this courageous decision or making it and at the end I will tell you also if you want to quit coffee as well how to do it in the best way possible So you don't suffer from the side effects that come with it So if you're ready, let's just begin now I've been drinking coffee for the past probably like seven eight years something like that And I really love coffee. I love the smell of it. I like the taste of it I like experimenting with coffee. I make bulletproof coffee. I you know prepared in different ways I bought a school and espresso machine I made different types of coffee like a Turkish way like I like the grease How would people do it in Greece and so on so I'm a big fan of drinking coffee. I'm not an expert, but yeah I really love it and one of the reasons I like it so much is because I really Love the benefits that you can get from drinking coffee and because of the caffeine that a coffee has But recently I started noticing some very weird stuff going on with me So after a couple of days of hard work, I Gradually increased the amount of coffee I was drinking during the day So I went from one coffee on one day to probably three in four coffees on Thursday and Friday and After a couple of weeks actually after two weeks of doing that What happened was I had a very severe crash and this crash repeated like every two weeks approximately So whenever I increase the dosage of coffee to three to four coffees per day I actually noticed that my body was just shutting down the I got this, you know severe crash I had some severe side effects like brain fog like Jerry like, you know, my heart was You know going wild and at first I wasn't really sure this is connected to coffee But then you know, I experimented a bit. I tried different things. I Optimized my daily habits and I figured out. Yeah, it was probably the coffee making those issues So as a consequence, I made this courageous decision and decided to quit drinking it for just two weeks and see what happens Now just before I tell you my experience I just want to tell you that we probably know about but if you don't coffee is a very powerful stimulant It is the most widely used stimulant in the world and while it is a very Effective energy booster it increases your attention It increases your energy and it provides a lot of antioxidants at the same time It can be quite dangerous if you over-drink it because you get dependent to it And by doing that, I mean you cannot Saturday without a cup of coffee And all of a sudden you're drinking two three four five cups of coffee per day And then you know, you're gonna get this massive crushed it, you know, quite often people talk about So yeah, you have to look at the caffeine that you get with coffee as a pretty strong Stimulant, it's not just like, you know a random thing that kind of makes you feel better But it's quite a strong stimulant. So you have to be careful with it So when I decided to quit coffee, um, I thought that was gonna be an easy task I mean what like two weeks without coffee. That's like nothing I can easily do it and honestly in the beginning. Yeah, it was quite easy Well kind of but then after two to three days without coffee. I mean, yeah I start to feel like shit, you know, I couldn't focus. I Was really unmotivated in the morning I had no energy like I usually had this routine in the morning Which included drinking cup of coffee, but then, you know, there was no coffee anymore and I switched it to tea Obviously I put in this. This is one of my favorite cups And I put tea in it to kind of a trick my mind. Obviously it didn't work I mean why did I expect? But anyway, yeah, I try a lot of things and after the first couple of days Really, you know, wasn't feeling well and I was starting to get worried like where this is leading to and and why am I so am I so Dependent to coffee. I mean, that's that's insane. I wasn't I wasn't aware of that before but after a couple of days So it was I think after a week or something Yeah, there were all the problems were gone basically when I woke up. I felt very motivated. I felt energized I kind of I didn't miss my I mean, honestly, I missed my cup of coffee because of the taste and the smell But I felt pretty good without it. I was definitely much more energized Also during the day, I felt much more energized also like after like eating a meal or something, you know I didn't have this typical need for a coffee and that was quite Encouraging basically I was quite positively surprised so after like seven to ten days all the side effects like the jittery the brain fog the lack of motivation and energy were gone and I felt extremely well and you know from day to day after like 15 days and you know just before I Drank my first cup of coffee again. Um, I was just feeling better and better and better And I was really shocked that um, you can feel so good even without, you know, your daily caffeine dose So yeah, and after the 20-day period, I didn't need my coffee anymore I didn't even think about it when I passed on coffee shops. Yeah, of course, I I Saw people drinking coffee. I smelled it and I you know, I some of the memories got back But the part of that, you know, I really didn't need it to be focused to have energy to be in a great mood Yeah, that was quite a positive thing. So look if you are suffering right now at this moment Like if you think you're dependent to drinking coffee if you cannot start working in the morning without a cup of coffee Then you probably are dependent and in this case, I would definitely recommend you making a two week detox from caffeine Not because coffee is harming you in any way like it's not really harmful But you're gonna feel so much better if you can do this now the best way to do it That's in my opinion is that you find an alternative to drinking coffee something that will Not smell and look like coffee But it will provide some of the benefits that coffee provides without the side effects in my opinion The best option is drinking Jiromata tea. You can find more information below about this amazing South American tea I switched to take like immediately. I drank like two to three cups of Jiromata every day It does contain some caffeine So keep that in mind, but very low amount and after like one week I switched to green tea I had a pretty strong green tea which again It contains a little bit of caffeine, but they're like a very little amount So there's nothing to worry about and you know, if you do this what's gonna happen is Yeah, you can expect to have a mild crash at the beginning This crash will probably include some kind of brain fog some kind of loss of motivation You won't be in such a good mood in the morning But as soon as you change this as soon as your body kind of gets rid of you know, all the caffeine that's hiding in it What's gonna happen is you'll regain your energy. You'll regain your focus You will regain your motivation and as soon as you do this as soon as you find like an Alternative that you can drink in the morning that is part of your daily habit your brain will get revived That's how I call it usually And it will kind of figure out okay now when I drink this cup of tea I need to perform before it was coffee now It's tea. That's fine. Okay, I can do it So yeah, you should you know kind of a feel much better in about a week ten days Something like that and what you're gonna figure out is you know with coffee You get this spike of energy and then the crash follows if you drink bulletproof coffee This is a coffee with MCT oil and some people put butter in it. I try to avoid butter But anyway, so what happens is that you have constantly those Spikes of energy and then crash falls a spike and crush After you kind of a get rid of coffee for like 10 15 days You don't have the spikes obviously and they're no crushes obviously, but your baseline of energy increases Okay, so you have more energy by default at least that's what I feel and I you know checked some other people doing the same thing What were their experiences and they kind of you know talked about exactly the same thing Sure, you're gonna still miss and if you love drinking coffee I mean you're gonna still miss the taste and the smell and stuff and I'm not telling you to start drinking coffee Forever, but you know just making such a detox every now and then can be very beneficial By the way guys, if you like this video, please press the like button below So the question is what did you after two weeks of drinking no coffee all it kind of depends on how you feel Now what I did is I drink one cup of coffee per day During the week so from Monday to Friday, and I try to avoid any kind of coffee during the weekend That's kind of a my strategy that I'm trying right now It works really well because I still get a lot of the benefits from drinking coffee And the crashes that I usually got are like non-existent at this moment Especially if I add some amp-sity oil to it. So if I prepare the bulletproof coffee So that's one thing you can do so you can by detoxing your body You can kind of a decrease the amount of caffeine You will basically need in the future on a daily basis to operate on how you want to operate So you can still drink your cup of coffee because you like the taste obviously and by avoiding coffee during the weekend You kind of make you know this weekly detox. I would call it the weekend coffee detox, you know And yeah after a while you will feel much better You will have more focus more energy the the spikes of energy won't be so so, you know It won't be so high and you know when the crash happens It's gonna be pre-mile crash if it's going to happen And I can imagine you can do this for weeks and weeks and maybe months, you know without having to do a longer detox So yeah, that's what you can do and I think you're gonna be very happy about it Once you go through it.
