Caffeine Alternative

automaticgirls · 2023-02-08T02:50:21+00:00

Caffeine made me nauseated, even with food, when I was initially pregnant. Is that a possibility for you?

Lemon water and a pinch of salt works well for me when I can't handle caffeine and need a bit of energy, and peppermint tea for the morning ritual. Do you need a caffeinated drink, or is it just from habit? You can go without, but it will feel difficult because there is built tolerance and withdrawal, but you will eventually get to a point where you don't need the hit just to get the day started.

Do you have signs of adhd so your using caffine instead? i was caffeine dependent before treatment, just wondering.

Try the ask doc’s or supplements sub. I also get super sick from caffeine, specifically coffee. A few weeks ago I was violently nauseous just from a cup early in the morning - it was sickening 🤢 My system is just really sensitive to coffee and energy drinks for some reason.

As for the tea, are you sure it’s not the tannins? Some teas have tannins, which can make you sick (nauseous) if you drink without eating or the tea is heavy on tannins.

Try making sure your hydrated and ate breakfast with healthy fats. This will give you long lasting energy

Healthy fats: avocado Olive oil Nuts peanut butter

Can add carbs (not too much because carbs can make you sleepy)

Tannins from tea and red wine make me violently sick. For me it's plain coffee, energy drinks, and electrolytes. 👍🏻 A caffeine alternative is Guarana which is a natural stimulant.

Dandelion root. And so good for your liver.

My husband liked the mushroom coffees that are on the market, they’re supposed to be better for you and less caffeine.

Title: Caffeine Alternative

Full text: I'm not sure if this is the place to ask.

I'm currently sitting with a trash bag and water instead of putting laundry away like I was trying to do. Why? Because I feel INTENSELY sick after having caffeine.

I can usually have caffeinated drinks as long as I have something to eat as well, but recently, even if I eat something, I still feel super sick (like right now).

I can't do anything. It's awful.

So I'm asking, for those of you who have this problem, what are your alternatives? It gets like this for EVERY caffeinated drink. Tea, coffee, little squeezes, energy drinks. I don't know what to do.

Help!

see if you can get a zofran prescription from your healthcare provider for persistent nausea, and drink teas with lower amounts of caffeine (green tea, yerba mate). if you’re on any medications, that could be a factor to discuss with your prescriber

edit: I realized you're now asking if you have morning sickness.

I forgot the actual recipe but it has to do with lions mane. It has no caffeine but it energizes the brain just like it.

I just recently started drinking cacao shell tea. It’s delicious. The brand I’m drinking is from Lydgate Farms in Hawaii.

I just take a caffeine pill in the morning. My body goes through phases of being a traitor and refusing coffee and that helps 😂🙄

Rooibos tea has no caffeine and is similar in taste to black tea. I normally don't like herbal or "fake" teas, but rooibos is remarkably close to the real thing, minus caffeine.

Cocoa powder is a good alternative for me. It doesn't have much fat and carbs and its unsweetened as well. It tastes really good with hot water.
