Most negative effects of caffeine are not necessarily a concern for the occasional user, but do occur with regular use of over 100 mg daily, also depending on the individual’s sensitivities. Being a stimulant, caffeine impacts the adrenal glands (our stress glands) and overtime even leading them to exhaustion, especially when already run down by everyday stressors. It also damages vitamin B, the nerve-building vitamin needed to help us handle stress, it acts as a diuretic-removing precious water from the body and brain, it has been linked to osteoporosis and kidney stones due to one of its compounds, oxalic acid (present in both regular and decaffeinated coffee). Other depleted nutrients that need replenishing during average coffee use are: thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), pyridoxine (B6), vitamin C, potassium, magnesium, to a lesser degree zinc, iron, calcium, and the trace minerals. Anyone with a regular caffeine habit should seriously consider discontinuing its use and in an addiction possibility, give it up completely; as anything that causes addiction, caffeine can lead to negative effects on the body, mind, and overall quality of life. The people who feel they cannot properly function without caffeine and believe they must consume it on a daily basis are addicted. The best way to approach a caffeine detox program is by first strengthening your adrenal glands (stress glands) that have been over stimulated during your caffeinated time, in order to easier manage the change, then by following a good nutritional cleansing program that will get rid of any extra toxicity in your body while supplying the needed nutrients for this job. Gradually replacing the caffeinated coffee with grain “coffees” (coffee substitutes) can be both helpful and emotionally welcoming by allowing you to maintain the same coffee-drinking social habits. The pleasures of coffee and tea drinking are as much a cultural phenomenon as they are a taste preference. Remember: habits are developed, not inherent, and anything we learn, we can also un-learn or re-learn.
