I can’t even have a delicious decaf-coffee, because of how oversensitive I am to the damage that caffeine does.
( “decaf” coffee usually has about 4% of its caffeine left, ttbomk, it absolutely isn’t 0% )
As for why on earth it’d do any damage/harm, caffeine blocks-access to subtler meditations/inner-yogas.
It’s like not being able to breath: it blocks the whole category, and you never even know the category exists, until you earn access to it, through sattvic diet.
Forced to choose between delicious decaf coffee vs the meditations that are saving my health & life, … sorry coffee, bye!
I’d have to drink twice the daily recommended limit to achieve 3mg/kg. Finally I have the answer to “have I had too little or too much to be good”; I’m having too little. 😔
I doubt it. Migraine specific pain medicine often has caffeine in it. I get ocular migraines every year or so and goodies or Excedrin migraine (just a blend of nsaids, acetaminophen, and caffeine) do a good job
It’s ok! Over the years I’ve learned a lot of tricks to help me deal with them, and notice when they’re coming on. They’ve also slowed down in frequency quite a bit as I age.
Both can be true at the same time. Caffeine can help with migraines but the main reason it‘s in the meds is to speed up the effect of other substances. At the same time regular consumption of caffeine (coffee, energy drinks etc.) can lead to withdrawal symptoms and give you bad headaches more often. But we‘re all built a little different and some people have much milder caffeine withdrawals than others.
Andrew Huberman discussed the science behind caffeine and the circumstances under which it can lead to improved athletic performance. Long story short: even if you're a regular Caffeine user, taking a day or two break, and timing your caffeine intake to an hour or 90 minutes prior to performing gets the best results. I do it with Mate and my performance in sports goed through the roof
This is for sports performance, not amassing a vast porn collection and then meticulously organizing it by categories, genre, sequence, and creative title.
