Coffee. Love it or hate it?

There once was a time not too long ago when I had crystal clear vision and even levels of relatively high energy throughout the day.  Absolutely no trouble sleeping, and no trouble waking up. This is me on no coffee.

But you see, my mornings are never complete without a cuppa, so this state of ‘perfection’ is really not sustainable for extended periods of time.  Believe me, I’ve tried.

However my sleeping pattern has been really wacky as of late and along with that comes a fuzzy brain and a roller coaster of cravings + energy highs/lows throughout the day. This is me on coffee. Even if it’s just one cup a day :'(

So I’m switching to plain old Lipton tea this week until I get my zen back.  (Decaf just makes me sad).

Here’s an infographic I found about the pros and cons of coffee.  The pros are quite amazing as you can see but I’m taking those with a grain of salt.  I’ve read before that studies like these are funded by coffee makers as a marketing strategy.

What do you think? Are you team coffee?
