Green tea wake y'all up like coffee in the AM? Anything else? Coffee is starting to give me stomach issues more so than the normal rumble guts

I quit caffeine for a while for the same reasons. I would have a glass of apple juice in the morning for a pick me up.

Cocaine
Adderall

Snort a line if either of those in the morning to wake you up. Do small bumps throught the day to keep you going

I'm down to one cup a day because of the same reason plus I couldn't sleep at night. It was a long road back from like 4 or 5

Drink orange juice after brushing your teeth. Should wake you up quite nicely.

Advocare Spark is a healthy alternative with plenty caffeine.

It isn't cheap by any means, but it is half as much as red bull and is a good place to start if you want to cut sugar..

You can also easily drink it before cardio and it sits very light so to speak.. I drink coffee in the a.m. then spark after lunch / afternoon..

Washing down corn dogs with a pot of coffee is an obvious recipe for disaster.

I'd shite an antebellum table leg if I did that every day.

I thought advocare was a pyramid scheme

There are plenty of people that "sell" it to use it, so they aren't really trying to profit off if it.

Advocare sponsors Bowl games, NASCAR races etc.. It isn't snake oil. Well, some of their other shite may be but the Spark is just an energy drink w a few vitamins. .

Thanks for the responses.

And Shane we must be getting old because it keeps me up too. I dido had it tone back on the boldness.

Gonna look into advocare as long as I can avoid a sales presentation.

Fruit punch flavor is the GOAT.. Just tell them you want spark and don't give a frick about the other shite.

I tried it this morning and it didn't wake me up.

I work out in the mornings so I need some sort of energy boost otherwise I yawn my way through the entire workout and also want to kill myself.

wife used to drink diet cokes in the morning for her caffeine fix. That seemed to work fine.

if you eat healthy and take care of yourself you won't need coffee
