It’s been a couple of months since I started detoxing from caffeine, and I wanted to share how it’s been going. For most of last year, my mornings started with a can of Celsius — my favorite energy drink brand — and usually didn’t end there. At work, caffeine is everywhere. Cold teas, sodas, and even decaf from Bilgewater (Riot’s campus version of Starbucks). I’d often grab one or two more throughout the day.
Caffeine was just part of my routine. About 200mg every morning to kick things off, then whatever I felt like grabbing later in the day. Before Celsius, it was regular coffee, or the occasional Red Bull. It became normal. Almost invisible.
