Over the past two decades I have been a heavy coffee/tea drinker.
I think I have been deluding myself that caffeine is fine and productive so long I don’t take sugar a long with it.
First Issue is that it always messes my teeth up.
A more serious issue is that I think it messes up my nervous system. While I have no proof for this, I had a first episode of panic attack/ventilation in my life. Because I never had a panic attack in my life I thought of something worse is happening to my body. It is only when the paramedic came and they assured me it is nothing serious and asked me to relax.
I still consulted a GP immediately for a second opinion and did ECG thank god we ruled out any cardiovascular causes.
The literature on caffeine and health always seems to point towards neutral at worst, and quite often some studies claim that caffeine has positive effect on health.
But who knows how reliable and unbiased they can be? The concensus on tobacco was that it not harmful, at the start too.
After all it is a chemical substance interfering with our body.
To help me cope with the withdrawal symptoms, I am going to start to limit my intake to one cup a day first.
