Ok guys I know most of you out there can't even begin to think about starting your day without a cup of hot coffee first. Some of you even have a soda to begin your morning. The majority of you say you need the caffeine boost or you just can't get going. Well according to wikipedia caffeine is "a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant, having the effect of temporarily warding off drowsiness and restoring alertness. Beverages containing caffeine, such as coffee, tea, soft drinks, and energy drinks, enjoy great popularity. Caffeine is the world's most widely consumed psychoactive substance, but, unlike many other psychoactive substances, it is legal and unregulated in nearly all jurisdictions. In North America, 90% of adults consume caffeine daily." Yikes! While I don't personally need the pick me up to begin my daily regularly, I have experience days that I might need it. If you are among that 90% that does consume some type of caffeine on a regular try drinking black or green tea instead of that cup of coffee or soft drink. It has the same amount of caffeine, but you won't feel the crash of energy during the day. Spot of tea anyone!
