    I’ve heard that before. Haven’t tried it though. I had two issues with coffee: the acidity sometimes hurt my stomach and the amount of caffeine would worsen my anxiety, especially if I hadn’t slept well the night before.

      I do this as well. I can tell quickly when I’m starting to build a dependency on coffee and having grown up with boomer parents who exemplified the “don’t talk to me before I’ve had my morning coffee” trope, I never want to be in that position. I’ll have coffee a couple times a week at most. Usually black with a light roast. If it doesn’t taste good without stuff in it then IMO it isn’t worth drinking.
