Caffeine is definitely a staple in my diet, but it's not like heroin or anything. I never get a buzz nor do I 'crash' per say. I do drink a considerable amount in a day. Coffee, sodas, an energy drink or 2, Zip Fizz (health drink powder,) etc. If I'm running low on caffeine, it's then that I actually get jittery. I also become very frustrated and irritable. So I'll make a little coffee or mix up a Zip Fizz and then I'm fine. I guess I'm not as sensitive to the drug as others maybe? I rarely get headaches and as mentioned, I don't crash. I'm sure I could go a day without it but it's just in too many products I regularly enjoy. I'm not really sure how it's harming me so I don't really have any desire to exclude it from my diet for the time being.
