Gave up coffee ...

It is. I heard it on the TV too. That's it corroborated.

I dont have any. I heard this when I was listening to a discussion on tv.

Was it on Jeremy Kyle?

Naturally Decaffeinated coffee is fine. No chemicals. If the OP wants to give up coffee but is getting constipation then try introducing the coffee in the other end - coffee enemas - that will get "movement" !

Some research trials actually proved it was too painful for some people to give. On average it takes 9 weeks for withdrawal symptoms to fade.....9 farking weeks of hell.

When I wanted to reduce my caffeine consumption, I just set a cut off point (for me midday) when I'd start drinking caffeine-free drinks instead of coffee/tea.

Red bush tea / rooibos is what I mostly drink.

I recommend peppermint tea for anyone cutting down on tea or coffee. Very refreshing.
