I was advised recently that my relatively high caffeine intake (relative, that is, to someone who drinks less than 2-3 cups of strong coffee per day) could be contributing to my anxiety, poor sleep etc.* and have decided to reduce my consumption to a single cup of caffeinated coffee in the morning and then a cup of two of decaffeinated coffee later in the day if I feel like it (ground coffee, brewed in a french press if that makes any difference).
So far I've not noticed any real difference although it's only been about 5/6 days. I'm wondering if I would be better off eliminating caffeine altogether for a while instead or if reducing my intake and 'weaning myself off' caffeine would be a better approach.
Anyone here have any experiences or insight into going caffeine free for health reasons?
*I'm still putting it down to the global pandemic but I'm willing to try more or less anything if it'll help.
