Coffee Alternatives Without the Jitters

7/28/2016

Most people drink coffee for the morning pick-me-up, but if you are wanting to cut down on your jitters or just your caffeine intake, you have choices.
  • Herbal coffees are an option, such as Teeccino.  It contains no caffeine, but it may provide a natural alertness.  Its main ingredient is chicory root.  People who are trying to give up coffee for health reasons often turn to Teeccino.  It tastes a lot like coffee, but a little sweet and smoky.  It contains heart-healthy potassium and inulin that helps aid digestion.  Teeccino is safe for even kids to drink and comes in a variety of flavors.
  • Yerba Mate is made of South American holly tree leaves.  You can find it in brands such as Guayaki, which a very environmentally friendly company that is focused on restoring the rain forests.  Guayaki has less than half the caffeine of coffee.  Its flavor is very herbal.  It has high levels of antioxidants and heart-healthy potassium.
  • Matcha is made of green-tea leaves ground into powder.  It also contains about half the amount of caffeine of coffee.  It tastes similar to steeped green tea, but has more of a kick.  It has about three times the antioxidants of bagged tea, giving you extra protection from heart disease and cancer.
