Caffeine - Good, Bad or Indifferent???
Hi, I'm not new to low carb, and am currently working pretty much the Atkins plan. I know he was against caffeine, I think his reasons were it messes with your blood sugar and causes cravings.
I am a massive caffeine junkie at times (usually when i'm burning the candle at both ends) - for quite a while now tho, I've been managing half-caf ok...I have two big cups of half-caffeinated/half-regular coffee in the mornings. I LOVE GOOD COFFEE, AND DECAF JUST HAS A NASTY FLAVOR & WON'T DO. Half caf is the best i can do.
What are YOUR experiences/opinions/information regarding the EFFECTS OF CAFFEINE WHILE ON A LOW CARB PLAN?
Thanks
