Finding Alternatives To Coffee

Mind is All

Many people do not care for coffee, and there are many different reasons for this; some people simply do not like the way coffee tastes; for others, it is the caffeine content that they do not like; and for some, they don't like the way coffee affects them. If you are not wanting to drink coffee yourself, but are still wanting a bit of an energy boost each day, it helps to be aware of some of the alternatives to coffee.

If the caffeine content in coffee is too high, and this is the reason you wish to avoid it, tea is a great alternative to try. Tea is a nice, hot drink for those afternoons when your friends are drinking coffee, but the caffeine content is much lower. In fact, you even have the choice between green tea and black tea when it comes to tea - the former of which has less caffeine, and the latter of which has more.

If the reason you do not like coffee is because of the taste, rather than because of the caffeine content, energy drinks just might be the right choice for you. For most people, Red Bull is the most effective energy drink available, and you can even get sugar-free Red Bull if you want to avoid the sugar. In fact, sugar-free Red Bull works even better than regular Red Bull, as it does not open you up to the "sugar crash" that regular Red Bull can.

And of course, in order to avoid both the high caffeine content and the sugar crash, you can try Five Hour Energy. Five Hour Energy - unlike both Red Bull and (for some people) coffee - will not give you a sudden burst of energy if you are on the verge of sleep. But with Five Hour Energy, you will feel more alert and awake for hours if you take it on a regular, sluggish afternoon - and you will feel this way without feeling like you have taken anything at all!

There are available alternatives to coffee for every different reason a person might have for not wanting to drink coffee. If you have been thinking about trying to stay away from coffee yourself, check out these three alternatives; you just might find that one of them is a perfect fit for you!
