Frequently asked questions
2 Herbal Coffee
While I’ve never personally tried herbal coffee, I’ve only heard positive things about it! If you can’t get into tea and just can’t let go of your coffee, herbal coffee may be the right path for you! They’re made a bunch of natural ingredients to taste like coffee, but without the caffeine or chemicals!
3 Green Tea
Green tea and coffee both have caffeine, but green tea is so much healthier for you than coffee. Green tea has a ton of health benefits (something almost unheard of in coffee), and can even improve memory! If you like the taste and can make the switch to green tea, it’s definitely the way to go!
4 White Tea
White tea is one of the healthiest teas you can drink. There are antioxidants that slow down aging, prevent cancer, and even lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Besides these health benefits, it even can help whiten tea and keep your skin healthy! It’s not nearly as strong as other teas, so if tea is not usually your “cup of tea” this might be the route for you to go!
5 Juices
If you haven’t noticed yet, juicing is very quickly becoming the new thing. It seems like juice bars are popping up everywhere, but if you can’t find one in your neck of the woods you can make them yourself! If you don’t have a juicer, they’re relatively cheap and easy to find, and the health benefits are almost never-ending. If you find yourself forgetting to get your daily servings of fruits and vegetables, juices are an easy way to get them while also replacing coffee in your daily routine!
6 Smoothies
Smoothies, if made the right way, can be an awesome alternative drink to coffee. If you make them similar to juices, but with some ice added, you’ll have another easy way to get your daily servings of fruit and vegetables every day. To get the most health benefits out of it, be sure to add spinach, nuts, or even both!
7 Wheatgrass Shots
Wheatgrass shots are one of the healthiest drinks you can have! Wheatgrass has Vitamin C to combat illness and boosts your energy immensely. If you need a quick pick-me-up in the morning but don’t have a lot of time in the morning, try wheatgrass. It’s an acquired taste, but when you get used to it you won’t want to go back to coffee!
