Re: O/T for T caffiene withdrawl

the biggest withdrawal symptom for me has always been an intense frontal lobe headache, much worse than i ever got with iodine. it comes from the blood vessels expanding from being constricted by the caffeine. doing so much Iodine has lessened this effect in me so that this last time i quit coffee, i got no withdrawal at all.

if you want a crutch, i suggest a good organic chocolate, 70% cacao content or better. there are many fine choices out there. try them all. i find lindt excellence ecuador 75% intense dark extra fine dark chocolate a very nice flavor and texture. its not organic, but it is worth trying as a very fine example of the art. i usually get black and green organic. you can also just get the organic cacao nibs. they are good for you in many ways. the trick with coffee and cacao, for me, is to avoid mixing with dairy, which it takes to like a duck to water.
