Fake News!

I just about shot coffee out my nose when I read this headline!

If it's been stored since 1919 it must be a bit stale by now. Throw it away and get some fresh stuff.

I never used to drink it but I have one cup in the morning now before my workout.

Not because it's essential for life - because, according to the research and experiments (I've done myself), combined with coconut oil, it increases alertness, memory and helps me kick ass at the gym.

I drink it through a straw to prevent it from staining my teeth.

I always put some coconut oil in my coffee too - even if I don’t go to the gym anymore:/

@Haemish1

Coconut oil is a medium chain triglyceride and is still good for brain function and health, even if you don't workout.

@Athena
One doctor told me it helps your liver deal with the caffeine, and helps prevent “the shakes” if you have too much

@Haemish1

Yes. The fat slows the absorption of caffeine and also time releases it so your energy and alertness are more consistent throughout the day.

I was one of those people who didn't react well to coffee until I started adding fat; the recommended MCT and/or ghee.

If I ever skip it, there are no withdrawal symptoms, except that I miss a frothy warm beverage in the morning.

I gave up my ciggies many years ago. No way I'm giving up my morning joe without a fight!

Indeed it is essential! Lol

I will argue that it is indeed at least critical to my enjoyment of the morning.

Can’t stand the stuff. Tastes like tobacco smells to me.

Never understood the appeal of it.

Not essential? Are you mad?

absolute necessity!
