COPING WITH COFFEE ADDICTIONzzzz


Exams.  Coffee. Staying up all through the  night.
The three words are synonymous.

We all know excess coffee is bad, and staying up through the night has adverse effects.
 But we still do it - cause we're stuck - and we have to push ourselves. .

Coffee also gives you a mild positive 'high'. 
Yes, that's why the whole world goes the coffee way, once exams are on.
 

Drinking coffee 2 hours before the exams to stay alert is a good idea, especially if you've been burning the midnight oil.
 It increases alertness and also boosts energy levels.
I am pretty sure the Fresh and honest coffee shots help us or the nescafe coffee works it magic in keeping us awake and alert..
You may hear that people study better while drinking coffee.
 Coffee is a stimulant and can make you feel more alert, but it can reduce your concentration and make you irritable if you take more than you usually do.
 Coffee can keep you awake, and you need to sleep and relax to cope with the extra work.

But of course all these great benefits are when you don't go overboard.
 So how much is the right amount??


  COPING WITH COFFEE ADDICTIONzzzz

Coffee Alternatives 
So if you're going to be having lots of coffee - go for instant coffee. Or better still, these days you get de-caffeinated coffee in the market. So if you are one of those ten cups a day types - de-caffeinated coffee is just what you need.
 

But if you are the kinds who MUST have brewed coffee - then make milk coffee. Use just milk and no water - add your coffee to that, and brew - this will reduce caffeine content. 

Tea Break 

  Then of course we have tea - the perfect substitute to coffee. 
It is therefore a healthier option and a better stimulant.
For the health freaks- Switch to GREEN tea, it can help you burn fat, and its a great anti-oxidant.


It would also be a good idea to rotate with some other healthy options, as bournvita, hot chocolate, horlicks or complan. If you hate milk you can try horlicks or hot chocolate with hot water. 


Water- The Elixir
Don't forget the elixir of life - water during these exam days. 
In fact you should try and drink a cup of water for every cup of coffee. Water will also somewhat decrease your desire for coffee. 



I hope that these alternatives help you reduce your stress levels and keep you healthy during exams. 
Herez me, wishing GOOD Luck to all. 
Give your best guys & Rock this sessional!!!
