Yes, believe the title: I am coffee free for months now. And that’s a cup of Earl Grey with milk.
Ok, ok. I had coffee in Russia. That was in between my homeopathy courses. Thankfully I had no reverse effect.
What moved me to give up my most favorite drink? Those of you who know me also know that I drank coffee almost literally by gallons. So… where do I start?
In February this year I had my first and the most horrible asthma attack. I’ve been suffering respiratory allergies for over half my life and finally the antihistamines betrayed me.
I ended up on IV for the most part of that day. Then for 3 weeks on Western and Chinese medicine.
Not fancying the future of taking 5-6 different meds for the rest of my life, I decided to give a shot to homeopathy. Something that had been working for my daughter’s alopecia and that I was hesitant to give up because I was too attached to… coffee.
Nevertheless, it’s been 7 months since I started it and I’ve been able to fully control every slight sign of bronchospasms as well as today is the first time in 6 months I am sick and first time in over a year I have a fever.
So, dear coffee lovers, my health is what I treasure hence I only go to Starbucks now to smell the coffee.
Take care, stay healthy!
Yours truly,
Former coffee addict.

Wow, good for you! That must be hard to do, but it helps to have such great results. So sorry to hear that you had been having these health problems but glad you are getting some relief! I use homeopathy, and it has really worked well for me.

Thank you!!! It wasn’t hard in a physical sense – I can go off coffee any time. However I just miss it.
I agree – homeopathy is great and I love how it has no side effects!

Coffee is one weakness that I cannot imagine giving up, but I am glad to hear that homeopathy and life without coffee work for you. Stay healthy!
