Best Coffee Alternative
At Healing Arts we customize nutrition programs by using the biofeedback of your body through muscle testing. Sometimes this includes giving up coffee and/or caffeine and since we don’t want you to feel deprived we went on a hunt for the best coffee alternative because we know as much as we love tea, herbal tea just doesn’t cut it when trying to find a substitute for coffee.
Why would the body go weak on coffee? Sometimes it is the caffeine and that’s why we test for caffeine in a separate vial. Other times it is due to the acidity of the coffee or the mold that coffee contains. Yes, mold is naturally occurring in coffee. There is mold-free coffee that I highly suggest brewing yourself if coffee is allowed in your nutrition program. If I drink coffee it is Life Boost Coffee, mold and toxin free.
For coffee alternative I do like teccino which is a dark roast of chicory and barley. It comes in many different flavors and is darker than any tea so that’s why it feels close to coffee. Golden milk is a very healthy hot turmeric drink that could be another alternative. I also like Mud/wtr that is turmeric based with black tea and healthy mushrooms. You can only buy online. It’s all organic ingredients with 1/7th the caffeine as a cup of coffee. With the caffeine you get energy. With the mushrooms you get focus.
I have recently tried another coffee alternative I am in love with called Joey it comes in powder form and all you have to do is mix with hot water. The only caffeine in it comes from cacao. It’s dark like coffee because of the cacao beans. Not only does it have mushrooms in it to boost your immune system but it also has adaptogenic herbs that help with cognition and stress management. There is no jitters or crash as there can be with coffee.
Besides the cacao Joey has roasted chicory root which is good for gut health. It contains dandelion root that is liver support. It has cinnamon and cordyceps mushrooms for cognition. Lion’s mane mushrooms for focus. Reishi mushrooms for memory and L-theanine and ashwagandha for stress reduction. All of this healthy goodness in one hot cup of Joey. Roasted, full-bodied, with a blend of sweetness and spiciness... it’s not coffee, and not quite tea, but it’s something else entirely. Try it yourself at the office for $4 a cup or buy a package of 18 servings for $25.
