Alcohol is much worse than caffeine. Jus to make it clear for people who avoid caffeine and drink alcohol.

If you feel like drinking alcohol, just drink sugar / caffeine. It's a trick... Both are psychoactive but caffeine won't change your state of concioussnes like alcohol.

Alcohol makes you useless because it changes your state of consciousness and it's not gonna work in our world.

And your liver becomes useless too because alcohol must be processed first. Otherwise you'd die.

With caffeine it's not a poison.

Alcohol is more like a drug while caffeine is more like a supplement.

I can beat a horse to death too after it.

Not much a cup in the morning and a cup in the evening.

I’m on approximately 200 mg/day. Somehow, I still can’t seem to stay awake. I can’t take power naps either as I just end up sleeping for real.

What about you? What’s your caffeine intake like?

I gave up coffee recently, but I still drink tea. It apparently still has a fair amount of caffeine, but some sources say that less caffeine leaks out into the tea when you brew.

I definitely notice a BIG difference between a cup of tea vs an espresso.

I can go a day or 2 without any tea and I don't feel anything, but when I was drinking coffee I couldn't go more than half a day without getting a caffeine headache.

With tea I don't feel like I need anything in the morning either, nor do I ever feel tired. There's definitely something different about tea. It's black tea with milk too, not herbal/green.


If you can't stay awake then you need to work on your diet/health/sleep. Caffeine is not meant to keep you awake, it's meant to give you a cognitive boost.

I personally eat a carnivore diet. I only eat fatty steak, lamb and some vintage cheese. Goat kefir too. Switching to carnivore got rid of all my health issues. No headaches or joint issues from spending too long at a computer. That's why I stopped coffee, I just naturally stopped drinking it as I didn't feel I needed it anymore.

If we weren't all poor we would do the same.

Work 12 hours a day at $5 an hour (not USA), you won't care about anything other than sleep and making it next day (more coffee).

Yeah, you need a ton of caffeine to get cognitive boost constantly.

Use it every 2 - 4 days and you'll have much less caffeine and bigger cognitive boost.

It depends on your size and how much you eat. If you're a big guy and train a lot you'll need to eat a lot of beef.

I'm not that big. I'm 80kg and 175cm, so I only eat about 800g to 1kg of rib-eye per day. Sometimes I do a 48 hour fast. I'm in the middle of one just now. It's good for losing fat. You still need to eat less to lose fat, although you won't put on fat if you eat a high fat diet. Well, unless you're very overweight, you will lose a lot on carnivore, but to go from 15-18% body fat to 8% you need to eat less for a while or do some 48 hour fasts once a week or twice a month.

The regular rib-eye's I eat are about $14 per steak. I eat 2 per day usually. Some days 3 if I'm working out a lot. Goat's kefir is about $2-$3 per day. The cheese is about $1 per day max. All in its about $800 to $1000 per month. It's far less than I used to spend before carnivore though. I'd spend $3k/mo with uber eats before.

The wagyu steaks are a bit more, they're like $20-$25, but I only get those when they're good. Unfortunately 80% of them aren't that fatty so I don't bother. The tastiest are the argentinian entrecotes(rib-eye).

That's how they looked before and after cooking. They are incredible. I cook them in beef tallow to crisp them on the outside and render the fats.

Damn, this was not a good topic of conversation 24 hours into a 48 hour fast!

The cognitive boost I get once I eat 700g pork / beef + extra sauce for taste + caffeine, I can't describe it.

It's crazy. One kilo of meat a day is a crazy diet for gains. It's up to 220g protein + extra good fat. Animal fat is less inflammatory than plant fat.

Any day it's better to choose extra protein over carbohydrates.

Yes, it's unbelievable. Carbs, vegetables, fruit and such crap are bad for the body. Fatty animal products allow you to function at a different level in terms of intelligence, memory, focus and energy.

Fatty beef + NAC + glycine + noopept + nicotine + vinpocetine is my stack.

When I want the highest boost I take the nicotine, vinpocetine, noopept and ginseng at the same time and my brain goes into overdrive. I can see and rotate complex objects in 3D in my head. Fold, rotate, unfold etc.

dual n-back training for 10 mins every night too.

It made me laugh. I know what you're talking about.

Nicotine I wouldn't think about it as it's mostly cigarettes and smokes related, but maybe it's some hack.

What's important, it doesn't work so well if you're a teenager. You need to be adult for it.

I'll check out the training.

A whole lot of Red Bulls, need to quit that shit it's an absolute terror for your health.

Nicotine doesn't have anything to do with smoking

It's very good for your brain. It's neuroprotective and it's not addictive either. It's only addictive when smoked because you get a short high hit of it. When ingested you get a smooth 30-60 minute cognitive boost.

Niquitin transparent, 21 mg/24 h, transdermal patch 114 mg, grade 1, patches, 7 pcs.

It's recommended for people who want to stop smoking.

Well, I thought about it about 10 years ago when I was researching nootropics. But thought it's kinda absurd. Maybe I'll try it soon.

I don't lke patches.. It's a bit weird.

These are small mints you suck. They disolve in your mouth over the course of 10-12 mins.

Alex Hormozi is a big fan of nicotine. He chews nicotine gum all day. I prefer the disolvable mints though to gum.

21mg is a lot though..

I take between 5 and 8 of these per day. Sometimes I break in half. You don't need that much nicotine for the benefits. You get an instant focus/sharpness from it. It's very pronounced.

This is key.

I do about 95 percent carnivore and let me tell you it pretty much reversed my asthma, chronic social anxiety, depression & it generally makes me feel energised & motivated.

About 3 years carnivore here and I used to have the occasional "cheat day" in the past.

Absolutely insane stuff.

Granted I still have coffee with cream in and the zero sugar energy drinks which I'm looking to drop. But being a caffeine addict I'm going slowly, lol.

X3 bar (variable resistance training) + carnivore is insane.

By the way, if you're interested in the carnivore diet id recommend following a guy on YouTube called Professor Bart Kay.

His knowledge is unparalleled in that sphere. I watch him everyday tbh.

Earlier I was doing 6 cups of Tea per day but since few weeks passed I am down to 2 cups of Tea per day.

Try 6 times a week. Enjoy recovery from it.

If you do properly, you'll get strong relax feeling like after running for hours as a kid.

You can do it as you're 24 and I am 25.

One session lighter, another heavier. It's just pump, pump, pump.

Just make sure to use safety bars on bench press and trick is to warmup progressively, add 10 - 20 kg for each warm-up set until you reach the optimal weight, then do one super heavy set and BOOM, the nervous system is in INSANE state.

That's one way to do it... there's plenty more.

But this one gets you to do insane volume just adding weight to the bar until you reach extreme weight.

What's important, the gym has to be completely empty, so nobody makes you run faster and you can control every fcking thing.

Since you're lifting heavy stuff, your IQ during that time undeniably drops to the left side - below 100 (for me that's from left side to monkey mode). And you have to make the place as calm as possible and as empty as possible. People usually don't practice this type of traning in groups as any distraction can destroy whole rythm.

Don't do that if you want to lose weight lol. Only do it if you do classic massive clean bulking or maintain weight.

I drink 2 glasses a day, morning and noon. It helps me stay alert to do everything.

I usually drink a large cup in the morning. It's great to start the work day

It's my favorite drink. I usually spend 30 minutes in the morning enjoying a cup of coffee.

I think 25 mg/day.
