Coffee Alternative Recipe
If you guessed coffee
you'd be right! It was decaf, it was a clean brand & I drank it after eating breakfast.
I drank it about 3-4 days a week for 2 weeks. My gut/stomach was a mess into week 2.
If you don't know I talk about coffee and its negative effects on the gut, hormones and mood, and not just caffeinated. That's the obvious culprit to these issues & especially anxiety.
I've done posts on this. I understand it's not a fun fat & often a trigger for many. But I can tell you if you remain open, it will make a huge impact on your health. Especially in your in perimenopause/midlife, have anxiety, gut & hormone issues.
Here's my coffee alternative recipe I've drank for the last 6 years & has allowed me to not miss coffee.
Organic ground chicory root steeped like coffee or tea. I like to add some herbal loose teas like rose petals & others. In my HC course I have the girls use their healing blend. (Part of the course & for their health needs). A healing drink that also tastes like if coffee & hot chocolate had a baby.
Use an unsweetened nut milk — I like unsweetened organic coconut milk. Even froth if you like. Add pure monk fruit sugar if you like sweet. Cinnamon or pumpkin spice for warm twist
BONUS: Chicory is also a natural prebiotic. So it’s very healthy for your gut, skin & overall health.
It’ll take a short time to turn this into your new ritual but not long. Your body (& peaceful mind) will thank you.
