Confessions of a Coffee Addict: Why I Won’t Quit (And That’s OK)

Hello, my name is Ella, and I am a coffee addict. 🙈

All jokes aside, coffee is single-handedly responsible for my survival in grad school. I depend on it to wake me up in the morning and help me focus when I have particularly long projects or papers to write (looking at you, my 10,000,000-page never-ending dissertation!).

I wouldn’t be able to accomplish as much in life without coffee!

But honestly? Sometimes, I get jittery, I experience slumps, and get headaches after the initial caffeine high. The negative effects of my coffee addiction have even made me consider quitting coffee entirely, but since adding The Good Stuff™ from For Wellness™, I haven’t had to worry about my health and coffee addiction being at odds with one another.

Adding The Good Stuff™ to my daily coffee has meant that I’m now confident that my coffee habit is a healthy part of my busy daily routine and here’s why:

With For Wellness, you don’t get that coffee slump

I honestly can’t even count the number of times I’ve tried to switch to tea to prevent the coffee slump that hits me later in the day. One of my favorite things about The Good Stuff™ is that I don’t have to give up my coffee addiction to get rid of the slump!

The Good Stuff™ has an amino acid called L-Theanine that smooths out coffee jitters which means you get a more stable, sustained source of energy over a longer period of time.

It’s an all-in-one solution perfect for my busy lifestyle

I have already tried to add nearly all of the ingredients in The Good Stuff™ to my wellness routine - without much success. Collagen for skin and nail health? Check. Himalayan salt for hydration?

Check. L-theanine to reduce caffeine jitters? Also, check. The Good Stuff™ has been a game changer because it packs all of those ingredients into one tidy package. It’s an all-in-one solution that has been perfect for me because it means I can target a bunch of my health goals in one simple habit.

I no longer have to use sugary creamers or other harmful add-ons

As much as I’m a coffee addict, I also have the taste buds of a sugar-addicted 6-year-old. 🤪 Buuuut, since adding The Good Stuff™ to my coffee, I haven’t felt the need to add any other creams or sugars because it has a nice cinnamon flavor that adds just enough kick to my coffee.

On top of that, The Good Stuff™ is lactose-free, gluten-free, and doesn’t have any GMOs or preservatives, meaning I can feel super confident about adding flavor to my coffee without adding any of the bad stuff.

The ingredients are literally why it's called the Good Stuff! If you don't believe me...

  • C8 MCT Oil: the most ketogenic MCT (medium-chain triglyceride), which is a healthy fat found in coconut oil. It boosts your metabolism, boosts energy and endurance, and supports mental focus and clarity.
  • Collagen: collagen is great for skin, hair, bones, and muscles. Not only can it help with joint mobility, but it can also reduce inflammation throughout the body. Another added benefit is that it helps build strength and muscle mass.
  • L-Theanine: this is an amino acid that comes from green tea. It smooths out the effects of caffeine and is said to boost brain chemicals that are calming, which makes it great for stress.
  • Himalayan Pink Salt: not only does the salt cut the acidity in coffee, but it can also promote hydration by helping you keep a good fluid balance.

It’s easy to stack onto my existing habits

Usually, if I want to incorporate a healthy meal or add an extra supplement to my routine, it involves quite some discipline and time to get it into my routine. Adding The Good Stuff™ to my already existing coffee habit? Literally seamless.

Instead of having to establish a new habit, I can easily throw a scoop of The Good Stuff™ into my coffee, stacking it onto an existing habit, which clears my mind to focus on other things!

I highly recommend you try For Wellness today!

The Good Stuff™ has been an amazing addition to my everyday wellness routine as a busy grad student.

Prioritizing my health in the midst of trying to finish a Ph.D. is challenging at best, but For Wellness has eliminated a lot of those barriers and has made it easy for me to prioritize my health without needing to kick my coffee addiction!
