Have you finally decided to give up coffee because you are worried about your blood pressure, disrupted sleep patterns, or other health concerns?
If you, like up to 20% of the population in the Western world, have IBS, you have probably learned that coffee is a trigger. Surprisingly, decaffeinated coffee is also a trigger. It is not just the caffeine that stimulates your gut. Coffee contains an enzyme that irritates the digestive tract.
You love the flavor and the entire coffee experience – but you know that coffee is not agreeing with you.
The decision has been made… but you miss that early morning experience… the warm, rich flavor, texture, and aroma… the way it feels as it caresses your tongue and glides down your throat.
Coffee substitutes might be the answer for you.
Grains, nuts, vegetables, and fruits form the basis for many coffee-like beverages. They may be roasted, steeped, or boiled to extract the substances that are used to produce a final dried product that you mix with hot water or prepare like regular ground coffee.
Here are a few substitutes that might be worth trying.
Caf-Lib Original Blend Caffeine-Free Grain Beverage
Caf-Lib is an instant coffee alternative extracted from roasted malt barley, roasted barley, and roasted chicory. It is 100% all natural with no caffeine, sugar, chemicals, or preservatives. It looks and tastes much like coffee without some of coffee’s disagreeable side effects.

Crio Bru Vega Real
Vega Real is premium roasted cocoa with natural hints of red berries and dark spice.
