After having spent the last couple years getting my low carb lifestyle together, making the transition to paleo hasn't been too extremely difficult however there is one thing thats very hard to kick and that is my daily coffee addiction. For someone who isn't likely to quit the caffeine is coffee still the best way to go? I may try to substitute for something a little easier on my stomach like mate or green tea. Does anyone else still drink coffee or other caffeine drinks?

I used to drink diet coke frequently, probably my only source of caffeine. On the paleo diet, I started drinking hot tea, particulary when the weather was cold, and I've almost eliminated soda. I didn't even intend to get off diet coke, it's just that there are so many really good flavors of tea and it's paleo.

Even if you can't stop drinking coffee, something like tea may cut down your consumption.

I continue to drink coffee, because there are many types of teas that contain complex starches, and I avoid those.

I am unapologetic on the coffee front.
