Is it ok to have at least 1 cup of coffee or ***** mate tea when taking a break from thermogenics to allow my adrenals to heal I'm taking a break (at least 1 week, 2 if I can make it) from 7-keto before I switch back to lipo 6.

Thanks

ok, why did I get stars next to mate tea....hmmmmmm.

Have you considered green tea? Less caffeine and a lot more antioxidants. I have found if you're needing that extra kick, simply a hot drink will help.

Thanks Frank...Actually drinking green tea first thing in the morning makes me sick to my stomach, even if I eat first..but yes i do drink green tea. question.....would 1 week off 7 keto be enough time off? I just can't seem to make it to 2 weeks. There's got to be some kind of rehab for caffeine addiction.

Thanks

rhodiolarosea, panax ginseng, and ashwaghanda are good for healing adrenals and all around mental focus and stress adaptation. rhodiola is is up lift and used to be in muscle synergy.

Thanks Joe. I actually have a supplement that's a mix of each of those... I never too it though because I was afraid of it raising my cortisol levels...would 1 cup of coffee before cardio hurt, or would I be defeating the purpose of stopping 7 keto? I have only been on 7-keto for 6 weeks, so I think I am only going to stop for 1 week.. I always see weight gain when I go for 2 weeks. Is it normal to gain weight when stopping?

why would that raise cortisol levels? i take holy basil and relora to lowerit. if anything the caffeine/coffee is keeping cortisol up in my opinion

keto musclean contain bromelain and grapefruit extract along with the guarana seesd caffeine. all of which are mild diuretics. so that could explain the weight gain when you stop keto musclean.
