A lot of coffee drinkers would admit that they’re “addicted to caffeine” . . . but they’re usually lighthearted about it. Even though it may have a DEATH GRIP on their mornings.
In a new survey, 81% of Americans say they drink caffeine. And about HALF of them say their biggest source of caffeine is coffee. 20% are drinking caffeinated soda . . . 7% are sipping a lot of tea . . . and 4% are guzzling energy drinks.
30% of them say they’ve “tried to quit.” 6% say they haven’t . . . but probably should. And 32% say they have NOT tried to quit, and “wouldn’t even try.”
Only 6% of the people who have tried to quit caffeine have been successful.
Also: For a lot of people, drinking caffeine is an “all or nothing” habit.
29% of caffeine drinkers have it “several times a day.” Another 32% enjoy it “once a day.” 12% say they can get by with “a few times a week.” And 6% are able to limit themselves to “a few times a month,” or maybe once a week.
But only 1% of caffeine drinkers say they have it “less often” than that.
People were also asked what it would take them to make a serious effort to eliminate caffeine.
34% would do it for “health reasons” . . . 23% would try it to improve sleep . . . 19% would for “dietary reasons” . . . 17% would if they didn’t like how caffeine affected their mood or nerves . . . and 17% would if they didn’t like feeling “dependent on it.”
