Coffee Always Made Me Anxious & Jittery — Until I Tried This Type

I've long loved the ritual of sipping a warm cup of coffee. I also enjoy the flavor of coffee quite a bit, and living in Seattle, I've tried many different kinds over the years.

Unfortunately, coffee doesn't always love me back. Like many people, I've experienced jitters and energy dips with coffee—especially when I'm having two to three cups a day. Caffeine can make me feel jumpy and trigger anxiety. Overall, I just feel a lot of ups and downs when I'm drinking it.

But during a recent trip to Italy, I noticed something strange: I could have several espressos a day without feeling anxious. The coffee there made me feel even-keeled and ready, with no afternoon low.

My husband suffers from acid reflux, so he was also curious about switching to a new coffee, preferably one that had lower acidity. We tried clean coffee+ together for the first time late last year—and we both felt great.

clean coffee+ gave me a similar feeling to when I was in Italy: no ups and downs or jitters; just sustained, clearheaded energy. My husband also noticed benefits from the low-acidity beans.

We loved the flavor too. We've tried some other "clean" coffee over the years (and even forayed into mushroom coffee), and none of them tasted as smooth as this. The nice thing is that when something tastes really, really good, you don't need to mask the flavor by adding a ton of sugar or artificial stuff to it.

We usually just make a brew with our French press in the morning and add a splash of grass-fed, high-quality creamer or a clean nut milk and it's good to go.

My husband travels a lot for work, and he's told me he notices a difference when he needs to drink whatever coffee they stock in his hotel room.
