Hi Everyone,
It's chilly here and was craving some coffee. While I'm clear that coffee is a no-no for us, I wasn't clear about a coffee substitute like Pero which has no caffeine and says low acidity. But it is made with Barley, Malted Barley, Chicory, and Rye. If anyone is using or has in the past tried it, please let me know what you think of it. Here's the product information:

I have to come in and second on this Dandelion Root tea as coffee sub while healing. Wow! I was impressed! It does taste like coffee and seems to have a similar texture and color as well. Good enough reminder for me!

I like it a lot too because I have not even added any milk or sweeteners to it either as just the coffee vibe does it for me with that tea. It needs nothing else.

Hi Lara and Peter!
Thank you both for your thoughts on the matter of a coffee substitute. Looks like Pero is not in favor with either of you. So, for real coffee... I don't know if I have a blood sugar issue or adrenal issue. Just prior to getting M, Coffee used to make me have an upset stomach. Before that I drank coffee all my life without problem. But, I was having significant reflux months leading up to getting MD. Happily, I haven't had any stomach acid or reflux since starting this protocol. I will ponder the idea of sipping some organic, low acid coffee with almond milk. As for the Dandelion Tea, Peter mentioned, it sounds like a great coffee substitute. However, I believe I have a ragweed allergy, but if Dandelion root is in some of our Logos supplements, I tolerate those well, so maybe I could have the tea. However, due to severe allergic reactions in my past (swelling of lip/tongue/throat)I just don't think I feel like testing myself on that tea. Darn. Though, I hope others will enjoy it if they are missing coffee.
Blessings!
