There's always sugar-free Red Bull which is preferable to the sugary default kind, but I like high-quality green tea. After you wean yourself off the hard caffeine spikes of coffee or Red Bull, you realise green tea contains trace amounts of caffeine, enough to get you over the hump after your body readjusts. It's also antioxidant-rich.



I agree with the sugar-free, but often they replace it with something worse.

Actually anything natural, organic food is stimulating the body, while anything artificial, fabricated food is destroying the body.

So if you want to hack along with a sharp mind, keep your mind in shape by replenishing the body with what it needs. Period.


Seems like quite an over-generalization. I agree that a rational Bayesian approach would favor organic foods, because thousands of years of natural selection is probably a better indicator than laboratory tests of long-term low-dose toxicities and important but uncommon complex molecules in food supplies. But that doesn't mean that there aren't plenty of natural substances that are damaging to the human body even in moderation.
