新概念閱讀：教你如何戒掉咖啡癮

新概念閱讀：
Caffeine addiction is so commonplace that nobody will bat an eye if you say you need your daily dose of coffee.Though people claim that coffee benefits them, the efficacy of the brown liquid is often misconceived. For starters, studies have shown that although caffeine may give you more speed, you"ll be more prone to making mistakes. This means even if you have a larger output, it'll be of lower quality. More negatives include feeling jittery when you drink too much coffee and withdrawal symptoms like headaches if you choose to stop drinking. Convinced? Here are some tips to kicking your caffeine habit to the curb for good this year:
咖啡癮太常見了，所以如果你說要每天喝杯咖啡，都沒有人會在意。雖然人們聲稱咖啡對他們有益，但這種棕色液體的功效卻被經(jīng)常誤解。對剛開始喝咖啡的人們來說，研究表明雖然咖啡因會讓你做事速度更快，但也更容易犯錯誤。這意味著雖然你做了更多事，但質(zhì)量卻更低。負(fù)面影響還有：咖啡喝多后會焦躁不安，不喝時會有頭痛的戒斷癥狀?，F(xiàn)在相信了吧？下面有些小建議可以讓你今年永遠(yuǎn)擺脫喝咖啡的習(xí)慣：

1. Figure out your quitting style. Everyone has their own way of kicking bad habits, and you can either choose to go cold turkey or ease off it slowly. Remember, if you go cold turkey and suffer withdrawal symptoms, don't take any pain medication for your headaches since those have caffeine in it as well!
1. 找到自己的“退出”方式。每個人都有戒掉壞習(xí)慣的方法，你可以痛定思痛下決心快速戒掉，也可以慢慢除去壞習(xí)慣。要記住的是，如果你決定快點戒掉并且出現(xiàn)戒斷癥狀，別用吃藥治療頭痛，因為這些也含有咖啡因！

2. Find a replacement. When you find yourself craving coffee, try to replace it with caffeine-free tea. Chamomile and mint tea are always good options.
2. 找替代品。當(dāng)你很想喝咖啡時，試著喝茶代替，它們不含咖啡因。菊花茶和薄荷茶總是很好的選擇。

3. Try decaf. When you just miss the comfort of the taste of coffee, opt for decaf. Keep in mind that there's actually a small amount of caffeine in a decaffeinated cup of joe, so drink a small cup.
3. 試試看無咖啡因咖啡。當(dāng)你想起沁人心脾的咖啡味時，就喝沒有咖啡因的咖啡吧。要記得在一杯“不含咖啡因”的咖啡中，還是會有少量咖啡因的，所以喝一小杯即可。

Of course, it's up to each individual to decide if quitting coffee is right for them. I'd say you should truly consider it if you're drinking excessive amounts (more than three or four cups a day) and if you're feeling some of the negative effects of caffeine.
當(dāng)然，每個人要自己決定戒咖啡是否合適。如果你喝過量的咖啡（一天超過三四杯），而且感覺到咖啡因的一些副作用，我覺得你確實該考慮一下是否要戒了。
