A Dr. Al Sears M.D. Special Report:
The Dark Side Of Coffee:
Is The Crash Worse Than The Boost?
Dear Reader,
If you drink two, three...or even four cups of coffee a day, there’s something you need to know before you refill that mug.
Coffee brain drain...
Don’t refill that mug until you learn how a rainforest seed can protect you...
You might love coffee, but your brain has a love-hate relationship with it.
For every good feeling coffee gives you-the mental rush, the morning jump-start - there’s a downside. When that buzz wears off, your brain realizes it’s been robbed of something it holds very dear: acetylcholine. That’s the brain chemical responsible for keeping your mind sharp and clear.
And what happens next is a chain reaction of destruction. First your brain chemicals start to run wild. Then your brain cells set off on a frantic scavenger hunt to find reserves of acetylcholine...so they can extract it from somewhere else in your body.
It doesn’t take long before your brain finds the nearest target to steal from – your nerve cell membranes.
In other words...
Your brain starts to destroy itself.
It sounds like a horror movie, but it’s an everyday event for a coffee drinker. Over time, it becomes a recipe for disaster. (Non-coffee-drinkers aren’t entirely off the hook, either. I’ll explain that in a moment.)
But before we go any further...
I’m Not About To Tell You To Give Up
Your Morning Cup Of Coffee
I’m Dr. Al Sears. In over 20 years of seeing patients in my clinic and researching dozens of different coffees from South America to South Africa and Bali, I can tell you that daily fix of java is more than a guilty pleasure.
It’s good for your health. Coffee can give you a wide range of health benefits that are as diverse as the flavors of the coffee bean.
That’s why I drink it myself. You can’t beat the taste of a good Colombian roast.
Coffee can reduce your risk of colon cancer and Parkinson’s. It has antioxidants and minerals like magnesium that are beneficial for blood sugar metabolism.
And it tends to put everyone in a better mood.
The good news is, there’s an easy solution for cleaning up the mess that takes place in your brain after you drink coffee. So you have no need to worry.
On a recent trip to the Amazon, I discovered a seed that can help you refuel your brain after your morning coffee rush wears off. It’s just one component of my easy solution for putting an end to the "brain drain" without having to give up your lattes.
But first you need to see what’s really going on in your head...
This Is Your Brain On Coffee
With your first sip of coffee in the morning, your brain begins to release a fresh supply of acetylcholine. Essentially this is what gives you the "buzz" that gets you going. It doesn’t take long for you to feel alert and ready to face the day.
Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter – and more specifically, it’s the brain chemical responsible for quick thinking. When your brain has a lot of acetylcholine, your mind is sharp and clear.
It also controls basic functions like sleep, arousal, attention, intelligence, and mood.
And to serve the trillions of neurons in your brain, you need a constant supply of acetylcholine to keep the signals flowing around the clock.
But, again, here’s where the trouble starts. When this "coffee rush" happens day after day, it uses up your brain’s reserves of acetylcholine... slowly draining you of this important neurotransmitter.
That leaves you burned out and forces you into the vicious cycle of craving more and more coffee...and signals your brain to start self-destructing.
And we already know what happens when your reserves are low...
Your Brain Goes Into "Auto-Cannibalism" Mode
It’s not pretty. Researchers call this "auto-cannibalism" because your body has to destroy one part of itself to feed another.
In the short term, your brain will use this technique to keep your memory and other functions up and running.
But in the long run, your nerve cells won’t be able to fire as perfectly as they do when everything’s working optimally.
And it’s not just coffee drinkers who have to be concerned about this auto-cannibalism. Any source of traditional caffeine-tea, cola, energy drinks, and even chocolate-can wipe out your reserves of acetylcholine over time.
The Choline Kick-Start
Researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago tested people with a choline deficiency. They gave the whole group a series of memory tests and found that the scores were below average. Then they divided the same people into two groups. One group received extra choline, the other didn’t.
After 24 weeks, both groups repeated the memory tests. The group that received no extra choline showed no improvement over the first round.
The group with the extra choline performed with flying colors. Their results showed dramatic improvement.
Source: Buchman AL, et al, "Verbal and visual memory improve after choline supplementation." JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr. 2001;25(1):30-5.
The good news is, your brain does have the ability to make acetylcholine. All it needs is the right ingredients – and the most important one is a nutrient called choline.
Your brain simply can’t do without choline.
When you don’t have enough, you can really feel it. Your mind seems cloudy, like you’re not "catching on" to new information or remembering details as easily. You could feel tired during the day...but then have trouble falling asleep at night. You could feel distracted or irritable.
And here’s an unexpected side effect: You could have trouble keeping your balance, too, because acetylcholine controls your movement and stability.
But there’s an easy way to stop all this before it starts.
I’ve developed something that’s better than coffee to replenish your brain with the nutrients that keep you sharp and focused.
Refuel Your Brain To Prevent Self-Scavenging
You see, the solution isn’t as simple as taking choline. There’s a lot more you need to do to keep your brain running like a well-oiled machine...and get a long-lasting surge of energy at the same time.
As I mentioned, choline is only one ingredient in acetylcholine. Your body also needs DMAE. It’s a natural nutrient found in sardines, anchovies and other fish.
DMAE is also linked to your brain’s accuracy and mental energy. It can also improve your mood and attentiveness. In a study of 80 people, those who received DMAE were more active and alert than those who did not.¹
Now, you might be thinking, "Dr. Sears, it’s great that my brain will be refueled...but what about that sluggish, tired feeling I get after my first cup of coffee has worn off?"
That part is easy...
Get Your Mental Edge Naturally, And Jitter-Free
To get an alert, focused feeling that lasts all day - without pouring a second or third cup of coffee - you need to know about guaranine. It’s the active compound in the guarana plant (Paullinia cupana).
Not A Coffee Drinker?
You might think you’re in the clear...but coffee’s not the only thing that can cause destruction in your brain.
Caffeinated tea, cola, energy drinks, and even chocolate can also wipe out your reserves of acetylcholine over time...and send your brain into a desperate search to replace it... through auto-cannibalism.
Keep reading to discover the natural antidote...
I first had guarana while I was on a two-week expedition through the Peruvian Amazon. I tried it just before we set out for a demanding day of hiking. And by "hiking," I mean blazing a trail through unchartered territory with a 20-pound backpack and a machete.
My guide explained that guarana is sacred to the nearby Guarani tribe, who consider it a gift from the gods. They’ve used it to prevent fatigue and build their physical endurance since before recorded history.
With a track record like that, I wanted to see for myself.
After an 18-hour journey over the rugged jungle terrain, I felt like I could keep going. I still had plenty of energy left. Even better, my mind was alert and clear. I can still recall the vivid rainbow of colors in the forest...the wild, unfamiliar sounds of the creatures that live there...and the feeling of being alert and present in each spectacular moment.
It was like the guarana plant had given me a heightened sense of focus and recall. Like my mind was processing new information better than ever before.
Guaranine works so well because it’s in the caffeine family, but it’s nothing like the regular caffeine most people have had before. It gives you an exhilarating lift...but it doesn’t pick you up and throw you down the way other sources of caffeine do.
Here’s why. When coffee floods your brain with acetylcholine, you get a short burst of energy that overexcites and overheats your body. With guaranine, the release of acetylcholine is slower because it’s packed with a healthy fat known as oleic acid. This creates a cooling and revitalizing effect that lasts longer.
Caffeine Chaos
Coffee does more than steal your acetylcholine. The caffeine also gives your brain a "wake-up call" by blocking adenosine. That’s the chemical that tells your brain when you are tired and it’s time to sleep. By cutting off adenosine’s signal, you’ll be alert with a false sense of energy.
But you can’t fool your brain forever. When it doesn’t receive the "sleep signal," it knows something is wrong. So it sends out more and more receptors to look for adenosine. By the time the caffeine wears off, you have way too many adenosine receptors to function properly.
That’s when a thick brain fog rolls in. Your thoughts become cloudy...sending you straight to the nearest pot of coffee to keep the cycle of destruction going. That’s why I developed a better way to refuel your brain and feel more alert – it’s Better Than Coffee.
That slow release prevents the "coffee brain drain" so you don’t get the feeling of a crash shortly after taking it.
And you don’t get that nervous, jittery feeling, either. You’re simply calm, cool and collected.
So instead of refilling your coffee mug each time you feel that "crash" coming on, reach for the combination of guarana, choline and DMAE I call Better Than Coffee.
I’ve made this trio even better by adding a unique blend of 19 vitamins, energy-building nutrients, amino acids, plus a few more potent herbs I was able to try during my time in the rainforest.
I call it Better Than Coffee for one simple reason: It makes me feel better than coffee does!
I like the way it recharges me for the day, keeps my mind sharp and clear, and builds my reserves of acetylcholine at the same time.
It could bring you a level of energy and alertness that no cup of coffee can match.
Try it today and discover what I'm talking about for yourself.
And when you do, you’ll be happy to learn that it won’t change what I said earlier...
You Don’t Have To Give Up Coffee
When I said you didn’t have to give up coffee, I meant it.
Better Than Coffee was designed to help you enjoy your morning coffee fix without losing out on the acetylcholine you need to keep your mind sharp and clear. So when that first brew wears off and the mid-morning slump starts creeping in...when your heels start to drag and your eyelids get heavy...you don’t have to head back to the coffee pot. Just mix a scoop of Better Than Coffee into your favorite juice, or just use cold water. You can even add it to a smoothie if you’d like.
Here’s What People
Are Saying About
Better Than Coffee...
Makes me feel clear-headed
"Dr. Sears’ Better Than Coffee makes me feel alert without the crash and burn and without jitters. I don’t feel like I need to drink another cup in the afternoon. My energy lasts all day. It also makes me feel clear headed and healthy."
– Gary H.,
Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Keeps me going all day!
"I love this stuff. I used to drink the energy drinks from gas stations, but after a while I noticed my stomach would hurt...and the rush of energy only lasted a few hours before I was ready to crash on my desk. Dr. Sears’ [Better Than Coffee] drink really keeps me going all day. And when I get home, I still have the energy to go to the gym and spend time with my family and friends!"
– Kristen B.,
Wellington, FL,
You’ll soon feel rejuvenated and ready to go for the rest of the day. It’s the natural way to free yourself from the crash-and-burn cycle.
But the thing is, you might find that you don’t have as much use for coffee once you’ve tried Better Than Coffee. Many of my friends and patients tell me that they drink less of the black stuff now that they can get the same long-lasting energy in my formula. But everyone is different.
As I mentioned, I enjoy a cup of coffee just like anybody else. And I love to have it when I travel. I always take my coffee just as the locals do and I enjoy comparing the unique flavors.
But at home, coffee’s not a part of my morning ritual the way it used to be, now that I have Better Than Coffee.
Just think of everything you’ll be able to do when your mind has all the supercharged fuel it needs. You’ll be thinking on your feet at lightning-fast speed. You’ll tackle your day with a clear head, at the top of your game.
And you can have that feeling all day.
It Does A Lot More For Your Brainpower... And Costs A Lot Less Than Starbucks
If you stop into Starbucks to pick up a 16-ounce coffee, it’ll set you back about $2.30 on average – every single time. That really adds up...day after day, cup after cup.
With Better Than Coffee you won’t need to keep going back for more. Instead of having a second and third latte, you’ll need just one serving of Better Than Coffee.
And that one serving costs only 93 cents.
