Where are you reading "everything decaf"?

The best rule of thumb IMHO is to avoid caffeine if you are on a high carb diet or 'bulking'. Caffeine and EC type stacks are fine as long as you don't take them near high carb meals. Even with carbs, it's not that bad, but if you drink caffeine all of the time then you lose the ability of it to work for you when you start a diet. In other words, your body can become desensitized to caffeine or EC if you take it 24/7/365.
 
i have seen many posts about people using caffeine on CKD just watch out for some of the diet drugs that contain caffeine may also contain Hydroxycitric acid i believe it is which may bump you out of ketosis
 
i just started ckd today,,bulked up a bit after nursing a back injury,,,not its time to cut up.

I have no problems with caffene and ckd. From what i understand caffene might interfere with glucose uptake, but i dont think it matters if your already in ketosis, none the less i'll be sipping on ABB's speed stack before and during my workouts:D
 
Just finished an 11 week ckd. Great fat loss! Down to 10%
bf easy.

As for caffeine, It never kicked me out of keto, or had negative effects during the diet. You'll get max fat loss if you can drink 1-2 gallons of water a day on the diet though. It's hard to do that if you're drinking coffee all day also. I usually had coffee all morning, then after the 1 or 2 cups I had after arriving at work, I switched to all water. But I also took an "ECA" type stack too that morning.

Great results bro, congrads. What BF% did you come down from??

im pretty sure the no caffeine rule is not becasue it knocks you out of keto--instead i believe caffiene has a habit of making your body crave sugars so thats why some advise against it
 
yes i have recently read the same thing, that the caffiene makes you crave sugar, but energy wise there is not surving without it, especially with no carbs.

its fine to drink. caffiene will have no adverse effects while on a ckd. it actually surpresses hunger, so if you arent adding milk or sugar to it (that will knock you out of keto) then drink away!
