Clarkson Farm's very own Kaleb Cooper has revealed his battle with a coffee addiction, saying he was forced to quit the stimulant "cold turkey".
Detailing his struggles in his freshly published book, 'It's A Farming Thing', the 26 year old opens up about his dietary habits while working gruelling hours on the farm.
According to Kaleb, after enduring terrifying headaches, a medical consultation showed an excessive consumption of coffee, which led to him knocking the habit on the head.
Kaleb recounted the nightmarish experience, mentioning it was akin to detox symptoms experienced by rock icon Keith Richards and Mark Renton, Ewan McGregor's character in the film 'Trainspotting'.
In his own words, Kaleb disclosed: "I don't drink much coffee anymore because I overdid it when I was younger, milking cows bang early. I started getting evil headaches it got so bad I went to the doctor's and had loads of scans, only to find out I was addicted to coffee.", reports Gloucestershire Live.

Describing the ordeal of giving it up, he mentioned: "Coming off it was horrendous. I had to go pure cold turkey and not the kind you put in a sandwich for your dinner (at lunchtime)."
Reflecting on the withdrawal process, he drew parallels between himself and notable figures, musing: "I felt how I imagine Keith Richards must have felt, or the guy out of Trainspotting.
"OK, I didn't see terrible things crawling on the ceiling, but that's because I was too busy climbing up the walls myself."
Furthermore, Kaleb has embraced even more health-conscious choices lately, ditching sugar as wellwhich led to a commendable weight loss of about six kilos.

Regarding the 64 year old's wellbeing last month, Kaleb opened up about Clarkson's resilience. He noted: "I'm at the farm every day, or we'll text every day, or I'll go in for a cup of tea every day."
"He's doing all right, he's doing good. I was there with him when it happened and all I can say is he's definitely a fighter, he's a strong man. He went in, he had the procedure and he's doing really good."
