- Caffeine is a drug
that is naturally produced in the leaves and seeds of many plants.
Caffeine is found in varying quantities in the beans, leaves, and fruit
of over 60 plants, where it acts as a natural pesticide that paralyzes
and kills certain insects feeding on the plants. Caffeine is believed to
constrict dilated blood vessels that may contribute to tension
headaches.
- Caffeine is
addictive, it's true-- research shows that, although humans seem not to
develop tolerance to caffeine (ie do not need more and more, over time,
to get the same results, unlike, say, heroin) it does appear that
caffeine does cause dependence in humans. Caffeine is in coffee, tea,
soft drinks, chocolate and some nuts. Whether high caffeine intake
increases the risk of coronary heart disease is still under
study.
- Caffeine is a
naturally occurring stimulant of the central nervous system and can be
found around the world both naturally in coffees and in teas or
artificially extracted for carbonates beverages. The most common
negative side effect of caffeine consumption is sleep onset
insomnia.Caffeine enters the bloodstream through the stomach and small
intestine and can have its effects as soon as 15 minutes after it is
consumed.
- Caffeine is among
the most widely used drugs because of its ubiquitous occurrence in
commonly consumed beverages such as coffee, tea and cola. Many drugs
contain caffeine and are readily accessible to the public in the form of
OTC stimulants and combination analgesics. Clearly caffeine is an
important drug-food substance in our society which deserves
attention.
- The most commonly
known sources of caffeine are coffee and cocoa beans, cola nuts and tea
leaves. Caffeine is an alkaloid; of which there are numerous compounds
such as the methylxanthines, with three distinguished compounds:
caffeine, theophylline, and theobromine, found in guarana, kola nuts,
coffee, tea, cocoa beans, mate and other plants.
- Caffeine is mainly
consumed for a person to pick up their energy level, to become more
alert, and is used to keep a person awake. A side effect of caffeine is
that it causes more frequent urination. If caffeine is consumed 30-60
minutes before going to bed, it can cause restlessness and trouble
getting to sleep. Also, a tendency to be awakened more easily by sudden
noises can occur.
- Caffeine has a
harmful effect on every organ and system in the human body. Caffeine is
the world's favorite drug and it is big business and the tax revenues it
generates are huge. On the world commodities market, coffee is second
only to petroleum in dollar volume. The actual source of caffeine is the
coffee bean, tea leaf, kola nut and cacao pod. Pure caffeine is odorless
and has a bitter taste.
- Caffeine is defined
as a drug because it stimulates the central nervous system, causing
increased alertness. When humans drink or eat caffeine, it acts as a
stimulant. Caffeine is one of the world's most widely used drugs.
Caffeine is also used as a food additive regulated by the Federal Food
and Drug Administration (FDA).
- Caffeine, the main
ingredient found in coffee is a stimulant. Caffeine injects adrenalin
into your system to give you a boost and make you feel good.
The
symptoms for drinking too much caffeine and the symptoms for caffeine
withdrawal are very similar. Caffeine is used for reducing bodyfat and
perception of effort.
- There is soaring
demand for caffeine-fueled energy drinks, which are especially popular
among teens. And as it happens, energy drinks have become enormously
popular as mixers with alcohol on the bar scene. A competitor paid $215
million for the company that created Sparks, an orange-flavored drink
that has about 6 percent alcohol content along with caffeine, ginseng
and guarana.
- Decaffeinated coffee
accounts for about 10 per cent of the world coffee market, according to
The National Coffee Association of USA. Industrial methods today to
decaffeinate coffee use organic solvents and carbon dioxide to remove
the caffeine from the beans, but in the process tend to deplete
necessary flavour compounds. Research published by researchers in Japan
found genetically modified coffee seedlings could produce up to 70 per
cent less caffeine.
