medtes100: coffee, really bad when u take too much and u try to withdraw from it. could lead to excruciating headaches and insomnia. Its a year and half dt i stopped taking coffee and am still suffering from d withdrawal effects. d most painful part is d inability to read. really affecting my grades in school. praying to get over it soon.

Eeyah. May God help you.

Horse Poo. That won't stop me from taking coffee

Coffee is addictive as cigarette once you start taking it your body gets hooked to it. Just like people who eat kolanut get hooked on it as the caffine is what your brain addicted.

Coffee though is a good thing as it allows your brain to focus try it you will not.

Coffee for me is far far better than tea. Tea makes you want to sleep

I am afraid, I am an addict. Started when I was in school. Then I would sneeze and get some coffee fluid coming out of my nose. In the office it is a must for else I wont be able to do anything for long without losing concentration. As I write now, there is a cup of black coffee on my desk..bad enough, I am having the worst form of tiredness and sleepy feeling even with the coffee.

nice thread for we biochemist

stingbreed: Caffeine is a naturally occurring chemical stimulant called trimethylxanthine. Its chemical formula is C8H10N4O2.
It is a drug, and actually shares a number of traits with more notorious drugs such as amphetamines, cocaine and heroin.
Caffeine uses the same biochemical mechanisms as these other drugs to stimulate brainfunction: If you feel like your mind is racing after drinking one too many energy drinks, you're not imagining things.
In its pure form, caffeine is a white crystalline powder that tastes very bitter. It is medically useful to stimulate the heartand also serves as a mild diuretic, increasing urine production to flush fluid out of the body.
Caffeine has been an integral part of global culture for hundreds of years. African folklore sets the discovery of coffee's energizing properties around 800 A.D., European and Asian accounts indicate that coffee and tea were local staples as early as the 1400s. Although coffee was often seen as a rare luxury for societies far removed from coffee-growing regions, foods and drinks made from other caffeine-containing plants were likely part of humankind's medical and nutritional arsenal since before recorded history.
Today, caffeine is used much as it has been for generations: It provides a "boost of energy" or a feeling of heightened alertness. Many former students can recall using strong coffee or caffeine pills to stay awake while cramming for finals. Likewise, drivers on long road tripsoften fill their cup holders with energy drinks or convenience-store coffees to help them push through to their destinations.
Remember, though, that caffeine shares some traits of those much harder drugs -- including the ability to cause addiction. Many people feel as though they cannot function in the morning without a cup of coffee (and its caffeine-powered boost) to kick-start the day. Caffeine's effects may be much milder than those of illicit drugs, but kicking a caffeine habit can be difficult for someone who has made the drug a large part of his or her diet and lifestyle.
Caffeine is unlike many other drugs in that it is abundant in what we eat and drink.

I really dealt with coffee while in the university. I hardly read during the day. Am a night jacking machine. So coffee really helped me to stay awake all night to read.
Immediately i left the university, i ran away very very far from it.

brother try stopping for a week and see what happens

is it alright for pregnant and breasting women

PreciousGem: is it alright for pregnant and breasting women

nooooooooooo

stingbreed: brother try stopping for a week and see what happens

Nothing special will happen. I've been taking coffee since I got out of high school. I stopped in-between though. Situations around me actually determine if I'll stick to it or not. So I stop or continue with it depending on.....

Nothing can separate me from my coffee. People should also try coffee with lime. It makes good sense. There's even a blend of that from Nestlé. Not sure if it's in Nigeria though. Then there's Nestlé Nespresso capsule.

wow!!!......guess I wud start taking cocain ! ...sorry coffee religiously now!!!
