  1. Caffeine Aaron Warning and Megan Anderson

  2. Caffeine: The Most Popular Nutraceutical • Use dates back to the stone age • Popular: easy access and few documented negative side effects • Effects: ↑ heart rate, ↑ respiration rate, psychotropic effects • http://blog.timesunion.com/healthyprofessor/is-more-coffee-in-your-genes/1814/ • Nehlig, Astrid; Daval, JL.; Debry, G. Effects of Coffee on the Central Nervous System. Brain Res Rev. 1992, Volume 17, 139-170.

  3. 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine or 3,7-dihydro-1,3,7-trimethyl-1H-purine-2,6-dione ChemDraw (convert name to structure)

  4. Mode of Action • Caffeine stimulates the nervous system • It binds to adenosine receptors on neurons in the brain • Adenosine receptors: normally causes you to feel tired and slows down the nervous system • If caffeine binds to them = opposite effect Fisone, G; Borgkvist, A; Usiello, A. Caffeine as a psychomotor stimulant: mechanism of action. CMLS2003, Volume 61, 857-867

  5. How much is too much? • No RDA for caffeine • UL is 300-400 mg/day • No Adequate Intake established • Negative side effects: heart rate, anxiety, depression, insomnia, nausea, and vomiting • Lethal dose is 10g http://johngushue.typepad.com/blog/coffee/ Lindskog, M; Svenningsson, P; Pazzi, L; Kim, Y; Fienberg, A; Bibb, J; Fredholm, B; Nairn, A; Greengard, P; Fisone, G.

  10. Caffeine Consumption • Biosynthesis v. Synthetic Synthesis • Synthetic more in energy drinks • Synthetic is cheaper and faster • Natural: found more in tea and coffee • Natural is buffered with over 500 plant molecules • Slower acting • More expensive http://www.mohrresults.com/mohr-results-weight-loss-2/the-worst-energy-drinks/ http://www.salisburyarea.com/TheChamberVoice/TabId/179/ArtMID/603/ArticleID/183/Coffee-with-your-Council.aspx Ashihara, Hiroshi; Purine metabolism and the biosynthesis of caffeine in mate leaves.
