Caffeine Fact & Fallacy: Effects and Uses as a Medicine, Food and Beverage Ingredient and as a Flavoring Agent. A Pocket Guide for Clinicians, Researchers and Consumer Education. Caffeine is the only FDA-approved nonprescription or over-the-counter (OTC) stimulant medication for occasional use. Over 80% of the US adult population consumes caffeine daily, thus making it one of the most popular drugs. Annual consumption is estimated to be well over 100,000 tons. Caffeine is a common ingredient in coffee, tea, soft drinks, and chocolate products. It is also present in many prescription as well as OTC medications, including headache and cold remedies; menstrual pain relief medications, diet and weight reduction products, and stimulant formulations.
Unfortunately, misinformation regarding the drug has persisted since the beginning of its discovery. Everyone seems to be consumed by the fallacies about the stimulant. "When it comes to caffeine use as a food and beverage ingredient and as a flavoring agent, that ignorance is multiplied many times over" said a Coca-Cola Company official. This publication attempts to lay to rest much, if not all, of that misinformation with facts and evidence from well-conducted human and animal subjects trials. The purpose of this pocket guide is to provide a summary of research information patterning to caffeine. Some of the information circulated over the years about the effects of caffeine lacks factual scientific basis. The text is divided into major headings of physiological and behavioral effects associated with caffeine consumption. The extensive information about caffeine is categorized and organized in tabular and concise form to facilitate reading and comprehension. It is a very quick and easy-to-use reference work. This is the only book written for all segments of society (clinicians, researchers and consumers or laymen) unlike the only other two books on this subject, to our knowledge, which are too technical and written for researchers mainly.

Unique and elegantly designed, this is a perfect gift for yourself - or anyone - to chronicle daydreams and innermost desires. Personal growth and honesty are the focus of the companion journal, Self Help. Pages of both books are lined, the trim size makes each easy to carry, and when it's time to write, the book lays perfectly flat.
Cafe Haiku Cafe Haiku isn't a poetry book. Instead, Zenbu Nometa has twirled the short Japanese poetics into a witty commentary on cafes, from the daily ritual of buying lattes to a metaphor following the metal flap on a sugar dispenser. Paired with quick, lively descriptions that tease the photographs like a shake of cinnamon in an espresso are 47 black and white photographs and the result is Cafe Haiku.
Through the Gates of Hell: Stories of Caffeine Psychosis A collection of 27 stories, the first fiction book about caffeine psychosis is written by a writer, medical professional and the world expert on caffeine psychosis. The book carries the reader from the Boston Tea Party through the widespread production and use of psychiatric drugs, including SSRI drugs, drugs that should not be used with caffeine. The book focuses on many issues, including caffeine-induced physical illness diagnosed as mental illness, elderly dementia, and ADHD. Showing how caffeine can bring its user to the depths of despair, the book reveals caffeine's horrific effects that many caffeine users, medical doctors and psychiatrists don't know about.
