Survey On Caffeine for my daughter!

1. Caffeine?

2. Short Term effects? Jittery? Anxious? Can't sleep? Is it a stimulate? I think that it can effect sperm count, too. But I'm not sure if that's long or short term.

3. Scale of 1 to 10? 5

4. In what ways can caffeine enter the body? Orally. How about intravaneosly?

5. Plants? I don't know.


Good luck on your assignment.

1. Caffeine.

2. Depleted iron reserves, which causes a tired feeling, which causes people to drink more caffeine which picks them up short-term then leaves them feeling drained. I went through this not long ago.

4. 1

5. It's probably like many other drugs. You can ingest it, smoke it or inject it. Most common is ingesting most likely.

6. Cacao, black tea leaves and Mate'.

Happy MyLotting!

I must say I shuddered when I knew it was for school. I think I had flashbacks similar to what I hear war veterans have when certain sounds and smells trigger an episode. Question number 1 was a tossup between alcohol, nicotine and caffeine. As the two former are restricted and even minors apparently drink a Red Bull now and again and have access to chocolate and Coca-Cola, caffeine inched the others out in terms of availability. Question number 2 is obviously a stimulant as anyone needing a jolt while late night studying knows. There is no Q#3 and Q#4 studies have shown caffeine to be non-cancer forming but can form a mild addiction which results in headaches when withdrawn, generally there are no lasting effects to long term caffeine use, it was a tossup between 0 and 1 on a dangerous scale. I am sure 99.9% of caffeine ins ingested as food or drink, and in a minor capacity in some pain medications. Q#5 I answered as the product not the plants as I do not know the proper names of the coffee tree, the tea plant or the chocolate plant (which is cacao I think).
