Actually, I searched on google now and found no information about any connection between caffeine use and brain damage. In fact, I found studies citing great reduction in brain damage of stroke victims who used a combination of alcohol and caffeine: http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-04/aha-ec040703.php "Those studies â??demonstrated that the combination of caffeine and ethanol may reduce the amount of damage after stroke. Neither caffeine or alcohol offered protection alone, but the combination was protective,â?? says senior author James C. Grotta, M.D., professor of neurology and director of the stroke program, University of Texas-Houston Medical School, Houston, Texas." Other than that, it is common knowledge that both caffeine and nicotine are addictive substances, but, unlike nicotine, caffeine produces no demonstrable ill effects. To conclude, your claims have no factual or scientific basis, and, as one might already be inclined to believe, you are merely spewing all sorts of nonsense. Now, may we cease writing in English and revert to something commonly spoken on the newsgroups where you usually crosspost, or do you think English gives your preposterous claims more weight? -- http://www.danijel.org/ |
