It's All About Coffee (#)

  „If you are reading this, you are most likely a coffee addict, which means that when you abstain from coffee, you get a whopper of a headache from caffeine withdrawal. There are several reasons to avoid coffee and caffeine, but the most common are surgery and Yom Kippur (and other religious fasts). Hopefully, you won't have to contend with surgery too many times in your life, but if you are Jewish, "the holidays" come around every fall, ready or not. Yom Kippur is a complete fast day; no water, no food, and no coffee, from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday (more or less).“

  „When the caffeine intake is reduced, the body becomesoversensitive to adenosine. In response, blood pressure drops dramatically, resulting inan excess of blood in the head, leading to the 'caffeine headache.' This headache can lastfrom one to five days, and can be alleviated with an analgesic or with caffeine intake.Further withdrawal symptoms may include irritability, muscle tension, inability toconcentrate or work, and, in extreme cases, nausea and vomiting. Withdrawal symptoms canbegin just 12 hours following your last caffeine indulgence. Symptoms can be counteredwith lots of exercise and sleep.“

Coffee Cupping: A Basic Introduction (INeedCoffee.com)

  „Now this again is choice but I prefer to spit out the coffee. It seems a waste but after 12-18 coffees even a die-hard caffeine addict like myself can start to feel a little funny from the effects. Also it's hard work on the taste buds if you're swallowing it all, and you're being unfair on the later coffees. Anyway coffee should be drunk not slurped!“

  „A A very small percentage of the population may experience minor symptoms such as headache if they suddenly stop consuming caffeine, but these symptoms only last for a couple of days with no long term adverse effects. There are no withdrawal effects if one gradually reduces intake or switches to decaffeinated coffee.“

  „Drinking exotic coffee may be the new national pastime, but producers are fighting off one serious caffeine headache. In the past year, overproduction has caused the price of unroasted coffee to plunge more than 40 percent, devastating the small farmers who produce most of the world's crop. In Colombia, some predict destitute farmers will turn to growing coca or poppies, and the plight has even created coffee refugees. The 14 Mexican migrants who died crossing the Arizona border a few weeks ago were mostly failed coffee pickers.“
