CAFFEINE

Americans consume 160 billion cups of coffee per year

and about 120 million pounds of tea - or approximately

36 million pounds of caffeine. 85% of persons 18 years

or older are consuming caffeine with a mean intake of 186

mg. caffeine per day (2.2 cups of coffee).

Nearly every one of the 60 million sodas consumed has

caffeine - but with children and youth being the greater

consumers and so oblivious to the health hazards hidden

within these innocent looking cans - they may as well be

smoking.

Caffeine, like chocolate, is a close cousin to nicotine.

While trying to quit smoking, one cup of caffeinated

coffee or tea and even flesh foods - will trigger the

demand for a cigarette. Detrimental effects? While

books have been written about this, suffice to say that

the throat, stomach, heart, brain and its nervous system

suffer the most. The chief problems are the lack of

quality sleep (though one may have the eyes closed!) and

muscular tremors.

Decaffeinated coffee is worse - like jumping from the

frying pan into the fire. Caffeol (the oil which gives

coffee its flavor and which is used in tanning leather!)

is a concentrated astringent and irritates all the mucous

membranes, the liver, kidneys and bladder. Often the

result of heavy caffeol doses in the bladder urine gives

rise to bladder cancer. I can always tell by the mucous

irritation whether one is drinking caffeinated or

decaffeinated coffee. Weight for weight the kola nut

contains more caffeine than the coffee bean and leaves

the brain even more fatigued.

Caffeine is an alkaloid - a vegetable poison - and

causes all the problems associated with alkalosis,

including allergies, sensitivities and a predisposition

to arteriosclerosis and gout. It causes a compensatory

depression, increases pressure in glaucoma, destroys

stomach pepsin, high blood pressure and increases the

heart rate. Not containing one atom of nourishment,

caffeine can only whip an already tired horse and forces

the system to borrow from tomorrow's reserves - with

interest. Caffeine interferes with the recharging

process. Proof of this is the morning "hangover"

headache - tell tale of the state of exhaustion in the

nerve centers.

In the old days - just before an auction - horses were

frequently injected with a small amount of caffeine to

stimulate them and to keep their heads high and their

actions spry. When the next day the horse's head was

down low again the owner realized he'd been duped. Both

the theobromine of chocolate and the caffeine of coffee

and tea stimulate, excite and quicken the living

machinery and force one to feel strong,active and quick-

witted. Unfortunately it also helps produce lumpy cysts

and fibroids in the reproductive machinery. The

responsible chemicals for this are purine, uric acid,

xanthines, caffeine and theobromine. Purine is also

found in all dead flesh and is chemically almost

identical to that found coffee, tea, chocolate and

cocoa. Uric acid is C3/H4/N4/O3, Caffeine is

C8/H10/N4/O2 and Theobomine of cocoa is 7/H8/H4/Os. To

reduce breast, uterine or ovarian lumps (solid nodules -

like the pearl) complete abstinence from the xanthines,

purines and uric acids is essential. And abstinence

will also help people with hypoglycemia.

Time to clear the cupboards and make a resolution to

eliminate one more bad habit.
