Coffee: the Wonder Drug http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1618/coffee-the-wonder-drug/ There is abundant evidence that drinking coffee is good for you? But how much coffee should you drink to obtain the various benefits that coffee offers? Bloomberg Business weighs in on this issue with an article entitled How to Transform Your Coffee into a Wonder Drug. Coffee lovers of the world know that their morning cup contains a substance to be reckoned with. Caffeine is so effective at juicing our energy and productivity that until 2004, its intake was restricted by the International Olympic Committee. But the original performance-enhancing drug doesn't just provide a jolt to athletes. But while caffeine is best known for its ability to keep us awake and alert-more than a few of you are likely reading this piece with a cup of coffee in one hand-research suggests it can sharpen performance across an astonishing range of tasks. As with most things, though, it's easy to overdo it and negate those positive effects. Here’s how, and when, to dose yourself with coffee just right. It turns out that coffee works better if you are not tired! It has to do with brain chemistry. And if you want to improve longer term memory over a 24 hour period, drink coffee. This particular info comes from a study published in Nature Neuroscience regarding caffeine and memory consolidation in humans. It is currently not known whether caffeine has an enhancing effect on long-term memory in humans. We used post-study caffeine administration to test its effect on memory consolidation using a behavioral discrimination task. Caffeine enhanced performance 24 h after administration according to an inverted U-shaped dose-response curve; this effect was specific to consolidation and not retrieval. We conclude that caffeine enhanced consolidation of long-term memories in humans. Want to remember what is going on? Drink coffee.

morning cup contains a substance to be

juicing our energy and productivity that until
2004, its intake was restricted by the
International Olympic Committee. But the

Coffee Fosters Cooperation as Well

Another interesting study cited in the
Bloomberg Business article has to do with
people being more cooperative after
drinking coffee.

14. http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1618/coffee-the-

Nutritional Neuroscience reported that
caffeinated coffee enhances co-operative
behavior.

15. http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1618/coffee-the-
wonder-drug/
The present study examined the effects of
caffeinated coffee on antidepressant-related
co-operative behavior. Seventy-seven low-
caffeine users took part in a randomized,
double-blind, cross-over study of single
dose of caffeinated coffee (150 mg caffeine)
and decaffeinated coffee (9 mg caffeine)
with at least a 3-day washout period.

16. http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1618/coffee-the-

In each session, participants were asked to
imagine a fictitious person and play the
Mixed Motive Game with that person 45 min
after coffee consumption. Heart rate, blood
pressure, and state moods were measured
at baseline and at 45 min post-coffee
consumption. After caffeinated coffee,
participants exhibited significantly higher
blood pressure.

They also allocated significantly fewer
scores to themselves and sent significantly
more sadness message during the game.
These results suggest that caffeinated
coffee may help to improve social support
and depressive symptoms.

Do you want workers in your business to
cooperate with each other? Keep the coffee
pot full!

And Much More

Coffee works on the adenosine system
which has important functions throughout
the brain so it is not surprising that
everything from typing speed to overall
creativity are improved by coffee.

And, by the way, don’t forget that coffee
reduces the risk of various cancers, Type II
diabetes, depression and Alzheimer’s
disease.
