Hi! valued readers and visitors,
I am very glad to share with you, an article written by one of my contacts which I strongly believe that it is invaluable to you. As such, I urge you to read it with open mind and of course, I am more than happy and look forward to hearing from you. I must admit that I am very much hooked on Caffeine and I need at least a cup of coffee to keep me awake.
In order for me to cut down the caffeine intake, I have replaced it with Tea, a wonderful thing which is more than beverage. To find out why I say so, you may check my article out at the link below:-
Happy reading and stay tune. I shall share with you more on tea in a related article.
Trust you will find it interesting.
To us, sharing is caring.

4 Signs You’re Dependent on Caffeine
Do you ever wonder whether you could be addicted to caffeine? These four warning signs, taken from Stephen Cherniske’s book “Caffeine Blues” (pages 41-42), are used by scientists to decide if you have a dependence on a drug.
1. Withdrawal
Reducing or stopping your caffeine all together results in some of the following symptoms:
- Headache
- Depression
- Profound fatigue
- Irritability
- Disorientation
- Increased muscle tension
- Nausea
- Vomiting
Ninety-four percent of people that scientists class as caffeine dependent experience some of these symptoms.
2. Dependence
Behaviour is defined as dependent if consumption continues
despite knowledge of a persistent or recurrent physical or psychological problem that is likely to have been caused or exacerbated by caffeine.
Ninety-four percent of caffeine dependent people experience this.
3. Inability to Quit
Defined as
a persistent desire or unsuccessful efforts to cut down or control use.
Eighty-one percent of caffeine dependent people were unable to cut down or quit.
4.Tolerance
Gradually greater amounts of caffeine are required for an effect, the body builds up a tolerance.
Seventy-five percent of caffeine dependent people report tolerance.
The big question is, do these signs describe how you feel?
