Regular Mini Doses of Caffeine More Energizing Than Morning Mug

Interesante reporte de como varias dosis de cafeina son mejores que una tasa gigante.

A lot of people start their day with a big cup of coffee, hoping that the caffeine will invigorate them. But findings published today in the May issue of the journal SLEEP indicate that there might be a better way to stay awake for long periods. According to the report, low doses of caffeine administered at regular intervals may provide improved pick-me-up benefits.

dos cosas. 1.- la teoria suena bien. Con dosis pequeñas aumentas el efecto y prolongas el cafeine buzz. 2.- hay una revista dedicada al sueño???


In the new study, the scientists instead tested the effects of administering an hourly, low dose of caffeine equivalent to about two ounces of coffee to one group, while the second group received a placebo. The caffeinated men performed better on cognitive tests than the control individuals did, and dozed off less often. And though they received the same cumulative dose as subjects in previous, single-dose studies, taking many small doses minimized some of the negative side effects that caffeine can have, such as tremors.


The caffeinated men performed better. Eso fue todo lo que lei del parrafo anterior.

Ahorita regreso voy por unas onzas de cafe.
