kerana saya seorang caffeine-addict

Long-term caffeine consumption is bad!
FALSE.
According to research psychologists at the US Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine, as long as you don't have high blood pressure, heart arrhythmia or suffer from anxiety disorders, consuming caffeinated beverages over the years should not pose health problems.

Caffeine makes me sharper.
TRUE.
In your brain, caffeine interrupts adenosine (the chemical that signals sleeps) and stimulate pleasure centres. Hence, it has the ability to make you feel both alert and relaxed all at once.

Caffeine ups my game.
TRUE.
Caffeine stimulates you to exercise 10 to 15 percent longer because it keeps you from getting tired quickly.

If I have coffee after dinner, I'd be sleepless!
FALSE.
A small cup of coffee afther dinner is OK for most people, but if you have trouble falling into slumber even hours later, have tea instead - a cup contains only about 35mg of caffeine. High caffeine-content drinks like energy booster, on the other hand, can keep you up for hours, so drink six hours before bedtime.
