Coffee works faster on men

[Labarum]

Discouraged on Atkins, of course, and I am not a coffee drinker, but it is interesting to note it works faster on men.

BBC NEWS | Health | Men more responsive to caffeine

Also interesting to note decaf has a stimulant effect too, placebo effect? Or more akin to the "cephalic insulin spike" that artificial sweetners can cause?

Anyone know more?

I did not offer an opinion, I merely linked to a report.

Coffee - indeed any stimulant - is bad for you.

As are nicotine, street drugs and alcohol.

I don't use any of them.

I do drink green tea which is very low-caf, and the vanilla extract I use in my natural yoghurt is distilled in alcohol. If I cannot get a decaf cola, I will drink a diet cola - too much and I feel the effect which I don not like.
