Summary: I disagree with the previous person!
Comment: Caffeine is good! It always seems to get rid of my headaches, and it provides me with lots of energy. The side effects are barely noticable to mild. I may be a caffeine addict, yes, but without caffeine...the world wouldn't be the way it is now!

Overall this product gets a 5 out of 5!

Summary: Caffeine Supplementation is Not a Good Weight Loss Plan
Comment: Caffeine has an energizing effect on the central nervous system, as it is a stimulant. A typical cup of coffee has about 100 mg of caffeine. Caffeine is used in several supplements, those being weight loss products and "stay alert" products, such as Vivarin.

In doses of 100-200 mg, caffeine can increase alertness, relieve drowsiness and improve thinking. The average person in the US consumes about 200 mg of caffeine per day through coffee drinking.

Like any "drug", caffeine is not without its adverse effects. At doses of 250-700 mg/day, caffeine can cause anxiety, insomnia, nervousness, hypertension, and insomnia. Over 1000 mg/d can cause tachycardia, palpitations, insomnia, tinnitus, and cognitive difficulties. More than 10 grams of caffeine is lethal.

Ironically, caffeine can make it more difficult to lose weight because it stimulates insulin secretion, which reduces serum glucose, which in turn can increase hunger. For this reason,(and other medical reasons as well, it is hard to make a case for promoting the use of caffeine as a weight loss product. I'd avoid this product if your intent is to lose weight.
