Long post, sorry. Caffeine: what actually has human evidence behind it, and what is extrapolation from animals?

Most of the popular protocols are borrowed from clinical populations and applied to healthy people without comment.

Vivid dreams and mild headache for the first 14 days, then nothing. Textbook for this class, apparently.

The comparison group matters more than the compound when the outcome is something as fuzzy as focus.

Tolerance builds fastest when it is taken for extra hours rather than extra work.

What would change your mind about this?

Nobody has ever been talked out of a stack by a stranger on the internet.

Same here.

Sleep pressure was my main issue with caffeine too.

Read methods.

I would take the narrow conclusion. Broad ones are more interesting and less true.

Narrow conclusion, briefly right. Broad conclusion, interestingly wrong. I know which I keep choosing.

Read the methods section. It is the only part that says whether the conclusion is allowed to exist.

Cold storage, light protection, date on the vial. Boring, removes half the variables. Sleep pressure was my main issue with caffeine too.

Underdosing and tolerance are indistinguishable from the inside, and everyone picks the flattering explanation.

Same for me with caffeine, unfortunately.

Log dose, time and sleep. Ten seconds a day and it turns the anecdote into something you can look at.
