    Do you mean the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry were there?

    Caffeine.

    Mmm, you can enjoy your morning (afternoon or evening) cup but you should try to be mindful of your "overall caffeine" intake (was gist) as for some folks like me & Jack too much had negative serious effects via larger daily doses above Medical recommendations !

    However, if you have a history of high blood pressure or heart arrhythmia, it's probably best to steer well clear of caffeine they'll defo tell you.

    Your best bet: Talk to your doctor about what level of caffeine intake is best for your unique mental & medical circumstances - as i did being part of a regular testing research programme for my illness!



    Jack Clark is from York & attended the local football academy & still takes time (like Byram) to pop in giving encouragement with advice to young pro's & hopefully his "experiences" will be learnt upon.

    As i stated its about choice & each to their own. 🤗

    A decent, sensible & neutral professional view on what doctors wish patients knew about the impact of caffeine is below by American Medical Association.

    For some reason, I am very sensitive to the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee. Even 1 latte makes me heart beat faster. So I take tea. Once, I went for an interview in London. The girl taking care of my visit, asked if I wanted a cup of coffee. I said that I preferred tea. She asked if I had anything with it, ( milk, sugar) and I said no. She said no problem and went off to get it and I saw her chatting to some colleagues. When she came back we chatted about work. I was so nervous that I didn't realize till I had almost finished the cup that she had given me a large cup of coffee. My heart was racing the whole day. I cannot understand to this day, how I didn't realize it was coffee not tea.

    You were focused on something else. In this case the interview. Not exactly a mundane thing.

    Wait until you get older. it really get's bad. The single point of focus outweighs everything. It might be something as simple and not falling in your cluttered garage and you forgot why you came out in the first place.

    I'll be politically incorrect and also say that men are way worse than women on the single point of focus. I don't think anyone really "multi tasks" well but some do it better than others.

    I am also "happiest" when I'm focused on one task. If I'm trying to repair the car or something around the house I really just want to focus on that until I get it done. A strong sense of accomplishment when completed.

    Quite a few papers from the last 6 years or so which suggest that with certain intake limits caffeine has many beneficial and few harmful effects.

    Look at the paper by Poole, Kennedy et al on the benefits or Morales-Brown.

    The accepted wisdom that coffee is bad for you is slowly being challenged and the orthodoxy changed to it having benefits rather than being neutral.

    4 cups a day seems to be well within ‘safe’ limits .

    Whilst it is a stimulant it is not hugely addictive with no cravings etc outside of a 24 to 48 hour window. Habituatuon means you should have days with lower consumption if you want to get the full benefits later.

    A lot of critics have been converted by some of the new evidence - eg Prof Tim Spector.

    Caffeine intake is hard to isolate to test it by itself as you can’t just consume caffeine. Historically, a lot of the research seems to have failed to exclude the effect of other foods or habits such as smoking.

    Like anything some people will be more or less affected (I have mates who don’t drink caffeine in any form after midday) and some people may have conditions a or risk factors than mean they need to be very careful but for the rest of us - time for another cup….

    Byram out until 2024. We have no luck in this position. Spence is a specialist right back. I just don't like right footed left backs.
