The Bullshiter's Bible...

We all have tons of it stored in our wee little brains, but they're getting full.  Best we purge some of it to make room for more.  By the way we didn't research any of this.  Enjoy!  Oh and feel free to send in your own for us to put up, but you're not allowed to research it!  There's definitely potential for us all to learn something here...OR...we could just be talking out our ass!  (Ed - yeah probably)

bulletThe reason that people get a buzz when they consume caffeine is because its depleting a naturally occurring chemical in our system called Adenosine.  Adenosine regulates the flow of information up and down your spinal cord, to and from the brain.  Conversely, when you first wake up in the morning, in order for your body to cope with the levels of caffeine has produced more Adenosine while you've slept, and therefore makes you slower than average...until you take another dose of caffeine.
