Dear
Bar . it true
that caffeine
may be ben-
eficial in the
fight against
Alzheimer's disease? Taylor.

A

nswer (continued from
last time): Dear Taylor,
Last time. I spoke about
some promising research with
mice that indicated that caffeine
consumption may produce some
potentially significant cognitive
benefits for Alzheimer's sufferers.
It's important to note; however,
that laboratory studies with mice,
although scientifically useful, are
by no means a perfect predic-
tor of similar biological/medical
results in humans.

For some people, caffeine intake
carries it's own health risks that
should be balanced against
.,.,(. potential benefits. Some of
, those downside risks are:

,.'./ i • Irritability/nervous-
(
' ness;

• The jitters/muscle-

• A diuretic effect (dehydration);
• Withdrawal symptoms (e.g., ir-
ritability, tremors, headaches)

Your physician or registered dieti-
tian can help.
