if only they did a caffiene free over-caffeinated sugary drink company
Why would anyone drink over-caffeinated sugary drink company other than for the energy / caffeine kick. The stuff tastes fucking awful.
Yep.Instant coffee used to give me the shits when I went running.also it can lead to dehydration.

On the 6th day, they replacedsome of the water with 6 cups of coffee containing 642 mg caffeine.The result was an increase in the amount of urine excreted over 24hours. The average increase was 753 ml (+/- 532 ml). At the sametime, there was a decrease in body weight and total body water wasfound to have decreased by an average of 2.7%. This study thereforeshows that a relatively high level of coffee consumption does lead toa degree of dehydration.http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=9194998&dopt=Abstract2. International Journal of Sport Nutrition, Exercise and Metabolism2002 Jun; Vol 12 (no. 2):189-206Caffeine, body fluid-electrolyte balance, and exercise performance.Armstrong LE.Departments of Kinesiology, Nutritional Sciences, and Physiology &Neurobiology, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT 06269-1110, USA.The author reviewed 10 published studies to find whether caffeine cancause dehydration. The overall consensus from the studies is thatcaffeine is mildly diuretic, but only to a similar extent to thediuretic effect of water. The studies, which compared the effects of100-680 mg caffeine with those of water or placebo seldom found astatistically significant effect of caffeine on the volume of excretedurine, and did not associate caffeine with a physiologicallysignificant level of dehydration. It also appeared that individualswho have developed a tolerance to caffeine through regular consumptionare less likely to show any effects of caffeine on body hydration. The author concluded that moderate consumption of caffeince will notadverely affect the fluid-electrolyte balance of athletes and othersports enthusiasts, while people whose lifestyles are more sedentarywill have an even smaller risk because they lose less fluid throughsweating than athletes.members of the general public should be a less risk than athletesbecause their fluid losses via sweating are smaller.http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12187618&dopt=Abstract3.

This was a study in 18 healthy males aged 24-39. They were made todrink various combinations of water and caffeinated andnon-caffeinated beverages. The authors concluded “This preliminarystudy found no significant differences in the effect of variouscombinations of beverages on hydration status of healthy adult males.Advising people to disregard caffeinated beverages as part of thedaily fluid intake is not substantiated by the results of this study.”Full text at: http://www.jacn.org/cgi/content/full/19/5/5915.

They did find a statistically significant differencein the amount of urine produced at rest, with greater quantities beingproduced after consumption of caffeine. However, there was nosignificant difference between the two groups during exercise. Theauthors suggest that the diuretic effect of caffeine might becounteracted during exercise by the increased levels of plasmacatecholamines (norepinephrine, adrenalin, dopamine) that result fromphysical activity. They conclude caffeine consumed in sports drinks“during moderate endurance exercise apparently does not compromisebodily hydration status.”http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=9059904&dopt=Abstract6.

The authors review strategies for the prevention and treatment ofurinary stones. Adequate hydration is one of the key elements ofprevention. “Hydration has proved effective in clinical trials andpopulation-based observational studies; "fluids" may consist of water(any kind), coffee (caffeinated or decaffeinated), tea, beer and wine;grapefruit juice appears to have an unexplained ill effect.” This istherefore indirect evidence that coffee, whether caffeinated ordecaffeinated, does not affect the maintenance of optimal levels ofhydration.http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=11132035&dopt=Abstract

Any thoughts?
I always have a strong fresh coffee before I climb indoors, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that it has a beneficial effect on my session helping me try harder, keep more focussed and motivated....I used to do this myself but now I manage to restrict myself to 2 strong cups a day.
