Caffeine was conceived for a wide range of readers interested in the effects on human health, nutrition, and physiological function of the methylxanthine beverages and foods—tea, coffee, maté, cola beverages, and cocoa and chocolate products. These products supply one or more of the dietary methylxanthines — caffeine, theobromine and theophylline — and are an integral part of the diet of many people in many countries. The interest in the health effects of both the methylxanthines in isolation and in the products containing them has grown rapidly in recent years.
This comprehensive text gathers in a single volume in-depth information on composition, processing, consumption, health effects, and epidemiological correlations for the methylxanthine beverages and foods and should serve as a useful tool for anyone interested in the methylxanthine– containing products. It briefly covers metabolic and physiological aspects. This design should make this report valuable to physicians, nutritionists, other health professionals, and food scientists.
