Caffeine
Blues: Wake Up to the Hidden Dangers of America's #1 Drug by Stephen Cherniske
Get ready to give up that morning latte and kiss cola goodbye. Here
comes Caffeine Blues, by Stephen Cherniske, M.S., the first book to expose
the dark side of America's No. 1 drug: caffeine. If you are one of the
nearly 80 percent of Americans hooked on caffeine--a natural component
of coffee, tea, and chocolate and a common ingredient in drugs, soda, candy,
and other products--this book will be a wake-up call.
In Caffeine Blues, Cherniske, a nutritional biochemist with more than
25 years of academic research and clinical experience and author of the
bestseller The DHEA Breakthrough, reveals the truth about caffeine and
explains how to kick the habit forever. Cherniske discusses how caffeine
affects the body and brain and why it can increase your risk of dozens
of health disorders ranging from osteoporosis, diabetes, and PMS to hypertension
and heartburn. After spending 300 pages documenting all of caffeine's evils,
Cherniske finally offers a decaffeinated life line: "Off the Bean and on
to Vitality," a step-by-step, clinically proven program to help readers
kick the habit and boost energy levels naturally. --Ellen Albertson
