Recently, I’ve been thinking about some experiments which I can’t do by myself but would very much like to know the results… therefor, a new series on this blog.
First up the question “can you trick the body into reacting to caffeine with a non-caffeinated fluid”?
Evidently, the body reacts to the chemical caffeine when coffee is drunk. What I would like to know is if it’s possible to trigger the same reaction by drinking a non-caffeinated fluid that tastes and looks the same as coffee.
Cons that it’s not possible:
-If the fluid does not contain caffeine, there will be no reaction because it’s a physical reaction triggered by the intake of such a fluid
Pros that it’s possible:
-There is such a thing as a placebo effect
-If you can quicken your beard growth by thinking about sex, why not invoke a bodily reaction to caffeine intake?
Pending further research…
