He nodded gravely. “That’s really not good, all those interruptions. Sleep quality is just as important as sleep quantity.” The interruptions were undermining the amount of “deep” or “slow wave” sleep I was getting, something above and beyond the REM sleep I had always thought was the measure of a good night’s rest. But it seems that deep sleep is just as important to our health, and the amount we get tends to decline with age. According to Chinese legend, the Chinese emperor Shennong, reputed to have reigned in about 3000 BCE, inadvertently discovered tea when he noted that when certain leaves fell into boiling water, a fragrant and restorative drink resulted. [247] Shennong is also mentioned in Lu Yu's Cha Jing, a famous early work on the subject of tea. [248] In healthy children, moderate caffeine intake under 400mg produces effects that are "modest and typically innocuous". [74] [75] As early as six months old, infants can metabolize caffeine at the same rate as that of adults. [76] Higher doses of caffeine (>400mg) can cause physiological, psychological and behavioral harm, particularly for children with psychiatric or cardiac conditions. [74] There is no evidence that coffee stunts a child's growth. [77] The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that caffeine consumption is not appropriate for children and adolescents and should be avoided. [78] This recommendation is based on a clinical report released by American Academy of Pediatrics in 2011 with a review of 45 publications from 1994 to 2011 and includes inputs from various stakeholders (Pediatricians, Committee on nutrition, Canadian Pediatric Society, Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, Food and Drug Administration, Sports Medicine & Fitness committee, National Federations of High School Associations). [78] For children age 12 and under, Health Canada recommends a maximum daily caffeine intake of no more than 2.5 milligrams per kilogram of body weight. Based on average body weights of children, this translates to the following age-based intake limits: [72] Age range

Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction: Supercritical carbon dioxide is an excellent nonpolar solvent for caffeine, and is safer than the organic solvents that are otherwise used. The extraction process is simple: CO 2 is forced through the green coffee beans at temperatures above 31.1°C and pressures above 73 atm. Under these conditions, CO 2 is in a " supercritical" state: It has gaslike properties that allow it to penetrate deep into the beans but also liquid-like properties that dissolve 97–99% of the caffeine. The caffeine-laden CO 2 is then sprayed with high-pressure water to remove the caffeine. The caffeine can then be isolated by charcoal adsorption (as above) or by distillation, recrystallization, or reverse osmosis. [207] By default the app starts enabled, and works every 59 seconds. There are some command line switches you can use to alter this behaviour: In 1895, German chemist Hermann Emil Fischer (1852–1919) first synthesized caffeine from its chemical components (i.e. a " total synthesis"), and two years later, he also derived the structural formula of the compound. [267] This was part of the work for which Fischer was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1902. [268] Historic regulations

However, studies have observed mixed results, and some people may experience negative side effects at intakes of less than 400 mg per day ( 2, 4).A systematic review and meta-analysis from 2014 found that concurrent caffeine and L-theanine use has synergistic psychoactive effects that promote alertness, attention, and task switching; [57] these effects are most pronounced during the first hour post-dose. [57] Physical performance By the 15th century, coffee was being cultivated in east Africa and traded across the Arabian peninsula. Initially, the new drink was regarded as an aide to concentration and used by Sufis in Yemen to keep them from dozing off during their religious observances. (Tea, too, started out as a little helper for Buddhist monks striving to stay awake through long stretches of meditation.) Within a century, coffeehouses had sprung up in cities across the Arab world. In 1570 there were more than 600 of them in Constantinople alone, and they spread north and west with the Ottoman empire.
