They are usually killed after experiments are completed
Here are situations where caution or avoidance is necessary: Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Pregnancy Guidelines : Limit to 200 mg caffeine daily (about 2 small cups) Some research links high caffeine intake to: Increased miscarriage risk Low birth weight Premature birth Caffeine crosses the placenta and affects the developing baby Best practice : Consult your obstetrician about safe caffeine levels Breastfeeding Considerations : Caffeine passes into breast milk (about 1% of consumed amount) Babies metabolize caffeine very slowly May cause irritability or sleep issues in some babies If breastfeeding, limit to 2-3 cups daily and monitor babys response Consider drinking coffee right after nursing to minimize caffeine in next feeding Anxiety Disorders Why Coffee Can Worsen Anxiety : Caffeine triggers the release of stress hormones (cortisol, adrenaline) Can increase heart rate and create physical anxiety symptoms May trigger panic attacks in susceptible individuals Anxiety and caffeine sensitivity often go hand-in-hand Guidelines for Anxiety-Prone Individuals : Start with low amounts (1/2 to 1 cup) and monitor response Avoid coffee during high-stress periods Switch to decaf to get benefits without anxiety Consider L-theanine supplements (from green tea) with coffee to reduce jitters If coffee consistently increases anxiety, its best avoided Sleep Disorders Impact on Sleep : Caffeine blocks adenosine receptors that promote sleep Even morning coffee can affect sleep quality that night in some people Half-life of caffeine is 5-6 hours (stays in system much longer) May reduce deep sleep and REM sleep stages If You Have Insomnia or Sleep Issues : Cut off all caffeine by noon Consider switching to decaf after your first cup Track sleep quality with and without coffee If sleep problems persist, eliminate caffeine for 2-4 weeks to test Acid Reflux and GERD Why Coffee Can Trigger Reflux : Increases stomach acid production Relaxes the lower esophageal sphincter (allows acid to escape) High acidity of coffee itself irritates esophageal lining Management Strategies : Never drink coffee on an empty stomach Choose darker roasts (lower acidity) Try cold brew (60-70% less acidic) Drink with food to buffer acidity Limit to 1 cup daily if GERD is severe Consider switching to low
In previous work, our group combined Latent Transition Analysis (LTA) with Separable Temporal Random Graph Models (STERGMs) to examine selection homophily and peer influence processes in terms of the MECHANISMS study experimental measures of smoking and vaping norms (Montes et al., 2023)
