DESCRIPTION: Caffeine has positive cognitive and physiological effects at moderate doses. Have a question about this video? Leave it in the comment section at ‪http://nutritionfacts.org/videos/what-about-the-caffeine/ and I'll try to answer it! The "coffee may reduce cancer risk" is a reference to yesterday's video (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/coffee-and-cancer/). There are additional cognitive benefits afforded by the phytonutrient theanine in green tea. See Dietary Brain Wave Alteration (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/dietary-brain-wave-alteration/), and hundreds of other videos on more than a thousand subjects (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/). Note that the caffeine and pregnancy study is publicly accessible, so you can download it by clicking on the link above in the Sources Cited section.
