In his book Caffeine Blues a famous researcher‚ health educator‚ and clinical nutritionist Stephen Cherniske compares remaining healthy and strong throughout life to a battle. “Caffeine is the Trojan horse. It looks like a gift but instead delivers adrenalin stress‚ low blood sugar‚ mood and energy swings‚ fatigue‚ depression‚ malnutrition‚ and disturbed sleep”. Although caffeine is considered a mild drug‚ the consequences of caffeine addiction are rather severe and include physical and mental health

Teratogenetics: Caffeine as a teratogen Chase Palmer Fremont High School Hansen p.4 Abstract The purpose of this paper is to identify the teratogenetic affects of caffeine in unborn children and breast feeding children. The following topics will be discussed: Risk of congenital anomalies‚ risk of spontaneous abortion‚ risk of low birth weight and preterm labor as well as‚ the critical period of the teratogen‚ short term and long term affects‚ and the changing danger of the teratogen relating

Lab report As part of my module Nip1002 I was required to perform a set of observational skills which included; pulse‚ blood pressure‚ respirations‚ hand washing and urinalysis and then compare them to previous results. In this lab report I am going to discuss blood pressure in detail. Procedure * Explain the procedure to the patient and gain consent * Wash hands thoroughly following the hand wash technique to prevent the transfer of bacteria * Clean equipment e.g. blood pressure cuff

Chemistry Lab Report Water Hydration Introduction: A hydrated crystal or hydrated occurs when water becomes tightly attracted to a metal salt base on it’s polarity. The water molecules maintain integrity as molecules‚ however they are considered to be part of the formula of the hydrate. When the hydrate metal salt crystal is heated‚ the attractions to the water are broken by the heat energy and the water escape from the crystal. After heating the salt crystal is called as anhydrous‚ which

INTRODUCTION The measurement of fluid flow is very important in our daily life from measurements of blood-flow rates in human artery to the measurement of liquid oxygen in a rocket. In this experiment‚ students are to adapt to various ways to measure the flow of essentially incompressible fluids by using the flow measuring apparatus. Students will also be able to understand the application of Bernoulli’s equation in this experiment. The flow is measured by using a venture meter‚ an orifice meter

ABSTRACT. In this experiment‚ we test factors which affect friction. We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whetherthe surface area ofthe block orthe type ofsurface affectsfriction. We found that the surface area of the block did not change the coefficient of kinetic friction‚ while the types of materialsin contact were directly related to the coefficient of kinetic friction. INTRODUCTION Friction is a part of our everyday life. Nearly every movement we make involves friction
