Question 1

is it bad too drink alcohol &  caffeine soda if you have osteoporosis in 30 year old male?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Sodas dont have calcium in them and contain phosphoric acid which increases the excretion of calcium worsening osteoporosis. Caffeine also leaches calcium from the bone. Drinking it occasionally is ok however.

Question 2

can caffeine cause anexity?

Accepted Answer

Hmmm...: What do you mean by anxiety?  In my way of thinking, caffeine (espcially in normal amounts) as a drug does not have the pharmacological property of causing ANXIETY.  However, EXCESS caffeine usage in an individual can, by a different number of ways (i.e. too much as in Energy drinks, withdrawal as in cutting back or sudden cold turkey) cause jitteriness, nervoussness, shakiness, etc.

Question 3

can caffeine cause freckles?

Accepted Answer

No: Freckles are caused by sun exposure.

Question 4

can caffeine cause you to be itchy?

Accepted Answer

Uncommon: Caffeine being a stimulant could activate itching but would be an uncommon response. However if you demonstrate the effect repeatedly, it must be valid that it affects you in that manner and I suppose you could block the reaction by taking an antihistamine a half hour before drinking a caffeinated beverage.

Question 8

Question 9

what causes an unusual sensitivity to caffeine?

Accepted Answer

Unanswerable: Please re-ask this question with the words "unusual sensitivity' explained. This is not a medical diagnosis or term or common condition.

Question 10

why and how exactly caffeine causes "sugar crash" ?

Accepted Answer

All stimulants: work like adrenaline, and increase the body's metabolic rate, so we burn more fuel to ensure that we can meet the "fight or flight" response.  So we burn sugar more rapidly, and the low blood sugar actually further increases adrenaline and related chemicals (like dopamine) leading to a vicious cycle.
