NATURAL CAFFEINE [CODE NO3786]


Caffeine is a psychoactive CNS stimulant drug discovered by German chemist Friedrich Ferdinand Runge in 1819. He coined the term ‘Kaffein’ which became Caffeine.Caffeine is a methyl xanthine along with theophylline and theobromine.It is a natural pesticide.Caffeine does not counteract the effects of alcohol. Caffeine is a xanthine alkaloid compound that acts as a stimulant in humans. It is a central nervous stimulant, having the effect of temporarily warding off drowsiness and restoring alertness. Every time we drink tea, coffee, cocoa, chocolate or cola we are giving our body a “hit” of caffeine. Along with nicotine and alcohol, caffeine is one of the three most widely used mood – affecting drugs in the world.

Caffeine is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant of the methylxanthine class. It is the world's most widely consumed psychoactive drug. Unlike many other psychoactive substances, it is legal and unregulated in nearly all parts of the world. There are several known mechanisms of action to explain the effects of caffeine. The most prominent is that it reversibly blocks the action of adenosine on its receptor and consequently prevents the onset of drowsiness induced by adenosine. Caffeine also stimulates certain portions of the autonomic nervous system.
