en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffeine
Caffiene is a bitter, white crystalline xanthine alkaloid that is a psychoactive stimulant drug. In humans, caffeine is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant, having the effect of temporarily warding off drowsiness and restoring alertness. Beverages containing caffeine, such as coffee, tea, soft drinks, and energy drinks enjoy great popularity.

Caffeine is the world’s most widely consumed psychoactive substance, but unlike many other psychoactive substances it is legal and unregulated in nearly all jurisdictions. In North America, 90% of adults consume caffeine daily.

Caffeine makes pain relievers 40% more effective in relieving headaches and helps the body absorb headache medications more quickly, bringing faster relief

Caffeine is found in varying quantities in the beans, leaves, and fruit of some plants, where it acts as a natural pesticide that paralyzes and kills certain insects feeding on the plants. It is most commonly consumed by humans in infusions extracted from the cherries of the coffee plant and the leaves of the tea bush, as well as from various foods and drinks containing products derived from the kola nut.

Caffeine Intoxication and Addiction
Caffeine, one of the world’s most popular psychoactive substances, is sought for its central nervous system stimulant effects. If coffee, tea, and soda alone do not provide the desired stimulation, some consumers are turning to the newest fad in the caffeine market, energy drinks. These beverages are loaded with caffeine and sugar, infused with herbal additives, and marketed particularly to youth. Caffeine produces dose-dependent symptoms, and intoxication may develop with overconsumption. Caffeine is also recognized for its addictive properties, and discontinuation results in a withdrawal syndrome.

Energy drinks pose a unique challenge to health care providers and the community at large. Advertisements appeal to youth and are made attractive by claims of increased performance, attention, endurance, and weight loss. Products are printed with the logos, "zero crash," "sustained energy," and "party like a rock star." Manufacturers of the energy drink Cocaine went so far as to print the word cocaine on the can in such a manner that it resembles a line of illicit powdered cocaine.
