Sleeping much? (Assignment Two)

The most interesting source that I’ve found is called Clinical and physiological correlates of caffeine and caffeine metabolites in primary insomnia. It is an article, and it is written by five different scientists. It seems like it is a long and boring article, but it intrigues me because I have major insomnia also. It is a study completed to see what effects caffeine has on someone’s sleeping pattern. Different dosages were tested on people with different food patterns. Some could sleep, while others were wide awake and found it difficult to fall asleep. Many different studies have been done on the effects of caffeine on sleep, and all seem to show that the caffeine used has different effects according to your sleeping pattern as well as how much caffeine intake you have during each day.

I haven’t changed my topic. I’m studying the effects of caffeine on someone’s body. I believe what I have done is narrow it down. It’s still the effects, just on certain parts of the body, mainly sleeping and appetite. I’m also interested in how long it takes your body to have a full recovery from the damage that sodas cause, or if it is even possible that there is a recovery. Sodas can trick your body to feel empty and make you want to eat more, which is unhealthy along with the amount of sugar already taken in from the soda. Most of the challenges I am facing are from my own disbelief. I have drank sodas all my life without a care in the world, and now that I am working on stopping and studying the effects on your body, I do not want to believe that my body could be that messed up from the sodas. I am afraid to admit that I may have truly damaged something key in my body just because I want to drink something.
