> nicotine is significantly more harmful than caffeine

Significantly” is an opinion.

It’s more toxic by weight, yes.

Messes with vascular more than caffeine.

Both are an excellent way to screw up heart health.

> let’s not get started on the CFS stuff, treatments for functional disorders are often placebo-resembling.

Personally haven’t needed or wanted to use nicotine, but I have recovered from an array of chronic illnesses; I’ll get started on anything I please, thanks,

especially seeing how many of my peers are hopelessly exhausted and existing on abusive amounts of caffeine/prescription stimulants to get by.

Plain black coffee has, somewhat surprisingly, been repeatedly demonstrated to be very healthy - with substantial reductions in all-cause mortality as well as the chances of developing cardiovascular disease. I tend to live somewhat spartanly in terms of consumption, and wanted to drop my coffee habit which looks something like this [1], but looking up the data on it left me dropping that idea real fast.

Coffee ≠ caffeine, despite the coy conflations in office memes.

If you’re grinding your own (mycotoxins are real), hard to find a cleaner healthier form of caffeine than coffee!

Lots of morning-and-day soda and energy drink consumers. More than we even see, assuredly.

Off-topic completely now,

but for your information, one last question:

does your opinion cover patents who have blood test results showing Lyme, and one or more known coinfections like Bab, Bart, (all known, and treatable bacterial infections),

or are you another Reddit regurgitation expert?


i think this isn’t going to be a productive conversation regardless of what i say. take care
