XVI - 144) Mitral valve prolapse. We had patients with the simultaneous signs and symptoms of the
caffeine intoxication and the mitral valve prolapse. Was this only a coincidence? Or the Mitral valve
prolapse was caused also by the caffeine in the fetus or at the patient childhood?
XVI - 145) Mood disorder: “Caffeine's effect on mood is complicated and not fully understood. Although
initially it may promote some improvement in mood, notably identified by some slight euphoria
or focused attention, this pattern may give way to a chronic dysphoria.” (Lande, R G).
XVI - 146) Morton's neuroma (Morton's metatarsalgia) aches: We had a mulatta patient, with
White, Black and Indian ancestors, with 55 years-old, 1.60 meters tall (5 feet and 3 inches), weighting
78 kilograms (172 pounds), one child. During an ophthalmologic exam, she referred to us that she
suffered on the last 6 years of daily aches at her left foot, beginning at morning when she stand-up. The
orthopedist after many exams and magnetic resonance, diagnosed it as a Morton's neuroma, and submitted
her to various therapies, but the aches always were there. She used to drink some 5 small cups
(50 milliliters each) of strong Brazilian coffee daily, on her work with computer. Although we never
had a patient with this Morton's neuroma, we suggested her to stop the caffeine and see what it would
result.
After 2 weeks she came back to show us her new eyeglasses, and told us that the left foot's aches disappeared
at the second day without coffee, and did not return again. She noted also that she lost some
pounds, and her clothes became broad. The Morton's neuroma surely remains there. Only the aches
disappeared. She doesn't need more any medications nor physiotherapy.
It is very good to cure a patient so easily, isn't it?
XVI - 147) Motor coordination impairments: “The study population consisted of 27 patients
affected by Migraine without aura (16 females, 11 males) (mean age: 8.7 ± 2.15 years) and 59 typically
developing children (34 females, 25 males)... Migraine without aura children had more impairments in
motor coordination and visual motor integration than control group.” (Esposito M, and others).
Although the authors did not mention it, on our experience the caffeine is the main etiology of these
migraines without aura in children.
XVI - 148) Multiple sclerosis: see above the chapter XIII - Cerebrospinal Fluid Hypertension Syndrome
(Idiopathic Intracranial hypertension without papilledema) (Benign intracranial hypertension)
(Pseudotumor cerebri) – Brain and spinal chord.
“The hypothesis presented in this paper suggests that Multiple sclerosis may be caused by an allergic
or other adverse reaction to certain foods, mostly cocoa products, cola, and coffee. Many Multiple
sclerosis patients have one or more manifestations of other well known reactions to those foods, such
as migraine, urticaria, or gastrointestinal disturbances.” (Maas A G, and Hogenhuis L A).
