They are related with the Type A personality, which is mainly caused by the caffeine. So, we only suspect
but we do not have statistics or other proofs to incriminate the caffeine as their etiology.
XVI - 168) Parkinson’s disease increase in women using hormones and caffeine, and both sex
with chocolate, and coffee: “Use of hormones was associated with a reduced risk of Parkinson’s disease
among women with low caffeine consumption, and with increased risk among women with high
caffeine consumption. Among hormone users, women consuming six or more cups of coffee per day
had a fourfold higher risk of Parkinson’s Disease.” (Ascherio A, and others).
“Consumption of chocolate was significantly higher in Parkinson's disease patients compared to controls.”
(Wolz M, and others).
“Parkinson's Epidemiology and Genetic Associations Studies in the United States (PEGASUS) included
five population-based case-control studies. One laboratory genotyped four Adenosine receptor
A2A (ADORA2A) and three Cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) polymorphisms in 1325 Parkinson's
disease cases and 1735 age- and sex-matched controls. The coffee-Parkinson's disease association was
strongest among slow metabolizers of caffeine who were homozygous carriers of the Cytochrome P450
1A2 polymorphisms.” (Popat R A, and others).
The men and women don't die with caffeine or chocolate, but they can get Parkinson's disease. It is
fair, is not it?
XVI - 169) Paroxysmal choreo-athetosis: “Paroxysmal choreoathetosis is a movement disorder characterized
by episodes or attacks of involuntary movements of the limbs, trunk, and facial muscles. Involuntary
movements precipitate some attacks, and other attacks occur when the individual has consumed
alcohol or caffeine, or is tired or stressed.” (National Institute of Neurological Disorders and
Stroke).
The Hemifacial spasm can be caused so by the caffeine, and so by the wine intoxication.
XVI - 170) Pellucid Marginal Corneal Degeneration (Keratotorus): Nobody knows its etiology. Is
it not the caffeine?
XVI - 171) Peptic ulcer: “Our results suggest a close correlation between the ulcer-like symptoms and
the amount of coffee ingested by patients with duodenal ulcer.” (Eisig J N, and others).
There are studies showing that gastritis and peptic ulcer are stimulated, as by caffeine, as by decaffeinated
coffee.
XVI - 172) Periarteritis nodosa: “Forty percent of the rats treated with caffeine only or with caffeine
and phenacetin in combination were found to have periarteritis nodosa-like lesions in the mesenteric
vessels.” (Johansson S).
XVI - 173) Physical underdevelopment (Stuntedness). It is a rare condition. It is caused by the caffeine
impairing the growing cartilages when the body is developing. To its occurrence, it is necessary
the simultaneity occurrence of at least three etiologic factors:
The individual inherited very high sensibility to caffeine.
The individual drinks coffee continually since early childhood, or receives caffeine since before born,
by his mother drinking caffeine.
The daily drinks of milk was substituted by coffee, or there was some undernourishment.
Here is one of these patients:
