Help me research "Why Caffine makes you Hyper?" for my chemisty project. I need stuff like pictures, but what could i have? Also i need a bunch of stuff that has caffine in it, and i need lots of information that has to do with caffine!

If you could help me that would be nice!
 
its called caffeine is a stimulant that increases your heart rate, increases the level of adh released from your pituitary and therefore increases your alertness and 'hyperactivity' if enough is injested.
 
there is also the factor of "expecting" the caffeince to kick in. like what happens sometimes when people take placebos. that would require some heavy duty research if you wanted the chemical structure for that... it would probably involve neurotransmitters. GOOD LUCK!
 
from my old pharmacology notes that i just dug up

increases Ca++ permeability in sarcoplasmic reticulum
promotes accumulation of cAMP
competitive inhibition of adenosine receptors
CNS stimulant
inhibits H2O reabsorption in DCT (diuresis)
relaxes bronchial smooth muscle
 
Erm, hyper? I can drink all the cafeine soda I want (loaded with sugar of course) and go right to bed. While I do admit it wakes me up a bit it in no way makes me want to jump off the walls or whatever the hell else.
 
more tidbits from my own notes, so take it for what you will


PO (by mouth): onset 15 min, peak 30-60min; half-life 3-4 hrs.
