paraxanthine ≥ caffeine >> theobromine. Theobromine exerts most of its activity by acting as a phosphodiesterase inhibitor and increasing intracellular cAMP. Paraxanthine is claimed to be able to provide the same nootropic effects of caffeine but without the jitteriness, withdrawal symptoms and stomach discomfort. The affinity (KD) values of caffeine for the human adenosine receptors are 12 μM at A1, 2.4 μM at A2A, 13 μM at A2B, and 80 μM at A3. Around 84% of the chlorogenic acid content in coffee is constituted of 5-caffeoylquinic acid. 5-CQA works by increasing the translocation of the transcription factor Nrf2 and increasing cellular antioxidant enzymes.
-->I personally enjoy coffee a lot, usually only in the morning, especially when the weather is warm. I can have a light breakfast and some coffee in the morning and it is enough for the rest of the day. When it's cold outside I find that coffee doesn't do enough so I just don't drink it and I switch to green tea. I have found that taking a triple dose of my daily multivitamins on the day of cessation significantly delays and reduces the severity of the tension headache and the flu-like symptoms I experience upon discontinuing use. I do experience very-very severe withdrawal symptoms. After three days of use they are 100% guaranteed. Sometimes I'll taper off by gradually ingesting smaller and smaller amounts, but paracetamol can also help.
Obviously I would not be writing this unless I find there is something of utmost importance to share. Apart from the traditional methods of brewing ground coffee beans, I just so happen to have discovered something very extraordinary. I am talking about adding excessive amounts of ground coffee to a custard and layering cake sponges along with it, or making fudgy brownie stuffed cookies, where the brownie filling has a lot of ground coffee. At this point I didn't have tolerance to caffeine. Upon consuming two pieces of cake for breakfast I became extremely stimulated and euphoric. I was very much in a flow state and words and ideas were pouring out of me. These effects easily surpass any energy drink and any strong and dark brew I've tried. I have found that consuming the whole coffee bean provides a much smoother effect, a more gradual ascend and long-lasting stimulation. I also felt like I experienced much stronger antioxidant effects, I wasn't jittery and I didn't have a crash in the afternoon, nor did I have withdrawal symptoms the next day.
I strongly advise trying this out as I think that the state this put me in was nothing short of psychedelic. My mind was extremely punctual, elevated and I was grasping and handling concepts and ideas, putting in some very interesting work. This route of administration truly let the power of the coffee bean shine, and I realized how powerful of a drug it really is. I consumed approximately 6tbsp of ground espresso in two pieces of cake without tolerance, so say a few months of break.
