Book Summary
This book exposes caffeine’s darker side that scientists know, but the coffee, tea, pharmaceutical,
and energy drink industries have tried to suppress. Caffeine is a highly addictive stimulant
with serious side effects and is toxic in large doses. Most caffeine consumers are not aware that they
are addicted. But without their daily caffeine intake, they will experience a wide variety of withdrawal
symptoms such as severe headaches, anxiety, muscle tension, irritability, depression, lightheadedness, sluggishness,
nervousness, and a burning desire for caffeine, which can relieve their painful discomfort
instantly. However, caffeine dependence has serious and dangerous consequences.
The Truth About Caffeine explores short- and long-term health issues associated with caffeine consumption.
Studies have linked caffeine to heart disease, fibrocystic breast disease, breast cancer, gastrointestinal
problems, and central nervous system disorders. The book uncovers health issues associated with caffeine
use, its role in adrenal depletion, and negative effects on pH balance. Discover how eliminating caffeine
from your diet can not only improve your life, but quite possibly save it.

” —BookReview.com
“This is a book that goes far beyond what I already knew about coffee and caffeine. My scare came years ago when I became cystic, requiring some extra doctor visits and some surgical removals in the office. During that time I read a small news item linking caffeine intake to breast cysts. At first the doctor wasn’t convinced. But when I stopped my caffeine intake, my cysts disappeared. It was the only change. He became a believer.
But caffeine has far deadlier consequences. It is a factor in a multiple of problems from stomach problems to dizziness to the inability to focus or sleep restfully to cancer. Furthermore, the smaller the individual the harder the dosage hits. Think about what we’re doing to our kids in allowing them to imbibe often almost lethal doses in an assortment of products, the main one, of course, being pop.
This is only a small part of the information in this revealing book about the dangers of caffeine and coffee (even decaffeinated since it contains other toxic substances). Instead of adding a new medication when exhibiting a problem, check your intake of caffeine/coffee. Quitting just may be the answer. A book every adult, every parent and every health care professional needs to read. ” —Carolyn R Scheidies AUTHOR'S CHOICE
“The effects of caffeine on the human body are diverse. This drug can cause Central Nervous System and cardiovascular disorders and can exacerbate or cause hypoglycemia, Peptic Ulcer Disease, and Gastro-esophageal Reflux disease. Current studies underway are examining caffeine effects as a fetus-damaging and gene-development drug; the effects of caffeine on oral contraceptives; the effects of caffeine as a cause of fibrocystic breast disease. Ms. Kushner includes a helpful section listing the caffeine content of favorite coffees, teas, and soft drinks. Except for chocolate, products high in caffeine have no nutritional value.” —Laurel Johnson - Midwest Book Reviews

About the Author
As more people than ever before become aware of the risks of improper diet and nutrition, Marina Kushner delivers her message on the dangers of caffeine
to an ever increasing audience anxious to improve its health and well-being.
Her book, The Truth About Caffeine, explores the historical and social impact of caffeine throughout the ages. The book provides vital information to help consumers make informed decisions regarding their caffeine consumption.
Marina Kushner was born in the Soviet Union and raised in Moscow. Kushner received her education at Moscow University, majoring in journalism, and worked for a major Russian newspaper Izvestia. Working under the pressure of daily deadlines, Kushner, as her colleagues, made it through the day on a diet of coffee and cigarettes. In 1991, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Kushner decided to take a long-awaited trip to New York City, where she had the good fortune to meet her future husband. She chose to make New York her home. Adjusting to the many obstacles of a new country such as cultural and language barriers, Marina
Kushner quickly undertook the task of studying English and creating a life for herself in America. Kushner chose to make her health her #1 priority and became very interested in nutrition. She learned that caffeine consumption is linked to heart disease, pancreas and bladder cancer, hypoglycemia, and central nervous system disorder and decided to write a book in order to help to shed light on the harmful and often under-reported facts about caffeine. The Truth About Caffeine, published by SCR Books, LLC and released in March 2006, provides readers with insights into the dangers of caffeine. Marina Kushner continues her efforts regarding caffeine awareness. She has contacted the FDA to request that it require manufacturers to list the exact amount of caffeine on products offered to consumers.
In 2003, Marina founded the Caffeine Awareness Alliance (CAA), a non-profit organization dedicated to educate consumers, health care providers, and the
resale about caffeine dependence. CAA sponsors National Caffeine Awareness Month, a nationwide event, held annually in March. Recognized by numerous state
and city governments, the campaign helps enlighten consumers about the real risks associated with caffeine and the benefits of a caffeine-free lifestyle. Additional information on caffeine dependence and intoxication can be found on her website: www.CaffeineAwareness.org
