Objective
Although caffeine is consumed daily by more than 300 million EU citizens, its overall impact on quality of life remains unclear. Accordingly, the aim of this project is to characterise the effects of dietary caffeine as consumed in coffee, tea, soft drinks and chocolate. The project, the most comprehensive study of its type untaken anywhere in the world, brings together a large multidisciplinary team of scientists and consumer organisations. The project will include:
(a) basic and applied experimental studies of the effects of caffeine on physiological processes, and physical and mental functions;
(b) epidemiological studies of health and well being in caffeine consumers; and
(c) a pan-European programme of information dissemination to consumers, government and industry.
