But coffee / caffeine pill alone does not. Also, coffee used to give me a kick, with or without a meal. Any idea why? Only thing that comes to mind is the looking foward synthesis mechanism: unless the body absolutely has all it needs (building blocks *and* energy), it does not initiate protein synthesis / cell or tissue repair. In that context, coffee/caffeine would be akin to a vitamin (cofactor).
