Almost everyone you meet is addicted to a plant pesticide, a poison that acts as a central nervous system stimulant.
Here Andrew Huberman admits that most of the studies on caffeine can not be taken at face value:
"Because 90% or more of adults consume caffeine, finding controls for studies is really challenging. That is, finding people who don't ingest caffeine regularly is a very challenging task for the researcher and as a consequence many of the studies of caffeine on human beings involve depriving regular caffeine users of caffeine and then examining the effects of caffeine given after a period of say 5-15 days of abstinence in a person that is essentially experiencing mild withdrawal symptoms because they haven't had the caffeine they were used to getting. (...) It's a point that likely exacerbates the observed pro-performance effects of caffeine."
Well, that seems to be a bit of an understatement. It not only exacerbates them, it makes it impossible to know the effects of actual chronic use.
