just curious why you're against the coffee and gum?

If I tell you, you will just argue with me.
**if my question starts out with "just curious" then chances are i'm not asking you to argue.
Butt you can be useful as you have been lately....I understand there is an article in the current T-Mag that I don't have time to review on caffiene......I would even feel indebted if you did a brief review in Diet and Nutrition.
**Just read it. It's just what John Beradi heard at a seminar somehwere. Shame he doesn't mention the actual studies so we can make a proper assessment. I'll have to look on PubMed later and see what i can find.
I did, however, already know that caffiene + a carb meal causes a bigger insulin response than the carb meal alone. So maybe the only recommendation should be to avoid coffee when carbing up?
Want to take is a step further, the late Dan Duchane told me that coffee interferes with insulin regulation (and to avoid it on a cut)via the ??? Randell, Randele, some spelling, cycle. It is something I have never found in physiology texts. Do Chicken Daddys fish??
** "Randle"
Since caffiene stimulate catecholmine release (epinephrine and norepinephrine - or adrenalin and noradrenalin, whichever you're more familiar with) maybe these effect the randle cycle? I'll look into it further later.
Here is a lead:
Caffeine inactivates the enzyme phosphodiesterase, allowing large amounts of glucose and triglycerides to flow into the blood stream. In this respect caffeine produces an effect similar to that of stress.
**Yeah, this explains why it stimulates release of the catecholmines - adrenalin is our "fight or flight" hormone. The triglyceride release in the blood would also explain caffiene's lypolytic effect.
I want w8 to "do" the research on gum, the sugar alcohols associated with "an addicts" inability to control portions....and someone, has got to post some definitive research on "sweet tastes" contributing to hyperinsulinemia! (use that in your caffiene serch too)
** i'll see what i can do.
