Major research findings
Caffeine is a widely consumed psychoactive substance found in coffee, tea, soda, and energy drinks. Numerous studies have revealed its potential to enhance athletic performance and cognitive function. However, the extent to which caffeine ingestion influences individual athletic performance is influenced by a multitude of factors such as dosage, timing, training status, and habitual caffeine intake. 68
Research indicates that caffeine might particularly improve performance in short-term high-intensity exercise. 68 Specifically, team sports and power-based sports have shown significant performance improvements with caffeine ingestion. However, this effect is more pronounced in elite athletes who do not regularly consume caffeine. Furthermore, research suggests that caffeine can also benefit resistance training. 68
While the exact mechanism by which caffeine enhances athletic performance remains incompletely understood, it is believed that caffeine stimulates the release of neurotransmitters like dopamine and adrenaline, thereby increasing nervous system excitability. 88 Additionally, caffeine may facilitate increased energy supply during exercise by promoting fat acid utilization in muscle tissue. 88
Moreover, caffeine is known for its effects in maintaining alertness and enhancing attention. 72 Caffeine intake has been shown to reduce reaction time, improve performance on cognitive tasks, and facilitate the encoding of new information. 72 Furthermore, caffeine may help maintain alertness and performance levels in individuals experiencing fatigue or drowsiness. 36
However, it is crucial to be aware of the potential side effects of caffeine, such as anxiety, insomnia, and dependence, which can occur with high doses or long-term consumption. 12
Benefits and Risks
Benefit Summary
Caffeine can potentially enhance athletic performance and cognitive function. It is particularly expected to improve performance in short-term high-intensity exercise. Additionally, it is expected to maintain alertness and enhance attention.
Risk Summary
Caffeine can potentially lead to side effects like anxiety, insomnia, and dependence when consumed in high doses or over long periods.
Comparison between Studies
Commonalities among studies
Many studies suggest that caffeine can enhance athletic performance and cognitive function.
Differences between studies
Research has indicated that the influence of caffeine ingestion on individual athletic performance varies. This is because numerous factors, including dosage, timing, training status, and habitual caffeine intake, play a role.
Consistency and Contradictions in Findings
The effects of caffeine can vary depending on individual body composition, dosage, and timing, making it impossible to apply all research findings uniformly. Furthermore, the long-term impact of caffeine consumption on the body is not yet fully understood.
Cautions regarding Application in Real Life
While moderate caffeine consumption can potentially enhance athletic performance and cognitive function, excessive intake can be detrimental to the body. Therefore, it is essential to consider individual body composition, dosage, and timing when consuming caffeine.
Limitations of Current Research
The effects of caffeine are influenced by individual body composition, dosage, and timing, rendering it difficult to generalize all research findings. Moreover, the long-term effects of caffeine consumption on the body remain incompletely understood.
Future Research Directions
Further research is required to elucidate the long-term impact of caffeine consumption on the body. Additionally, studies that consider individual body composition, dosage, and timing are needed.
Conclusion
Caffeine, when consumed moderately, can potentially improve athletic performance and cognitive function. However, excessive consumption can have detrimental effects on the body. Therefore, it is crucial to take into account individual body composition, dosage, and timing when consuming caffeine.
