[Philmont]: FW: Caffeine was Philmont Altitude Acclimation

This thread is becoming ridiculous! Stop preaching to other people about
your eating or drinking habits and how you feel there is a better way to eat
(or drink). Advice on altitude acclimation is one thing, but Brad the trail
Chiropractor has crossed the line. Inasmuch as Brad has listed eight reasons
to avoid caffeine, the same can be said why we should avoid driving, taking
a plane, riding a bike etc, due to numerous inherent safety risks. So,
let's just stick to the core topic Brad.
Thanks,
Steve

Caffine has several effects.It is acidic and the body has to buffer it by
using a calcium supply as a ph neutalizer.
2) Hyperexcites the nervous system
3) Increases Blood Pressure
4) Irritates the Hylin Cartalage & synovial fluid in joint capsules
5) Burns the B's Vit's because of the Nervous System
6) Causes hardining of tissues.
7) Causes increase adreanal response. -- IE burn out.
