I didn t even realize we were poor until the Army recruiter held out his offer of 340 a month. It was too much to resist. No longer would breakfast consist of an old pickle jar half-filled with black coffee, loaded with lots of sugar and topped off with half a pint of heavy cream - a thousand calorie meal that cost only about a quarter and produced nothing worse than a mild degree of nausea, and perhaps an extra bit of lining for my coronaries. 

Caffeine qualifies as an addicting drug because it presents qualities of reinforcement and its withdrawal induces a syndrome of symptoms. These include headache, drowsiness, fatigue, decreased performance, depression, and occasionally nausea and vomiting. Symptoms appear within 12-24 hours of last caffeine use, peak at 20-48 hours, and last about 1 week. Although withdrawal symptoms are more common in moderate to heavy users of caffeine (in excess of three cups of coffee a day), it can also occur with low to moderate intake (235 mg/day, equivalent to 2.5 cups of coffee). 

Cardamom is also used internally for indigestion, nausea, vomiting and pulmonary disease with copious phlegm and also as a laxative to prevent stomach pain and griping, as well as flatulence. The seeds are also chewed to sweeten the breath and taken to detoxify caffeine in people drinking excessive amounts of coffee. 

Tea and coffee have been popular beverages for centuries, primmly because they contain the stimulant caffeine. It stimulates respiration, the heart, and the central nervous system, and is a diuretic (promotes urination). It can cause nervousness and insomnia and, like many drugs, can be addictive, making it difficult to reduce the daily dose. A regulcu coffee drinker who consumes as few as four cups per day can experience headache, insomnia, and even nausea upon withdrawal from the drug. 

Large doses of caffeine can cause nausea and vomiting. Caffeine is a potent stimulant of hydrochloric acid secretion (20) and has been incriminated in exacerbating duodenal ulcers. However, decaffeinated coffee has also been reported to be as potent as instant coffee in stimulating gastric acid secretion (20). 

As with many other substances, like alcohol, tobacco, and coffee, the kava beverage for most people has an acquired taste. Thus in naive users, a number of adverse effects may be noted including headache and nausea, especially if a high dose is consumed. Authors who are unused to kava or are unsympathetic to it have described its taste and effects in fairly negative terms, comparing it to washing-up water, muddy water, chalk swimming in body sweat, etc.

Rahn and Konig (1978) recalled previous findings suggesting that phenols and other moderately acidic organic components could be responsible for the frequently observed nauseous symptoms of sensitive coffee drinkers. It was not known whether there is a specific component that is responsible for nausea. This was why they analyzed an ether extract of a coffee infusion, analysis of which allowed the identification of three new coffee constituents 3-methyl- (H.26), 4-ethyl- (H.29) 1,2-benzenediols and...

Overdose of coffee may result in restlessness, nervousness, excitement, insomnia, flushed face, frequent urination, stomach ache, nausea, tremors, talkativeness, periods of inexhaustibility, and irritability (Hughes et al. 1991). 

In 1685, the French apothecary Philippe Sylvestre Dufour (1622-1687) published a famous book Trait6s nouveaux curieux du caf6, du th6 et du chocolate , wherein he ascribed, in contrast to popular belief, a number of beneficial pharmacological effects to coffee. He argued that the ingredients of the drink counteracted drunkenness and nausea as well as menstrual disorders, and... 

One can develop both a tolerance for the xanthines and a dependence on them, particularly caffeine. The dependence is real, and a heavy user (>5 cups of coffee per day) will experience lethargy, headache, and perhaps nausea after about 18 hours of abstinence. An excessive intake of caffeine may lead to restlessness, irritability, insomnia, and muscular tremor. Caffeine can be toxic, but to achieve a lethal dose of caffeine, one would have to drink about 100 cups of coffee over a relatively short period.
