Caffeine is one of those drugs that we just tend to accept in society and there are reasons for it. Caffeine is in coffee and coffee is one of those popular drinks that people accept as social and not dangerous, a little jolt can help you at work and lots of research indicates that caffeine can improve concentration.
Thats Fit has an article about how the elderly can be helped in various ways using caffeine.
