Thanks Eric. Not sure if you have seen this recent study;

Studies often change over the years. I was not familiar with the Cortisol issue. Would be interested to know where your info originated. Perhaps it is what Paramahansa Yogananda was talking about in the SRF lessons when he mentioned the detriments of caffeine in spiritual life. I think mostly because it impairs memory function.  I will quote it here when I come across it. I think I would be more receptive to a Masters guidance rather than a scientists studies however I do find that caffeine diminishes my craving for food while at the same time acting like speed on my bio functions and mental processes.
