Is caffeine a efficient fat burner?

« on: 01/05/2017 10:23:41 »

quick question:

How do caffeine enhance oxidative metabolism?

At which dose do caffeine become toxic to cells?

Many thanks for your input...

Quote from: tkadm30

The LD₅₀ of caffeine in humans ... is estimated to be 150 to 200 milligrams per kilogram of body mass (75–100 cups of coffee for a 70 kilogram adult)

LD₅₀ = Lethal Dose for 50% of the population.
