Just curious.. after reading the last post.

Caffeine and carbonated sodas weakens the body and block maximum hair growing potential.
What is often not realized is that our very diet itself can stress the body. Caffeine (which is in tea, coffee and certain soft drinks) stimulates adrenal activity and with it, the very hormones above that affect our hair. The trend to 'decaf ' is not that much better as decaffeinated coffee contains other stimulants, such as Theobromine and Theophylline, which have a similar affect on the body as caffeine.
That does not mean we should all stop drinking tea and coffee immediately, but if we are concerned about our hair¹s health, we should at least monitor our caffeine intake.
Apart from stimulating adrenal activity, caffeine interferes with the absorption of certain minerals.

Thanks for the very informative link. I think I'll try avoiding too much caffeine so my hair can be more healthy.
There are so many products that have large amounts of caffeine, and people buy and eat the product not knowing that. I wish food labels would say how much caffeine is in the product.
