Caffeine-loving Bacteria to Clean Caffeine-polluted Waste Water 

5/13/2014

0 Comments

 

Are at the point now, where we must find ways to deal with the consequences of our love affair with caffeine? 

Caffeine and methylxanthine are brought to us mostly by chocolate, sodas, energy drinks, tea and coffee - and now CaffeinAll™. Many of us are undeniably grateful for that. But these compounds have become a common pollutant in wastewater and surface waters. We must start to remove them now to forestall another attack on our own and our planet's environment.

Fortunately, University of Texas and University of Iowa researchers, led by Jeffrey Barrick, have a solution! 

They have created a strain of E. coli that is so addicted to caffeine that it dies without it. This discovery shows promise for a variety of beneficial applications. The most obvious is that of decontaminating caffeine-polluted water. Byproducts from processing and brewing coffee beans are often rich in nutrients that can also be extracted. Another application could be to help purify coffee waste.

Harvard School of Public Health Diabetes Study:  Boosting your caffeine intake may lower the risk of diabetes.

5/5/2014

A recent research research study, measuring changes in caffeine consumption rather than absolute intake, found some very interesting results:

  • An increase in coffee intake can help lower the risk for adult-onset diabetes. 
  • People who boosted their coffee intake by "moderate to large" doses had a lower risk for adult-onset diabetes than those with stable consumption.
  • Those who increased their daily caffeine dose by about 1.5 cups a day over a four-year period had an 11 percent lower chance of developing type 2 diabetes.
  • The boost in consumption appears to affect diabetes risk in a relatively short amount of time.

This was in comparison to those whose intake remained constant. 

The team was led by Shilpa Bhuphathiraju of the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston. Their study tracked the diet and lifestyles of more than 120,000 health sector workers.  For more detail, watch our video below:

Kicking Our Crowdfunding Campaign Preparation into High Gear

Crowdfunding campaigns and videos go in hand, don't  they? Here we are, getting ready for the shoot in our pilot lab. 

We are unable to show the video yet - this segment is only one part of it - but what we can do is to post the script for our part here:

JUNE

Hi I’m June, and I’m one of the co-founders of Caffex, which makes Caffeinall. I’m a gym instructor and my day starts at 5am and often goes to midnight. I needed a way to stay energized throughout the day but I didn’t want the sugar in energy drinks or having to rush off to the bathroom every time I drank one. Luckily, my husband is a food scientist so I turned to him to see what could be done about it.  

Did you know that caffeine is actually good for you in a number of ways?

 - It boosts alertness.
 - It also reduces headaches.
 - It produces energy for the muscles and cuts the risk of crash in endurance sports.
 - It can lower the risk of stroke up to 20%
 - It can reduce the risk of diabetes up to 9% 
 - And it can enhance long-term memory and may even restore cognitive function!

STEVE

Hi, I’m Steve. When June told me her problem I began experimenting to turn caffeine into a non-bitter powder, that can be sprinkled on anything and blended into drinks. I chose caffeine because of it’s unique ability to go straight into the bloodstream.

Because it’s so effective, caffeine is good only in moderation, that is up to 400 mgs a day for healthy adults.

JUNE & STEVE

Thanks for taking the time to watch our video and learn more about Caffeinall. It’s our goal to bring this powder that packs a punch to the world. Please support us today by backing our campaign and sharing with friends. You’ll love your new source of energy!  

Our thanks to Pete and Brian from Envision Video, who made this shoot easy and fun!
