The official attitude to the ISSN is as follows:

1. 3-6mg per kg body weight (180-360mg for woman of 60kg, 240-480mg for 80kg man) but not higher doses, has a performance-enhancing effect.

2. Tablet form is more effective than coffee.

3. You perform better even when you're tired or sleep loss (duh!)

4. It has a proven ergogen effect for long-distance endurance sports.

5. There is also a certified ergogen effect for explosive sports with interval-based activities such as football and rugby.

6. It is ambiguous effect on activity with very fast power display that weightlifting and powerlifting. (The positive effect seems to be better when you need to take more reps).

7. There is no evidence that caffeine has a diuretic effect. HAH!
