caffeine increas heart rate

Well, to be specific, caffeine (like most pyschoactive drugs) exerts its effect on us by altering the activity of some of our neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are the nervous system%26#039;s way of conveying messages between neurons, and also to muscle tissue. Some neurotransmitters that caffeine is known to increase the activity of are norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin. The increase in norepinphrine is likely what causes the heart rate to increase, however each of these neurotransmitters has some stimulatory effects. Norepinephrine, however, is a powerfully stimulating neurotransmitter; it is associated with the %26#039;fight or flight%26#039; response, which of course includes an increased heart rate. I believe it may effect epinephrine as well, which is similar to norepinephrine except that it is also a hormone (and a neurotransmitter). This means it has both short and long lasting stimulatory action.

Hope that was helpful!

1. Studies have shown that caffeine elevates both blood pressure (BP) and heart rate, which may come as no surprise to coffee drinkers familiar with the lift that the beverage delivers. The investigators found that caffeine raised average blood pressure by about 4 points, and pushed average heart rate up by about 3 beats per minute.

The researchers caution that, if sustained by regular coffee-drinking over a lifetime, these increases in blood pressure and heart rate will elevate the risk of stroke and heart disease. Many other studies, some including tens of thousands of subjects followed over decades, have failed to establish a conclusive link between even heavy coffee consumption and cardiovascular disease. The investigators explained that those epidemiologic studies have not focused specifically on coffee consumption, and often rely on subjective measurements of caffeine intake.

2. caffeine increases the strength and frequency of heartbeats

3. Effects on the heart

Caffeine increases the levels of cAMP in the heart cells, mimicking the effects of epinephrine. cAMP diffuses through the cell and acts as a %26quot;secondary messenger,%26quot; activating protein kinase A (PKA; cAMP- dependent Protein Kinase). This increased PKA activity increases the responsiveness of cardiomyocytes to the calcium currents that control beating.

According to one study, caffeine, in the form of coffee, significantly reduces the risk of heart disease in epidemiological studies. However, the protective effect was found only in participants who were not severely hypertensive (i.e. patients that are not suffering from a very high blood pressure). Furthermore, no significant protective effect was found in participants aged less than 65 years or in cerebrovascular disease mortality for those aged equal or more than 65 years.
