Hasn't this been known for, like, a million years?

I thought there might be some value in knowing that a study confirms it.

I personally skip nutrition related studies. It seems that for any given study, there is another one that says exactly the opposite.

[zerothehero]

Absolutely... have to say Michael Pollan is onto something with "nutritionism". Food isn't a linear combination of nutrients.

I'd be incredibly surprised if this was actually the first study that bothered to confirm it. Aren't the effects of caffeine pretty well documented scientifically?

[notsosmart]

Yes, but this one was related to the effects of glucose combined with caffeine.

I smell an easy study generator: take well-established results from single factors, combine them, and then see the relationship of the results (are they additive, multiplicative, completely at odds with one another, etc.).
