Gerolf, I'm with you hehe. I also prefer tea :)
tamhanna, it is individual. Tea helps me being awake more than coffee.

:-) Tea is ok to stay awake, but don't cook it for 20 minutes...
And as I don't drink coffe (never didi it), what is the alternative?
And tea is really good...
I like the flavoer ones... -

Gerolf, also sometimes physical exercises help me, but only if I'm not too tired before them :)

Doesn't coffee make your eyes tired and your heart beat fast? Makes my body awake but my eyes always get sleepy.

Is that how you have stayed awake all night? :P Insomnia isn't good for your health.

If you open the window from time to time, that also keeps you awake, especially in winter :-))

tamhanna, I think you've meant 2000 kcal :). Also AFAIK 2000kcal is not enough for man's body, it is ok for women. Man who does strong physical work needs around 3000 and man with mind work needs around 2500

No way, man who does mind work needs more than man who does physical work. Our brains need a power plant to function! ;) That's why all those nerds are skinny even though they sit down all day and eat junk food.

I wonder if the Trolls could test the effects of their poison (drink) of choice. Alexandra said Marius drinks sodas. Try him on coffee, see his productivity improve ;)

xsacha, mind work of course needs a lot of energy, but physical work needs a lot of more energy.

Tea drinkers may live a longer life, but they don't enjoy it as much :P
Besides, how are we going to test that? Productivity is much easier to test for.Denis: I wonder, mind work + physical work? Does anyone exercise while doing mind work? Maybe sit on an exercise/gym ball (that you have to balance on) while coding?
PS. What do you people in Liechenstein drink? They "live longer":http://www.google.com/publicdata?ds=wb-wdi&met=sp_dyn_le00_in&idim=country:JPN&dl=en&hl=en&q=average+lifespan+of+japanese#met=sp_dyn_le00_in&idim=country:JPN:HKG:CHE:LIE:ITA, on average, than Japanese.

xsacha, the best is to have mind work, phys work, mind work, phys work, etc. It is recommended by all med people I know.
