Caffeine
Actually, a lot of children who drink soft drinks actually become “stupid”, but once you take the soft drink away from them, their grades improve tremendously -- C's and F's become A's and B's. So, there is something in caffeine that suppresses the enzymes from memory-making. And this is exactly how the plant survives, because caffeine is a toxic chemical - it's a warfare chemical for the plant. Anything that would eat it will lose its art of camouflage, its alertness, good reaction, good response, and becomes easy prey to its own food chain predator....Caffeine is technically an insecticide. So is morphine and so is cocaine. They are the same family of drugs -- neurotoxic substances. The Water Cure: An interview with Dr. Batmanghelidj
But nothing substitutes for water -- not a thing. No drink -- no coffee, no
tea, no alcoholic beverages. Not even fruit juices. Each one of them has its own
agenda. Your body is used to a fluid that has no agenda, because the body
depends on the freedom of that fluid, water, because there are two kinds of
water in the body. There is already occupied and engaged water, which is no good
for new function. The body needs new water, or free water, to perform new
functions. Now, when you give them sugar containing beverages, or caffeine
containing beverages, both sugar and caffeine have their own chemical agenda in
the body. They defeat the purpose of the need for water.
I'm talking about soft
drinks, I'm talking about sodas, I'm talking about caffeine containing coffee or
tea. I'm also talking about alcohol, because alcohol actually stops the
emergency water supply systems to the important cells, such as the brain cells.
In the reverse osmosis process your body filters and injects water into the
cells, and this is what I call reverse osmosis. And it has to raise the blood
pressure for that in order to overcome the osmotic pull of water out of the
cells, and reinject water into the cells. That's why we develop high-blood
pressure in dehydration. And this process of reverse osmosis is stopped by
alcohol. It stops the filter system.

I lost the desire to drink coffee (90%) shortly after I started using my Terminator. I had made a resolution to quit trying to quit drinking coffee before that. As of this writing, it’s been 6 months since that occurred. I had never been able to stay away from coffee for more than 3 weeks before that. This simply tells me that the Terminator provides the energy I used to get from coffee. There’s no down phase of that energy cycle, so it’s not from adrenaline.
