208 Handbook of Medicinal Herbs Dosages (Coffee) — g crude coffee charcoal/day; the single dose averaging g (KOM) (I suspect that thoroughly carbonized charcoal is pretty well devoid of methyl xanthines); g powdered coffee/720 ml water (TRA); 100–200 mg caffeine or 1.5 cups coffee for bronchodilation (TRA); 250–500 mg caffeine = cups coffee for achlorhydria (TRA) C Contraindications, Interactions, and Side Effects (Coffee) — Commission E reports interactions (but talking more about carbonized coffee charcoal than instant or real coffee): absorption of other drugs (and minerals and vitamins) taken simultaneously might be reduced (AEH) Coffee has been implicated in loss of calcium and magnesium in bones, which bodes ominous for osteoporosis candidates It can also inhibit or interfere with iron absorption and help elevate cholesterol (JLR1(8):4 1995) Toxicologically harmless (up to cups or 500 mg caffeine) for healthy adults habituated to coffee (but hypertensive in neophytes taking 250 g coffee (1.25 cups), increasing systolic blood pressure some 10 mm Hg) Gruenwald et al cautions are not exactly the same echos I am used to They advise caution for those with disposition to convulsions and certain psychic disorders (such as panic anxiety), nephrosis, sensitive cardiovascular system, and thyroid hyperfunction Side effects attributed in part to chlorogenic acid may include diarrhea, hyperacidity, inappetence, and stomach irritation Chronic consumption of >1500 mg/day can lead to diarrhea, dizziness, headache, inappetence, irritability, palpitations, restlessness, sleeplessness, and vomiting Higher doses lead to arrhythmic spasms of different muscle groups, arrhythmic tachycardia, and opisthotonos But not to worry! Fatal poisonings “are not conceivable.” They reiterate the reported death of a child after ingesting 5300 mg caffeine Ironically, that coffee charcoal that Commission E promotes for mussy mucosa might be the best antidote, along with sorbitol, for overdoses of caffeine Nursing mothers may pass caffeine-induced insomnia to the nursing baby Pregnant women should avoid caffeine, never exceeding 300 mg caffeine spread out over the day (PHR) LD50 caffeine = 5–10 g orl human (TRA) Extracts (Coffee) — Not exactly an extract, the carbonized charcoal is described as absorbent and astringent, like most charcoals I hope that physicians will understand what is said in the Herbal PDR, speaking of caffeine and not the charcoal, “it also increases the psychomotor stamina” (PHR) Chlorogenic acid, like caffeine alone, can double gastric secretion (PHR) In hamsters, 20% green coffee bean in diet impedes DMBA-induced tumors COFFEE SENNA (Senna occidentalis (L.)

6–12 g/day dry root or 6–12 ml fluid extract (1:1) (KEB) Contraindications, Interactions, and Side Effects (Coleus) — Not covered (AHP; KOM; PHR) I think of this as a food farmaceutical containing a powerful drug with many activities But as Albert Leung so often and skillfully reminds us, the plant does not necessarily share the activities of its best known chemical constituent (present in tubers at levels ca 0.45%) Contraindicated in hypotension Forskolin may potentiate other drugs Forskolin acts synergistically with calcitonin in inhibiting osteoclastic activity Acts synergistically with hawthorn, which probably inhibits phosphodiesterase, which breaks down cAMP Combining coleus and hawthorn should raise cAMP levels by stimulating production and inhibiting decomposition of cAMP Responses to forskolin are reduced in muscle cells of failing hearts, but since forskolin also raises cAMP, it renders the coleus possibly useful even here COLOCYNTH, BITTER APPLE, WILD GOURD (Citrullus colocynthis (L.)
