Well, I’m not really qualified, but reading the abstract, they took a bunch of pictures of the brains of a small group of people, did some stats analysis where it is all linked, and the pictures seem to suggest that the CD group might feel less, be worse at processing whatever it is they do feel and suck more at moving parts of their body compared to the NCD group because all the feely parts and some of the movey-limb parts have fewer functional connections. Anxiety might be higher, especially if they’re male. I’ve been drinking coffee since I was 4 years old, so that would suck and maybe explain why I can’t do sports so good. Not all bad news, the CD group might have more functional connections between the seeing parts of the brain and the movey parts. Just going to quote this last part, seems like plain enough English: “In conclusion, higher consumption of coffee and caffeinated products has an impact in brain functional connectivity at rest with implications in emotionality, alertness, and readiness to action.” So, if you drink a lot of coffee, for like a long time, your fight or flight instincts are probably cranked too high. I think they probably also want more grant money so that they can take more brain pictures which honestly seems like a cool gig.
