Abstract

Caffeine, Taurine and Arginine are one of the most widely used supplements from people of all ages. There are lot of controversial information about their proper use and effects and side effects. Our goal is to determine the reasonable boundaries of using these supplements in healthy people and more important in people with socially important diseases like high blood pressure, diabetes and dementia.
