Higher habitual dietary caffeine consumption is related to lower experimental pain sensitivity in a community-based sample.
The primary objective of this observational study was to determine whether caffeine consumed habitually as part of a daily diet was associated with experimental pain sensitivity using noxious stimuli in a non-clinical sample of 62 community-dwelling adults between 19 and 77 years old. The investigators indicated that results revealed individuals who habitually consume greater amounts of caffeine as part of their daily diets demonstrated diminished sensitivity to painful stimuli in a laboratory setting.
