Do any of you folks have any idea of the almost infinite quantity of b***s*** about pharmaceuticals and other ingestibles spread by all kinds of truly crazy people here on the web? If we want and intend to use the net for our own purposes and to our own advantage we really have to take an awful lot with a grain of salt and not freak out over some of the nonsense we all encounter several times a day. And this is particularly true when dealing with ingestibles of any type, whether products of big pharma or the kinds of things you find in so-called "health" stores.

If something as widespread as caffeine or coffee consumption was contraindicated for a product like Zoloft, don't you think we'd in some way have been alerted by our pdocs or the package inserts or the information dealt out on the respectable websites like the Mayo Clinic or WebMD? Or are you members of the various conspiracy cults to which so many belong?

I'm in no way putting down or dissing the individuals who raised the question here in this thread. They're concerned. But if you believe even fifteen percent of what you read on the net without checking it out seriously, as we all have the capacity to do, you're in deep, deep trouble.
