MM</div></div> More old wives tales... I drink a metric shit ton of coffee, will have a red bull while i shoot and I have no issues. Think about it, they tell smokers not to smoke before, coffee drinkers not to drink coffee and then wonder why people are shaking and uncomfortable. if you smoke -- smoke, If you drink anything with caffeine, continue drinking it... it's more of an issue to stop, than it ever will being doing things as usual.
