We spoke with a pair of cousins, one an Army veteran, the other a current member of the Navy, about some of the toughest situations they've found themselves in. Army basic training, according to Mates, is all about discipline. It's about knowing your role and not stepping out of line. And if you do, well, you pay a price.

Caffine is the most popular and probably the most studied of all drugs, and serious adverse effects in real life have resisted demonstration. There are pop claims about caffeine interfering with absorption of iron and vitamin d; if there were any real effect on real human beings, it would be obvious by now.
Moreover, caffeine is diuretic and causes dehydration, and it is important to be hydrated particularly while nursing. Thus, it is advisable to limit caffeine consumption while breastfeeding with not more than two or three cups of tea, coffee, or caffeine beverage each day (4). In the US, not more than 200 mg caffeine a day is recommended for breastfeeding mothers. It comes to about two mugs of tea or one mug of filter coffee or two mugs of instant coffee, a day. NHS recommends that you have caffeine drinks occasionally, rather than every day, if your baby is young.
