Does Aspirin inhibit protein synthesis?

caffine dialate the blood vessels
aprin thins the blood
ephedrine speeds up the heart

You sure about that? Last I heard was that caffeine is a vaso-constrictor which is why it raises blood pressure, right? If it (caffeine) dilated blood vessels then someone with hypertension or ED would be able to take a caffeine supp to help with their issues.

u are correct. i can't beleive this thread is still poppin

What you are looking for from why you take an ECA stack is Vasodialation. However it is a vasoconstrictor also but in an different area. Read for yourself.

Caffeine's mechanism of action involves increasing the synthesis and release of catecholamines and increasing intracellular cAMP concentration through phosphodiesterase inhibition. These pharmacological effects are demonstrable in multiple organ systems. Central nervous system physiological responses include stimulation of the cerebrum and medulla, resulting in the often desired effect of alertness and hypervigilence. The cardiovascular response includes direct stimulation of the myocardium; however this effect may be mitigated to some extent by concurrent vagal stimulation. These factors sometimes result in ventricular irritability, manifested as premature ventricular contractions. Likewise, direct vasodilation occurs, although this may be counteracted by vasoconstriction from stimulation of the medullary vasomotor center, and may cause either increases or decreases in blood pressure. Smooth muscle is relaxed by caffeine, while skeletal muscle is stimulated.

Wow, some of you guys worry about the most minute shit. I wonder how many oz of muscle this has cost me over the last 25 years...

heres an old thread on protein sythesis & the effects of ibuprofin, aspirin or Naproxen Sodium-

So according to this explanation there is some vasodilation that occurs but it is counter acted by vasoconstriction from stimulation so the end result is vasocostriction either way you look at it. So in the end, caffeine does cause vasoconstriction.
