A wide, editorial-style flat lay on a warm, matte cream stone surface, shot from slightly above in soft natural morning light. On the left, a ceramic espresso cup in muted terracotta holds dark coffee, with a few roasted coffee beans scattered beside it. In the center, a small wooden board holds three bright red chili peppers, one sliced open to show pale seeds, next to a small pile of coarse red pepper flakes. On the right, a pair of minimalist off-white running shoes with sage green accents rests at an angle, and a slim stopwatch with a clean white face lies in front of them. Three small matte white capsules sit in a neat row at the center of the composition, a quiet nod to the placebo and the active doses. Soft shadows fall to the lower right. A sprig of dried eucalyptus and a folded linen cloth in oatmeal tones add texture at the edges. The palette is warm and restrained: terracotta, chili red, cream, sage, and charcoal brown, with a gentle pop of red as the focal accent. The depth of field is shallow, so the foreground beans are slightly soft and the chilies and capsules stay crisp. The mood is clean, modern, and magazine-like, in the style of a contemporary health and science journal. There is no text, no people, and no logos, and plenty of negative space on the upper left and right edges leaves room for a headline overlay.

카페인·캡사이신, 10km 달리기에서 위약보다 우수… 캡사이신 단독 효과는 없음

BY COACH RYAN · 2026년 10월 17일

최근 크로스오버 실험에서 카페인과 캡사이신을 동시에 섭취했을 때만 위약보다 좋은 성과를 보였으며, 캡사이신만 복용하면 효과가 전혀 나타나지 않았다. 통계적으로 의미 있는 차이는 전적으로 카페인 덕분이었고, 두 물질 간 시너지 효과는 확인되지 않았다. 75 kg 체중 기준 6 mg/kg 카페인 용량은 약 450 mg에 달해 커피 4~5잔에 해당한다. 카페인 복용군에서는 불면, 불안, 두통, 빈맥 등 부작용이 더 많이 보고되었으며, 20명 참가자를 기반으로 시도해볼 사람과 피해야 할 사람을 정리했다.
