The primary aim of this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study is to assess the short-term cognitive effects of two beverages containing 100 and 300 mg coffeeberry extract (obtained from the fruit of the coffee plant (Coffea arabica) compared to a placebo beverage. The trial will utilise the COMPASS cognitive assessment system and cognitive demand battery (CDB) and mood visual analogue scales (VAS) with assessments taking place at baseline, 60- and 120-minutes post treatment, on four separate testing days separated by 7 days.
