It can relieve headaches.

I agree with all of the article except the above statement. Not in my experience anyway.... ;-)

It can relieve headaches if you have a caffeine deprivation headache, mais certainment.

Many "headache remedies" on the market (in the US, at least) have around 500mg of caffeine (I think that's how much they put in each Excedrin tablet)... Apparently, caffeine withdrawls are one of the MOST common causes of headache in the US.

Personally, when I get a headache I have a tea or espresso. If that doesn't work, then I get out the painkillers.
