New bracelet allows you to absorb caffeine through your skin
Everyone needs their coffee -- and some, way more than others.
A new "caffeine bracelet" called Joule promises to make consumption that much easier. The bracelet, which also comes in the form of a watch, delivers caffeine to your bloodstream via a process called "transdermal administration." Simply strap it on, and your skin will absorb all the caffeine.

Sounds ... healthy.
While Joule has yet to be released, the product's makers have a well-funded Indiegogo campaign. Their initial fundraising goal was just $15,000, and they've since raised over $56,000.
Here are a few perks (pun intended) Joule hopes to promote:
You can absorb the coffee through your skin FASTER than you can by drinking it.
No coffee stains on your teeth (although you can now get coffee stains on your ... skin).
Doses are administered at regular intervals through that day to prevent overdosing.
Joule stresses that consumers can even wear the bracelet if they were asked to cut back on caffeine for medical purposes.
Medically impossible? Who cares?
