Caffeine: How Is This Drug Affecting Your Diet Plan?

Do you reach for your morning java? Can you operate throughout the day without coffee? Turns out, you are not alone. Nowadays, coffee is one of the most popular stimulants. Do you know the dangers of caffeine or what it might be doing to your body?

Let's find out.

The negative side affects of drinking more than 400-600 mg of caffeine per day.

? Nervousness

? Anxiety

? Usually fast or irregular heart beat

? Slight moderate muscle tremors

? Sleeplessness

? Irritability

? Agitation

? Headaches

These are the major side effects of overconsumption of caffeine. If you are consuming caffeinated beverages to keep awake during the day, maybe the cause is not enough sleep during the night.

Does caffeine cause you from falling asleep at night? This could be you are drinking a large amount of caffeine prior to going to sleep.

So what am I getting at? Try to limit your caffeine to less than 200mg per day. Get that sleep that you deeply deserve.

Here are some tips to reducing your caffeine during the day. Start out slow, you will get there.

Look at the bottle label (this is concerning energy drinks) check the mg of caffeine that is in it. Keep it below 100mg.
Gradually cut the amount of coffee you drink each morning. Instead of drinking the whole pot, only consume one or two 6 ounce cups.
Try decaf coffee. The taste rarely changes on decaf beverages and you will not feel the buzz and crash later.
Keep a list. Document how much mg of caffeine you are drinking. Keep tabs on how many cups of coffee you drink. The smaller the list the better you may feel.
