Caffeine….

Good morning…Do you have a breakfast today? 


How about a cup of coffee…

Caffeine is a bitter substance found in coffee, tea, 
soft drinks, chocolate, kola nuts, and certain medicines. 
It has many effects on the body's metabolism, including 
stimulating the central nervous system. This can make 
you more alert and give you a boost of energy. 
For most people, the amount of caffeine in two to four cups 
of coffee a day is not harmful. However, too much caffeine 
can make you restless, anxious, and irritable. It may also keep 
you from sleeping well and cause headaches, abnormal heart 
rhythms, or other problems. If you stop using caffeine, you 
could get withdrawal symptoms. Some people are more sensitive 
to the effects of caffeine than others. They should limit their use 
of caffeine. So should pregnant and nursing women. Certain drugs 
and supplements may interact with caffeine. 
So, enjoy a cup of coffee now…
