I found a great
article by the mayoclinic that gives some signs that you are drinking too much caffeine. In the article they state that nine out of ten Americans rely on caffeine to get rid of fatigue and get through the day. Here are some signs that you may be drinking too much caffeine:
- If you consume more than 500 to 600 mg of caffeine a day. This is equivalent to drinking about four to seven cups of coffee.
- If you are jittery during the day.
- If you are having trouble sleeping.
- If you experience heightened anxiety or restlessness.
- Flushed face
- Headaches
- Accelerated heartbeat
- Nausea
To track how much caffeine you are taking in daily check out this website that tells you how much caffeine is contained in different foods and drinks:

ReplyDeleteI was at work the other day and a co-worker had just taken some caffeine pills, but ended up taking more than she had planned. I was really surprised to see how jittery she actually was. She was super anxious and couldn't sit still. Pretty crazy.
