How much caffeine is too much?<\/p>\n
Knowing the facts about caffeine and your health is a must!<\/p>\n
Let's dig deeper and finally answer the question, how much caffeine is too much?<\/p>\n
\t\t In just 6-weeks on our FOUNDATIONS<\/u> Program, you'll transform your health and body, for the rest of your life!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant found naturally in some plant-based foods and drinks.<\/p>\n It's commonly added to energy drinks, dietary supplements, some medications, and other foods or drinks.<\/p>\n While caffeine can offer you numerous benefits, in excess it may cause problems for your health.<\/p>\n That's why knowing how much caffeine is too much is so important.<\/p>\n Ingesting caffeine offers pros and cons, but nearly 85%<\/a> of people in the United States consume at least one caffeinated drink daily.<\/p>\n Some of the many benefits associated with caffeine include:<\/p>\n Studies<\/a> show that ingesting caffeine one hour prior to exercise can improve exercise endurance and performance.<\/p>\n The National Institutes of Health (NIH<\/a>) reports that caffeine can enhance weight loss, decrease gradual weight gain over time, and stimulate fat burning.<\/p>\n \t\t Fit Mother Project is the first sustainable health & weight loss program designed exclusively for

designed exclusively for *busy* mothers like you... <\/p>\n Learn More ><\/span><\/a>\n <\/div>\n Answering the question “how much caffeine is too much?” can be difficult, as everyone is different.<\/p>\n But for many healthy adults, the NIH<\/a> suggests that 400-500 milligrams of caffeine per day appears to be safe.<\/p>\n The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA<\/a>) says 400 milligrams of caffeine daily for most healthy adults is a safe upper limit.<\/p>\n This amount of 400 milligrams is present in about 4-5 cups of regular coffee.<\/strong><\/p>\n The FDA recommends children and teenagers avoid caffeine and women who are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breastfeeding further limit caffeine intake (based on their doctor's instructions).<\/p>\n Caffeine isn't for everybody, especially in large amounts.<\/p>\n Possible negative effects associated with excessive caffeine intake include:<\/p>\n Caffeine consumption has addictive properties, with possible withdrawal symptoms if you stop consuming it abruptly.<\/p>\n If you're consuming more caffeine than what's safe and healthy for you, gradually cut back on it to reduce unpleasant symptoms \u2013 such as drowsiness, anxiety, irritability, and headaches.<\/p>\n \t\t In just 6-weeks on our FOUNDATIONS<\/u> Program, you'll transform your health and body, for the rest of your life!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Some caffeinated drinks are healthy for you, while others … not such much!<\/p>\n Evaluate the following caffeinated foods and drinks and their caffeine content to determine which, if any, are right for you!<\/p>\n Unsweetened coffee is a healthy choice, in moderation, as coffee contains natural antioxidants and caffeine but it's low in calories (containing 5 calories or less per serving).<\/p>\n The caffeine content in different types of coffee is as follows:<\/p>\n Studies<\/a> show that consuming coffee regularly (3-4 cups per day) can reduce your risk of all-cause mortality, heart disease, cancer, neurological problems, liver disease, and metabolic conditions.<\/p>\n Green coffee bean extract inhibits fat accumulation<\/a> and can enhance glucose metabolism.<\/p>\n Like coffee, tea is loaded with health-promoting antioxidants but contains just 5 calories or less per serving.<\/p>\n Antioxidants found in tea, particularly green tea, can reduce your risk of illnesses and chronic diseases.<\/p>\n The caffeine content of different types of teas is as follows:<\/p>\n Studies<\/a> show that drinking black tea regularly can reduce your risk of heart disease.<\/p>\n Additional research<\/a> shows that green tea can increase collagen and elastin content in your skin to diminish signs of aging and reduce your risk of Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders.<\/p>\n The National Institutes of Health<\/a> reports that green tea and green tea extract can increase energy expenditure and fat-burning, decrease fat absorption, and optimize healthy weight management.<\/p>\n Many types of regular and diet sodas contain caffeine.<\/p>\n While consuming caffeine in moderation can offer some benefits, drinking soda isn't the best for your health.<\/p>\n Sodas are often loaded with added sugar or other preservatives but contain little to no essential nutrients.<\/p>\n Regular and even diet sodas are linked with weight gain and abdominal obesity<\/a>.<\/p>\n The caffeine content in specific types of soda is as follows:<\/p>\n Regular soda also contains nearly 150 calories per can from added sugar.<\/p>\n Studies<\/a> show that drinking soda and other sugar-sweetened beverages can affect brain health.<\/p>\n Researchers found that sugar-sweetened beverages can increase the risk of stroke, dementia, sleeping problems, memory impairment, motor coordination, and attention-deficit\/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children, as well as cognitive impairment and childhood obesity when consumed during pregnancy.<\/p>\n So steer clear of soda whenever possible in favor of water, coffee, or tea!<\/p>\n \t\t Let us show you how you can start losing weight this week!
