Facts relating to Caffeine Consumption
Caffeine can be found in many food items either as a food additive or as a natural component. Beverages and food containing caffeine are coffee, tea, guarana, cola nuts, cocoa, chocolate and some other plants. As for cola beverages, they are made from cola nuts but most of their caffeine is added using purified or synthesized caffeine. It is also allowed to add caffeine to energy drinks although some of them also contain guarana. In addition, caffeine is used in many medicinal drugs for example in the treatment of migraine headaches and overweight. It should also be noted that caffeine is found in many anti-cellulite cream. It is important to know the level of caffeine intake among populations when setting maximum levels for caffeine in beverages. Caffeine is a stimulant, which means itincreases activity in your brain and nervous system. It also increases the circulation of chemicals such as cortisol and adrenaline in the body. In small doses, caffeine can make you feel refreshed and focused. Addition of caffeine to food items other than those naturally containing caffeine makes it difficult for consumers to regulate their caffeine intake. For healthy adults, the FDA has cited 400 milligrams a day—that's about four or five cups of coffee—as an amount not generally associated with dangerous, negative effects. However, there is wide variation in both how sensitive people are to the effects of caffeine and how fast they metabolize it (break it down). To conclude we can say that intake of caffeine in proper amount can prove a miracle for human body.
