WHAT’S THE DOWNSIDE OF CAFFEINE?
2.
Researchers
are looking into caffeine. Is it good for us? Is
it bad for us? Scientists are discovering that caffeine may be
more dangerous than people think. It has many short-term
effects on your body, including your brain. It also has long-
term effects that can cause serious illnesses.
Caffeine interferes with the way
your body absorbs the vitamins
and minerals it needs to be healthy.
It can make your body lose the fluids
it needs to function well. It can make
you feel nervous and anxious. It can
cause headaches and stomach aches.
