HOW CAN CAFFEINE MAKE YOU SICK?
9.
A cup of coffee a day probably
isn’t going to make you sick. But
if you consume a lot of caffeine
every day, day after day, it’s
not good for you. Eventually, it
can cause a variety of health
conditions. These range
from uncomfortable to life
threatening.
Caffeine is hard on
the lining of your
stomach and
intestines. Espe-
cially in some
people, it can
cause cramps
and diar-
rhea. It can
also make
you more
likely to get
an
ulcer
.
