Fact of the Day: 03/05/2021

  1. Why does coffee (and sometimes tea) give us an energy boost? This is due to a drug within them called caffeine. Caffeine is a stimulant drug and works to do just that; it stimulates our nervous system, keeping our brains more alert and our senses in tune. Caffeine can be a great addition to most tiresome mornings, however, as with any other drug, too much is never a good thing. Side effects of excessive caffeine use includes addiction, anxiety, insomnia, and high blood pressure. So, try to keep your caffeine consumption down to a cup of coffee (2-3 cups of tea) a day or less, and you’ll find it to have some great benefits! Happy sipping!
