Caffeine is the most widely consumed stimulant in the world—and for good reason. It can boost alertness, enhance mood, and even improve focus. But just like anything else, too much of a good thing can backfire. đŸŒȘ

At Berryvive Wellness, we believe in smart, balanced nutrition—not extremes. So today, we encourage you to limit your caffeine intake to just 1–2 cups and here’s why.

đŸš« The Side Effects of Too Much Caffeine

1. Increased Anxiety and Jitters

High doses of caffeine can stimulate your nervous system too much, causing:

Restlessness Racing heart Shaky hands Feeling on edge or irritable

If you’ve ever had one cup too many and felt like you were about to jump out of your skin—you know exactly what we mean.

2. Disturbed Sleep Patterns

Caffeine has a half-life of about 5 to 7 hours, which means even that afternoon cup can affect your sleep at night. Poor sleep doesn’t just make you tired—it:

Increases hunger hormones Slows metabolism Impacts mental focus the next day

3. Digestive Issues

Overconsumption can irritate your stomach lining, leading to:

Acid reflux Bloating Upset stomach

If you’re experiencing gut issues, caffeine might be part of the problem.

4. Increased Dependence

Your body can build a tolerance to caffeine, meaning you need more and more to get the same effect. That’s a slippery slope toward dependence and withdrawal symptoms like:

Headaches Fatigue Mood swings

5. Impact on Nutrient Absorption

Too much caffeine can interfere with the absorption of important nutrients like:

Iron Calcium B vitamins

This can affect everything from your energy levels to bone health and immunity.

✅ What’s a Healthy Limit?

We recommend sticking to:

1–2 cups of coffee or tea per day (roughly 100–200 mg caffeine) Avoid caffeine after 2 PM to protect your sleep Hydrate more—balance every caffeinated drink with a glass of water

đŸ” Try This Instead:

Herbal Teas like chamomile, tulsi, or peppermint Detox water with lemon, cucumber, and mint A quick walk in sunlight to naturally energize your body

Final Thought from Berryvive 🌿

Your body deserves calm energy—not caffeine-induced chaos. Today, challenge yourself to pause, breathe, and fuel your body in a gentler, more sustainable way.
