Caffeine is the most widely consumed stimulant in the worldâand 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. đȘïž

At Berryvive Wellness, we believe in smart, balanced nutritionânot extremes. So today, we encourage you to limit your caffeine intake to just 1â2 cups and hereâs why.
đ« 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 youâve ever had one cup too many and felt like you were about to jump out of your skinâyou 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 doesnât just make you tiredâit:
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 youâre 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. Thatâs 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.
â Whatâs a Healthy Limit?
We recommend sticking to:
1â2 cups of coffee or tea per day (roughly 100â200 mg caffeine) Avoid caffeine after 2 PM to protect your sleep Hydrate moreâbalance every caffeinated drink with a glass of water
đ” 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
