What is Caffeine?
Caffeine is a natural stimulant most commonly found in coffee, tea, and certain plants like cacao. It works by stimulating the brain and central nervous system, helping to reduce fatigue and enhance alertness and focus. Chemically classified as a psychoactive drug, caffeine blocks the action of adenosine, a neurotransmitter that promotes relaxation and sleepiness. In addition to its natural sources, caffeine is also added to many soft drinks, energy drinks, and over-the-counter medications. As the world's most widely consumed psychoactive substance, moderate consumption of caffeine has been linked to various health benefits, including improved cognitive function and mood. However, excessive intake can lead to side effects such as insomnia, jitteriness, and increased heart rate.

How Much Caffeine should I take?
The recommended dosage of caffeine varies based on individual tolerance, age, and health factors. For most healthy adults, a moderate daily intake of 100-200 mg of caffeine is considered safe. This equates to about 1-2 cups of brewed coffee or 2-3 cups of tea. Consuming caffeine in moderate amounts can enhance alertness, boost mood, and improve focus. However, exceeding 200 mg per day may lead to side effects like restlessness, insomnia, rapid heart rate, and headaches. For sensitive individuals or those with certain health conditions, even lower doses can cause adverse effects. It’s important to monitor caffeine intake from all sources, including coffee, tea, energy drinks, and supplements, to ensure safe consumption levels.
