Three or four cups of coffee a day may not sound

(EXCESS) , yet some of

the minor symptoms many of us experience (like headaches , indigestion or high


blood

(PRESS) ) may be related to caffeine

(TAKE). A cup of real

coffee contains about 100 mg of caffeine . It stimulates the


heart and kidneys . Heavy coffee
general

(NERVE) system ,

(CONSUME) is likely to produce a

(FEEL) of anxiety.

The effects that caffeine has on the human body depends to some extent on
personality and

(PSYCHOLOGY) factors. People, for example , who take

tranquillizers are often

(SENSE) to caffeine. Drinking more coffee only

makes their symptoms worse.


The long-term dangers of caffeine - such as cancer and heart disease - have been
the subject of much debate , but a recent study has found no significant association
between coffee consumption and any major cause of

(DEAD).

However, it might be worthwhile , trying to find out if caffeine is responsible for


minor

(ILL) by gradually

(REDUCE) the coffee intake. Switching to

tea does not help much because tea also contains caffeine. The same applies to
cocoa and cola drinks.

(CAFFEIN) coffee is not the answer either

because it tends to have a greater effect on your stomach, causing


(DIGEST) and diarrhoea.
(HERB) teas, which contain low levels of caffeine, fruit juices and plenty of
water are the best substitutes. Also watch out for caffeine in painkillers and in cold

remedies; you could end up ingesting several hundred milligrams of caffeine a day
without even

(REALISE) it.
