The Dangers of Drinking too much Coffee in your Gainesville Apartment

Whether you’re waking up early to go to work or you have an 8 a.m. class to get to, most people need a little something to get them going. One common source of energy that people turn to is coffee. Loaded with caffeine, with the option to add cream and sugar, coffee can provide a burst of energy to help get your day going. However, although coffee can make you feel up-beat and ready to conquer the world, there are several negative consequences that too much coffee can bring about.

Some of the dangers of drinking too much coffee are:

• High blood sugar levels – when adrenaline is pumping, your body will crave more sugar

• Dehydration – coffee can lead to excessive urination and possibly decrease your body’s water levels

• Insomnia – coffee encourages your adrenal gland to work overtime, which can make it very difficult to relax

• Overworked adrenal gland – coffee provides a short burst of energy because it forces the adrenal gland to work extra hard, but after the sensation passes, exhaustion could follow

• Withdrawals – caffeine is a drug, and like any other drug, if your body becomes over-dependent on it, you will experience constant cravings (some coffee drinkers report getting headaches when they cut back their consumption)

There’s nothing wrong with having a nice warm cup of Joe in the morning to get you going in your Gainesville apartment, but excessive coffee drinking could lead to health issues. That’s why limiting your daily coffee intake is very important.
