Caffeine can boost your energy temporarily, and make you feel more awake and ready for the day. But a lot of caffeine can also lead to symptoms that you probably don’t want and your body can’t tolerate. Check out these examples:
If you drink too much caffeine at one time, it can make you feel nervous or jumpy. Your hands may shake. You may feel like there’s something you forgot to do. Too much caffeine will make it hard to fall asleep, which might mean you won’t be able to pay attention in school the next day.
And too much caffeine can give you a stomachache, headache, or a racing heartbeat. In fact, kids with heart problems should not drink caffeine because it’s known to affect heart rates and force the heart to work harder.
