How much is too Caffeine?
Most people are not even aware of how much one is consuming just because of a label.
One of many affects...
- Research has shown that newborns whose mother consumed more than 500 mg of caffeine a day had faster heart rates and breathing rates and spent more time awake in the first few days after birth.
- Women who consumed 200 mg or more of caffeine a day had double the risk of miscarriage of those who took in no caffeine.
The more you know..
- Your body's ability to break down caffeine slows, so you end up with a higher level of it in your bloodstream
- This can affect the amount of caffeine that crosses the placenta and reaches your baby, who can't process it efficiently.
- These beverages contain compounds called phenol's that make it harder for your body to absorb iron.
