Caffeine Addiction and student life

— Speech Goal: By the end of my presentation my audience will know about what caffeine is, the effects of it and the withdrawal symptoms

Caffeine in teens: Teens usually get most of their caffeine from soft drinks and energy drinks. (In addition to caffeine, these also can have added sugar and artificial flavors.) Caffeine is not stored in the body, but you may feel its effects for up to 6 hours.

# Which food and beverages contain caffeine

Caffeine is naturally found in the seeds, nuts or leaves of certain plants. These natural sources are

then harvested and processed to produce caffeinated foods and beverages. As example

You can also find caffeine in some prescription or over-the-counter drugs like cold, allergy and

pain medications. It is also a common ingredient in fat loss supplements. Caffeine provides no

nutritional value on its own. It’s tasteless, so you won’t necessarily know if it’s in your food

either. Even some medications may contain caffeine without your knowledge.

# Moderation is the key

Caffeine is usually thought to be safe in moderate amounts. Experts consider 200–300 mg of

caffeine a day to be a moderate amount for adults. But consuming as little as 100 mg of caffeine

a day can lead a person to become “dependent” on caffeine. This means that someone may

develop withdrawal symptoms (like tiredness, irritability, and headaches) if he or she quits

caffeine suddenly.
