Caffeine: how much is too much?
Too much caffeine can cause numerous physical and psychological symptoms of poor health. It could negatively affect reproduction and is suspected of causing some cancers. It can affect cardiovascular functioning, and can even produce symptoms similar to those of mental illness. Despite this broad range of known and suspected effects of caffeine, nurses rarely consider caffeine intake in initial nursing assessments of clients. They should.
