I came this article about how the foods we eat, how much we exercise and how much we sleep affects our brain and our health. Here’s a quote from the article about caffeine:

“With prolonged use, it can interfere with the brain’s ability to reach deep sleep and become fully rested, which means that the person will feel tired in the morning and be more inclined to take even more caffeine.”

I don’t know about you, but I run myself on the ragged edge quite a bit of the time, and am almost never without a diet soda or a cup of coffee/latte in my hand. Maybe caffeine is not so good for me after all. There is also a part of the article that mentions how caffeine affects sugar levels in the blood. Check out the article for more info; here’s a link:
