Do
you experience swelling, skin rashes, headaches, and other strange reactions
generally
associated with
food allergies when drinking coffee and soda, or eating chocolate?
If so, you may be
allergic to Caffeine.
Caffeine
is found in many popular beverages, such as soda, and iced
tea.
Caffeine
is found in medicines, such as pain medications, allergy and cold
remedies.
A
1 oz piece of milk chocolate contains roughly the same amount of caffeine
as a cup of decaffeinated coffee:
an average dose of
6 mg. A cup of regular coffee contains between 150 and 655 mg. of
caffeine.
Unusually high doses, or excessive use of stimulants over long periods
of time can result in anxiety, hallucinations,
severe depression, or physical and
psychological dependence.
A
cup of coffee yogurt contains about as much caffeine as a 12-ounce can of cola
