Do acai and caffeine mix?
Many acai berry products are laden with
fillers that reduce the health benefits you’re
supposed to be getting from this vitamin-
packed fruit
Caffeine is a common filler that can be
harmful to your body

Caffeine is an energy booster
It stimulates the central nervous system,
warding off drowsiness and restoring
alertness

Caffeine can be habit-forming
Caffeine withdrawal has unpleasant side
effects

As caffeine stimulates the adrenals, it
weakens them and causes fatigue
The more you ingest caffeine, the more cups
of coffee you’ll need to stay alert
Before you know it, you’ve become a caffeine
addict

Caffeine side effects
The most evident side effects are nervousness,
heart palpitations and insomnia
Caffeine addicts tend to develop a
dependence on tranquilizers and sleeping pills
to keep them calm or help them sleep

Caffeine overdose can lead to peptic ulcers,
gastro-esophageal reflux disease, headaches,
diarrhea and uterine fibroids

As with many addictive substances, caffeine
withdrawal is no fun
Quitting cold turkey can make you feel
restless and irritable

Upset stomach
Muscle twitching

take away the health benefits the acai
promises

When buying acai berry juice drinks, make
