Too much caffeine?

[CritAnime]

The text under my username when I post says "Too much caffeine". But... How can you get too much caffeine? Isn't it the more the better?

It's like anything other legal stimulant. In small doses it's fine. In larger does it can cause lots of health related issues. People can build up a tolerance to caffeine and need more in order to get any kind of 'hit' from it.


Here is a list of stuff that can happen from drinking too much.

• Jitters, Restlessness, and Nervousness
• Increased heartbeat
• Nausea
• Anxiety
• Heart palpitations (cardiac arrhythmia)
• Insomnia
• Sweating
• Dizziness
• Vomiting

I have read about full on heart attacks happening because too much has been consumed but I am unsure how much was actually consumed. I would presume that there are underlying health issues too in order to cause this.

You can be 100% healthy every day for 10 years but you will still PAY thousands of $$$$ every single year for your "free healthcare".

I would rather pay into a system and know that I will be treated regardless of social or economical status than pay private insurance and not be guarenteed to get treatment. Don't forget that our taxes and national issurance pays for hospitals, ambulances, clinics, nurse led units, gp's and a whole lot of other things.
 
Also where did the depressed technology bit come into it? Didn't know technology had got to the stage where it could get depressed. :huh:
 
Oh and I work for the NHS. We have some of the best medical devices money can buy in our new hospital. Would hardly call it dated, useless or even "depressed"
