For people prone to anxiety disorders, caffeine can make symptoms such as sweaty palms, palpitations, and tinnitus worse.

Because of its analgesic effect, caffeine is often combined with other simple analgesics. However, long-term and large doses of caffeine will only make your condition worse if you already have high blood pressure. Because caffeine alone can raise blood pressure, if it is combined with emotional stress, it will have a dangerous multiplying effect. Therefore, people at risk of high blood pressure should especially avoid drinking caffeinated beverages when they are under great work pressure. Some people who have the habit of drinking coffee all year round think that they are immune to the effects of caffeine. However, this is not the case. A study shows that after drinking a cup of coffee, blood pressure can rise for up to 12 hours.

3. Induce osteoporosis

Caffeine itself has a good diuretic effect. If you drink coffee for a long time and in large quantities, it can easily cause bone loss and have an adverse effect on bone mass preservation. For women, it may increase the threat of osteoporosis. But the prerequisite is that people who do not consume enough calcium in their daily food, or who do not exercise often, and women after menopause, lose calcium due to lack of estrogen. All of the above conditions, plus large amounts of caffeine, may pose a threat to bones. If you enjoy it in reasonable amounts, you can still avoid being discouraged.
