That’s 2-4 coffees in a single hit. Then add sugar and taurine. This is the buzz that might be blocking sleep, spiking dopamine, raising cortisol, increasing mood swings and leading to burnout.What starts as a boost can become a brain imbalance.And one can is rarely the only one. So, what if your boost or your kid’s ‘buzz’ is silently burning out yours and their brains?"Protect your brain. Protect your health.Tag someone who needs to hear this.
