CONS:
- Caffeine is a stimulant and a diuretic. This means that every time you consume it, your body loses water. Dehydration can lead to daytime exhaustion, and can also negatively affect the condition of your skin, leaving it dry and vulnerable to premature aging.
- Too much caffeine intake can affect your sleep schedule. The skin mends itself overnight, and sleep deprivation can compromise its natural regeneration abilities. Consequently, this can lead to an increase in cortisol production, which can trigger acne breakouts.
WELLNESS TIP – Double up your water intake for every cup of coffee or tea you drink to offset any potential dehydration and to keep your naturally energy levels elevated.
