TOPIC OF PRESENTATION IS CAFFEINE ADDICTION AND STUDENT LIFE. BELOW IS SOME POINTS THAT I WROTE IF IT MAY HELP.
Caffeine Addiction and student life
— Speech Goal: By the end of my presentation my audience will know about what caffeine is, the effects of it and the withdrawal symptoms
Caffeine in teens: Teens usually get most of their caffeine from soft drinks and energy drinks. (In addition to caffeine, these also can have added sugar and artificial flavors.) Caffeine is not stored in the body, but you may feel its effects for up to 6 hours.
# Which food and beverages contain caffeine
Caffeine is naturally found in the seeds, nuts or leaves of certain plants. These natural sources are
then harvested and processed to produce caffeinated foods and beverages. As example
You can also find caffeine in some prescription or over-the-counter drugs like cold, allergy and
pain medications. It is also a common ingredient in fat loss supplements. Caffeine provides no
nutritional value on its own. It’s tasteless, so you won’t necessarily know if it’s in your food
either. Even some medications may contain caffeine without your knowledge.
# Moderation is the key
Caffeine is usually thought to be safe in moderate amounts. Experts consider 200–300 mg of
caffeine a day to be a moderate amount for adults. But consuming as little as 100 mg of caffeine
a day can lead a person to become "dependent" on caffeine. This means that someone may
develop withdrawal symptoms (like tiredness, irritability, and headaches) if he or she quits
caffeine suddenly.

2. The ability of caffeine to make someone more awake and alert is what attracts many
people to it. According to Mayo Clinic, up to 400 mg of caffeine is safe for a healthy adult daily
(Caffeine: How much is too much? 2020). This amount is equivalent to about caffeine content in four cups
of brewed coffee or 10 cola cans. Intake of coffee is discouraged for children. For the adolescents and
young children for which most students fall within should be tak...
