Caffeine and Diet Supplements Side Effect Warnings:

In many of the over the counter drug store diet pills you will note that caffeine is one of the active ingredients. Although many people consume caffeine on a daily basis in coffee and tea with no adverse effects, it can be dangerous for some people.

The caffeine level in some of these so called metabolism and energy booster diet pills can be astronomical. Even if you consume caffeine regularly you may find that these types of pills have very unpleasant effects on you. People have a tendency to think because a product is over the counter, it is safe to use, this isn’t always the case, as many of these products are not evaluated by the FDA.

Always read the ingredients on diet supplements and be wary of cheap pills with high levels of caffeine as a main ingredient.
