5. Irritability
The extreme consumption of coffee can lead to irritability, neurologists say. And this is linked to the issue we discussed earlier, which is an anxiety disorder. A lot of people who suffer from this condition become agitated if they consume less caffeine than the average person.
However, if you notice a change in your behavior (you may feel angrier or more tensed than usual) and know it’s because you increased your daily caffeine intake, it’s time to cut back or replace it with tea.

What about the effect on the kidneys. This needs to be highlighted.
Thank you.
The article is pretty good and very informative. Thanks!
That information was very useful to me because I was one who drink coffee on empty stomach. And with acid reflux it was not good. Drink decaf now and one cup. Thank you once again.
Thank you great info👍🏻
Very informative, thank you.
I have been told ( by doctors ) two cups a day is great for kidneys helps to detoxify. Not my words so take it for what it’s worth and ask your doctor
It contains acid too which is NOT healthy and coffee is a drug as it has side effects (all drugs do). Best to avoid coffee completely as I do. I just turned 84, never touch it and never will and have no desire for it,
Many things out there that people drink or consume and most are not ph balanced. Moderation in all things that one should be mindful of. Stomach acid is highly acidic and will dissolve any organic compounds. Acid in coffee is extremely mild in comparison. If it wasn’t for the mucous lining the stomach the fluids would kill us all. People should keep their personal likes/dislikes opinions out of a serious conversation about this topic or any topic trying to sway others as factual.
This information is very informative and yes, I would appreciate more information about how coffee affects the kidneys.
Thank you kindly,
During college, I probably over-used coffee, so in my early working years, I started realizing I’m one of many people who is “over-sensitive” to caffeine. Since I’m even over-sensitive to so-called De-caf coffee (which you rightly point out still has some caffeine in it), I drink a natural foods product called “Caffix” – which our local natural food store recently discontinued. (Wah.) Hope this article can convince more stores to carry alternative products.
I drink the equivalent of 5 cups/day and have done so for over a decade. Been T2 for over 30yrs. A1C is fantastic, kidneys (uACR) are fine and above avg for a 30yr T2@ according to my Endocrinologist. BMI is ideal, BP avg 110/80, Cholesterol is gold standard and none of these symptoms have ever been experienced. Take this article and the follow up comments with a grain of salt.
