Caffeine is a excitotoxin. It effects the nervous and cardiovascular system. Some people may experience tachycardia ( rapid heart beat) and shakiness a few hours after drinking caffeinated beverages.

Sugar may also affect some people in the same way if they consume too much.

Sugar is also an immune lowering agent. Do you notice most people get sick around the holidays? It's partly because of the stress that comes along with the holidays, but also because of all the excess sugar consumed found in cookies, candy and bakery goods that is eaten around the holidays too. With the decrease in the immune system from the sweets, and the increase in the parties and more people around (along with their viruses they have or are carrying), a

greater risk of viral contraction is possible.

Sugar is also the greatest thing for cancer reproduction or beginning. When the immune system is lowered, the body cannot fight off cancer cells that are trying to form and the process begins. If sugar is consumed while cancer is present, it allows the cancer to reproduce due to the body's inability to continue to fight at its strongest.

Sugar is also one of the number one causes of pancreatic cancer. To make a long discussion short, when sugar is consumed, the pancreas needs to work overtime to release more insulin to absorb the excess glucose being created. This overworking can lead to pancreatic cancer or failure.

One of the now known causes of pancreatic cancer is soda ( or pop as some of you may know it). Which is basically sugar and caffeine. Some people think of switching to Diet Soda to make things healthier. Wrong choice! Artificial sweeteners are now known as neurotoxins which cause a variety of health conditions including weight gain, increase of diabetic symptoms, symptoms of Parkinsons and MS ( studies have shown, many people who were newly diagnosed with these two diseases were actually poisoned by artificial sweeteners and after discontinuing for awhile, the symptoms dissipated.
