A high intake of caffeine can cause toxic side effects that include vomiting, seizures, tachyarrhythmias, and even death. There is no evidence that women and adolescents consume the most caffeine in the United States. The amount of caffeine in coffee and tea is affected by the brand, brewing method, and steeping time. Caffeine increases gastric acid production and lowers the esophageal sphincter pressure which can lead to gastroesophageal reflux and gastritis. The amount of caffeine varies between products and can be determined on the ingredient label.
