Fiddleman 4,376 Posted November 19, 2012 Do sugar alternatives like splenda or the older varieties make you tired? I have been getting seriously sleepy lately and continue to go through a lot of mio for my Water intake. On a related note, I am starting to wonder what mio really is and the long term effect on the body. Anyone know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if too much caffeine can actually make you tired and sluggish rather than full of energy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AStephenson 159 Posted November 20, 2012 Maybe your caffeine intake is affecting your sleep quality? When I drink something with caffeine late in the day it takes me longer to fall asleep. http://www.livestrong.com/article/419509-caffeine-effects-and-duration/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ericgaults 1 Posted November 20, 2012 I have been also having quite a bit of caffeine lately from mio energy drinks. I wonder if too much caffeine can actually make you tired and sluggish rather than full of energy? Haven't tried to take too much caffeine or coffee, what I experience is, when I drink coffee, it seems gives an extra energy to continue to stay awake, but there are also time that coffee has no effect for me especially when I am so tired, sleep or rest is the only answer.

Butterthebean 8,146 Posted November 20, 2012 I have been also having quite a bit of caffeine lately from mio energy drinks. I wonder if too much caffeine can actually make you tired and sluggish rather than full of energy? Caffeine, like any stimulant, will give you a surge followed by the inevitable down swing. So yes, in that sense, it can leave you sluggish after the affects wear off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
