How do you know if there's caffeine in a drink/food?


Question:
caffeine is bad for the body, right? how do you find out if there's caffeine in a drink or food?

also, could you tell me if there's caffeine in Gatorade and Powerade?

Answers:
There is no caffiene in gatorade or powerade.

It is bad in excess, as it is a stimulant, which means it dialates blood vesels, increases heart rate, and heightens brain activity and awareness. this can be bad, as the body can become dependant on it which adverseley affects the body and can even cause headaches. It also can cause sleep problems and assist otehr illnesses in their wrong-doings. it's pretty much a good idea to stay away from caffiene. It can be helpful, but over all, none at all probably isn't a bad idea.

look for "caffiene" in the ingridients listed with the nutritional facts on the containers of most foods and drinks. It will be there if it is caffienated.

Other Answers:
look on the label under ingredients or pepsi says contains if its listed it has it if not it dosent thay are required by law to state weather it has it or not

You can usually read the labels on the wrappers of food. If you are at a resturant you can usually go by what foods have caffeine in them such as chocolates, coffee, or tea. NO Gatorade and Powerade do not have caffeine. I think the Powerade Advantage has caffeine in it though the regular does not.
