#CaffeineAwareness
From frappuccinos to energy drinks, kids encounter caffeine everywhere. 

It’s important not to forget that the amount of caffeine in each beverage varies extensively, especially in popular energy drinks.
Health Canada’s recommendations on caffeine intake for women of childbearing age and children is no more than 300mg & healthy adults no more than 400 mg.
Check the label when you are purchasing products and monitor how much you (and those in your care) are consuming so you can cut back if necessary. It’s important to educate your child about caffeine and offer them non-caffeinated alternatives to help them develop healthy habits.
