Answer to Question 1


The answer is, Yes and no Drinks like coffee, tea, and cola that contain caffeine can actually cause your body to increase its output of urine. This is called a diuretic effect. However, this is only a problem if you drink large amounts of these beverages. If you are only drinking 2-3 cups of coffee each day, there is no cause for concern. However, if your consumption is much greater than this, you will need to rely on additional foods and beverages to make up for the water loss due to the effect of caffeine.
