If you have osteoporosis or low bone density, caffeine should be limited to less than 300 mg per day (approximately 2-3 cups of coffee). It is also a good idea to get extra calcium to make up for the amount that may be lost in the urine.
Complications of malaria. Malaria is a serious illness that can get worse very quickly and can be fatal if not treated promptly. It can also cause serious complications including: 1  severe anaemia â where red blood cells are unable to carry enough oxygen around the body, leading to drowsiness and weakness.
P. falciparum can cause severe malaria because it multiples rapidly in the blood, and can thus cause severe blood loss (anemia). In addition, the infected parasites can clog small blood vessels. When this occurs in the brain, cerebral malaria results, a complication that can be fatal.
