Too much coffee?!


Question:

Too much coffee?

How much coffee is too much, like in one day? And if you drink a lot, will it do damage to you?


Answers:
i think about 4 or 5 a day is ok but too much caffeine is not good for you so drink decaff it is much better for you

i recently seen a study on tv that coffee in moderation could even benefit your health-they implied 1-2 cups a day.

s..more than 4 cups per day s too much....
It will give side effects like greediness...cause ulcer..b.p

I think it was a joke but my dad always said that coffee stunt your growth. I would cut down because its caffeine and that is bad for you

more than 4 cups is to much

2 cups in the morning are good for you,so they say

Aside from the fact that coffee gives you a perk, it is also diuretic. To much of it would then cause loss of minerals in the body though urination.
When you feel nauseous, dizzy and disoriented after several cups of coffee, then you've had too much.
A cup or two would be enough for a day.

too much coffee too much danger

Too much of anything is too much, just depends on the person. I make a rule of not drinking coffee after 12, maybe a cup of tea or water,lots of water. You mught be the kind of person who thinks nothing of drinking lots of fizzy drinks?

Up to 4 cups per day is considered okay. Pregnant women could risk low birthweight to their child or even miscarry if exceed recommended limit.

However, same as with all foods or drinks - take within moderation.

As caffeine is found in other products, this list is taken from the attached website: The 300 mg daily limit (or average of 4 cups per day) roughly equals:


4 average cups or 3 average size mugs of instant coffee
3 average cups of brewed coffee
6 average cups of tea
8 cans of regular cola drinks
4 cans of "energy" drinks
400 grams (8 standard 50 g bars) of normal chocolate

i wouldnt call myself an addict but i drink about 8 cups of coffee a day or a 2ltr bottle of coca-cola and find that it keeps me more alert but the only damage it does too me is keep me awake all night if i drink it too late in the evening

drink to ur full for a day and if u feel dizzy or sleepy,cut short the no. of cups.this is bcoz the no. of cups of coffee one can have differs from person to person.i have 2 mugs.more make me dizzy.also as it contains too much of caffeine take care of ur health

not too shure but my dad drinks a min of 10 cups a day its soo bad that if he doesnt have a coffee before he goes to bed he cant sleep
