How many cups of coffee a day can a person drink?
Caffeine is a stimulant, and an overdose can be lethal. As for other side effects, caffeine is similar to other stimulants. If you do not regularly consume caffeine, I would avoid taking more than 2 cups in any 4 hour period.The median lethal dose of caffeine is anywhere between 150 and 200 milligrams per kg of body weight in a human. A cup of coffee has around 100 milligrams of caffeine.So, you would need around 2x your bodyweight in kilograms of cups of coffee to kill yourself. There have been no known instances of lethal caffeine overdoses from drinking coffee alone. Probably because drinking that much coffee would be impractical for even the most dedicated person.Now, even at lower doses, there can be severe adverse side effects, and these are probably what you're interested in.Overdosing on caffeine can result in palpitations, twitching, and nervousness as well as increasing your heart rate. But since caffeine is a drug easily adapted to, its hard to determine what dosage would result in significant side effects for a given individual.Caffeine operates by binding to the adenosine receptors without activating them, stopping adenosine from activating them. Adenosine has an inhibitory effect on the central nervous system. Taking caffeine regularly will cause your body to increase the number of adenosine receptors - thus blunting its effect.As for myself? I have some form of innate resistance to stimulants including caffeine. I don't regularly consume it, it does almost nothing for me. I can fall asleep after taking a 200mg pill.

I drink two pots of coffee a day is that safe?
First, is it decaf or regular? If it's decaf, there shouldn't be any problems. However.... For years, my daddy drank 1 pot of regular coffee per day and has remained healthy. His doctor said he's healthy as a horse and if my daddy cut back on his coffee intake after all those years, it could actually do more harm than good. I do believe 2 pots of regular coffee is overdoing it though. I'd talk to your doctor and try to cut back SLOWLY if you drink regular coffee and not decaf. It also depends on how many years you've been drinking 2 pots of regular coffee. Like I said, if it's decaf coffee, there shouldn't be any issues. Frequent urination perhaps? It's good for flushing out the kidneys I guess.
