A member asked:
How much caffeine from energy drinks can i take before i overdose on the caffeine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
200-300mg: 200-300mg of caffeine daily (equivalent to 2-4 cups of coffee) is generally thought to be safe for most adults, although this amount varies widely depending upon your metabolism & sensitivity. Once you hit 500-600mg daily, your risk for side effects increases and tends to outweigh any benefits.
