Gonna sound hooky pooky but you shouldnt drink coffee neither, i know im boring like that ):, but i hear that it can affect your nervous system and is higly adicitive. I have a cousin that once got a nerveous breakdown from drinking to much coffe, and while she probably had other issues that caused that, coffee was one of them.

Edit: remmoved a mix up on coffe and energy drinks.

Even as a coffee drinker, yeah, I can generally agree. It’s very easy to drink more coffee than is really healthy for you.

This is potentially misleading and dangerous as drinking too much caffeine in general is bad for you. The average person is fine with one or two black coffees a day, but energy drinks have two to three times the amount of caffeine per serving. I say this as someone who had a nervous breakdown at work from too much coffee AND almost gave myself a heart attack from energy drinks when I was younger. Caffeine is fine in moderation as is any regulated substance, but it is much easier to consume too much caffeine from an energy drink. This isn't even taking into account the extra sugar that energy drinks have in them.

True, sorry for the mix up, gonna change that. All that i was trying to say is that is very adictive. Dont know why i compared it to an energy drink since those are worse in every way.
