>it's unlikely to do anything other than make you more alert and awake.

I find that extremely hard to believe.

If I drink 5 cups of coffee per day I get heart palpitations, an upset stomach, and am extremely irritable in general. The same goes for my significant other.

I actually went to a heart specialist and wore a heart monitor for 48 hours last year because I was having an irregular heartbeat and would black-out occasionally after jumping up out of a chair. The diagnosis? I'm fine. I just need to ingest less caffeine.

I think I'll stick with my one cup per day, below average amount.

It's just enough to wake up me, keep me alert, without any of the negative effects that caffeine brings with it.
