How many cups of coffee should you drink a day?

[JeffD]

Should? How many cups should you drink? As many as you want.

If a cup is 6 oz (as is the coffee "cup"), then I drink a bunch, because I use 12 oz mugs. Two in the morning, and several more throughout the day.

Cups are for infants... step up to gallons or give it up!

Thanks for the great information.
For me 3-4 cups a day is a sweet spot, keeping me alert and energized without going overboard.
But I listen to my body, and if I'm feeling jittery or having trouble sleeping, it might be time to cut back a bit.☕️😄

2 in the morning and that is it. After that my tummy is telling me hold on big fella.

I listen to my body. And my body says, "lets have a cup of coffee" and so I do.

So I go through 60 oz of coffee a day, so that is ten coffee cup cups or six small mugs, or five regular mugs.

Generally, 3-4 cups daily is considered safe, but effects differ. Monitor sleep, heart rate, and jitteriness. Listen to your body. For more insights on overall health, check out https://betterme.world/articles/how-many-calories-do-you-burn-a-day-doing-nothing/. Stay health!

Self titration is the way to go. It means, drink coffee until you feel some discomfort, then back off one cup from that level.

about 2-3 cups a day. That's how many servings help me feel good throughout the day. I often order coffee for work and it happened that I received the wrong coffee and I contacted starbucks customer service to report this. It was nice to receive a gift card from them.

Good information. I would like to add here that coffee without milk and sugar is considered better. But most people in India serve coffee with milk and sugar. It is common here that if you order a hot cup of coffee in any restaurant then you won't be given black coffee, but with milk and sugar.

Considered better by who? Not by me. I love some milk in my coffee. I don't care for sugar however.

I drink 1 cup.

it depends on my day, sometimes I can drink 3 cups if I have a lot of work
