In milligrams do you need to limit to a day? I usually just have my morning cup, but I'm going on a girls' weekend this weekend, so I may need a second afternoon cup to keep me going!

    I keep my caffeine under 200mg per day. Normally just to limit the headaches.

    My doc said 200-300mg per day. I usually have 1-2 cups of coffee like 3 times a week depending on if I need to get things moving or not. I may sneak in a can od pepsi a few of the days as well. I feel as long as you drink enough water you should

    When I can stomach coffee, I do half-caff so I can have two cups if I need one later in the day (we have huge cups).  But a regular 8 oz. cup of coffee is ~100 mg, so you should be fine.  https://www.energyfiend.com/the-caffeine-database

    Some days I have way more than the recommended amount, most days I have none. I try to at least spread it out on my 'caffeine IV' days.
