How much caffeine per day (on avg)?

Post by TheCatt »

I'd make a poll, but I really have no idea what good ranges would be.

I drink 82mg/day. 2x12oz Diet Dr Pepper.

Lately it has been 2 cups in a travel morning during the morning commute.... and during the week I try to make that all, for the day. To keep sane I usually drink soft drinks on the weekend evenings, but mentally I know I want to cut those out, too. Dieting phase.

I don't know how many mg 2 cups of coffee is. I think this month I am drinking Costa Rica blend.

2 cups is probably 100-130 mg. I go through 200 mg per day.

2 cups hardly gets me going, it feels like.

0.01 mg.

When I have some, it's incidental. Like, I wanted the Coca-Cola more than the caffeine.

I don't know what coffee you're drinking. Most coffee is close to 100mg/cup.

Upon closer inspection, my numbers were based on a single packet of instant coffee, which does clock in around 60-something. I do not drink coffee at all, I can't stand the taste.
