It is said that the average American consumes about 280 mg of caffeine a day, which is the equivalent of about three cups of coffee.

Others think it’s impossible to carry on in our modern society without them.
We’ve been drinking coffee for eons and it has yet to kill us off, so we better have a good reason to cease the consumption of energy drinks altogether like everyone seems to be saying we should…
