What's the maximum cups of coffee do you drink a day? It is said we should not drink more than 6 cups of coffee a day. If it is more than 6 cups, then you will get not only benefit but disadvantages as well. Too much coffee may not be good for your heart. It makes your heart beat faster, thus increasing your blood pressure. Are there any other drinks without side effect but bring as much benefit as coffee? Any idea?

I don't drink coffee at all. My boyfriend drinks several cups a day, though.

@yanzalong I have and i just don't like the taste of coffee and it is extremely unhealthy to add all the sugar,s and creamers to it to make it bareable for me to drink. My boyfriend got some kind of Mocha from McDonald's yesterday and it smells like dirty socks & I can't even describe the taste of it it was so bad but he enjoys it. He mostly just drinks black coffee.

@yanzalong with the amount of sugar and creamer i put in it to have to drink it there is no longer any health benefits to it. My boyfriend who drinks it black maybe but not for me and many others who drink it fully of sweeteners.

Years ago, the Oklahoma Gazette did a feature on coffee (articles on its health, how to get the best kind, etc.) I don't know if it's still 'in their archives here,' but this is a good way to start finding it.
Anyway---the message I got from them was 'no more than five cups a day.' I now usually do four-a-day---five if I have to do more 'work' than usual that day. Now (in my mid-thirties) my sleep-apnea/acid-reflux flares up if I have too much caffeine/sugar/etc. after 5-or-6 pm; so I try to do all my coffee-drinking before 2 pm.

I'm scared to drink a lot of coffee because it may be bad for health so I limit myself to one cup every morning.

One a day, but not every day. I'm more of a hot chocolate fan than a coffee fan.

I don't drink coffee that much, hardly ever. If I need some pep I drink iced tea! There is caffeine and it is delicious!
