Just decaf for me, thanks.

Giving up caffeine was one of the best moves I ever made. :thumbup:

A little herb with lots of coffee is like a simulated heart attack for me. I kind of enjoy it.

For one, I like having the blood vessels in my brain dialated, because it gets more oxygen that way.

Second, I don't like feeling nervous all the time.

That's a dangerous amount. You're pushing a gram then, and deaths have occurred at that level.

500mg maximum.

How is 500mg pushing 1000mg? It's half.

I'm assuming 5 cups + 500mg of crystalline caffeine. Not going to name any sources but it can be had by the pound for cheap.

Toxic dose
The LD_50 of caffeine (that is the lethal dosage reported to kill 50% of the population) is estimated at 10 grams for oral administration. As it is usually the case, lethal dosage varies from individual to individual according to weight. Ingestion of 150mg/kg of caffeine seems to be the LD_50 for all people. That is, people weighting 50 kilos have an LD_50 of approx. 7.5 grams, people weighting 80 kilos have an LD_50 of about 12 grams.

In cups of coffee the LD_50 varies from 50 to 200 cups of coffee or about 50 vivarins (200mg each).

One exceptional case documents survival after ingesting 24 grams. The minimum lethal dose ever reported was 3.2 grams intravenously, this does not represent the oral MLD (minimum lethal dose).

In small children ingestion of 35 mg/kg can lead to moderate toxicity. The amount of caffeine in an average cup of coffee is 50 - 200 mg. Infants metabolize caffeine very slowly.
