You all are gonna have heart attacks with the amount of caffiene you're intaking. My word!  :smileysurprised:

That being said, a single cup of coffee and a b-12 vitamin here.

Im with you Temp-

 

I have about a half a cup of coffee during the morning meeting just to kickstart myself. Anything after that, I get jittery and sweat way to much.

I've never heard of anyone getting a heart attack due to drinking too much caffeine. It is like the urban legend about Mikey and the pop rocks and coke mix.

 

I know drinking coke and other sugary items is not good for you but I don't care.

Re: What's your choice in terms of caffeinated drinks to get going?

you can absolutely die from too much caffine.  A healthy person would have to take a good number of caffine supplement pills to die.  More than any normal person would want to take.

 

A person with a heart condition or on medication for various things would have a lower threshold. 

 

This is not to say that i think caffine is bad, everything in moderation, listen to your body, etc.

kudos for the hazlenut coffee!!

"And old Dave, he'd go up to his room, y'understand, put on his green velvet slippers - I'll never forget - and pick up his phone and call the buyers, and without leaving his room, at the age of eighty-four, he made his living. And when I saw that, I realized that selling was the greatest career a man could want." Arthur Miller (1915 - 2005), Death of a Salesman, 1949.

I love brewing a pot of tea and having a relaxing cup with milk and sugar.

Tried Red Bull and Rock Star...but after so many years in the Navy...Atomic strength coffee is my favorite...I make it myself...and it will wake the dead...at times I am afraid to share it with anyone because...my recipe may be what has caused the zomie invations..ie "Walking Dead".
