I drink about 150-250 mgs of caffeine, staggered across the day in 3-4 doses (in teas or espresso). I recommend remaining below 300mgs. For me, it the most addictive substance I've tried. I cannot go without it. It definitely positively helps. But beware, too much consumption can lead to nervousness, and anxiety (I even get the paradoxical effect of fatique if I take caffeine after consuming too much for a few months). From my experience, the keys are to limit intake and stagger intake across the day. I also find drip-coffee to be less effective than black tea or espresso over the long term.
