How Much Coffee Should You Drink In A Day?

Although coffee does provide health benefits, enjoy in moderation. Coffee is also a diuretic meaning that is promotes the production of urine, pulling water from the body, which can lead to dehydration. The FDA states that 400 milligrams of caffeine (that's about four cups of coffee) per day is an upper limit for healthy adults. Exceeding this amount can be dangerous and result in insomnia, upset stomach, tremors and further dehydration.

How To Drink Coffee, The Healthy Way

Avoid high-fat, high-sugar coffee beverages, such as those you'd typically find at your local coffee shop. The best option is to consume black organic coffee to avoid pesticides. If you’re not quite ready to drink black coffee, try adding a splash of non-dairy milk and a sprinkling of spices such as cinnamon for a boost in flavor.
