How much caffeine is too much?
For most healthy adults, the FDA points to about 400 mg of caffeine a day — roughly four cups of coffee — as an amount not generally associated with negative effects. That’s a population guideline, not a target: sensitivity varies a lot, and what’s fine for one person can cause jitters, a racing heart, or poor sleep in another.
This tracker adds up your typical drinks so you can see where your day lands and adjust — especially in the afternoon and evening.

Frequently asked questions
How much caffeine is safe per day?
For most healthy adults, up to about 400 mg/day is generally considered safe. Pregnant people are usually advised to stay under ~200 mg, and sensitive individuals lower still.
How many cups of coffee is 400 mg?
Roughly four 8-oz cups of brewed coffee at ~95 mg each — but large coffee-shop drinks can hold 200–300 mg in a single cup.
What are signs of too much caffeine?
Jitteriness, a racing heartbeat, anxiety, an upset stomach, and trouble sleeping are common signs to cut back.
When should I stop for better sleep?
Because caffeine has a ~5-hour half-life, timing matters — see the Caffeine Curfew Calculator for your personal cutoff time.
