Don't worry: your tolerance will eventually reach a level such that you would have to consume physically impossible amounts of coffee for it to have any effect.



"Congratulations you have reached complete habituation + crippling dependence!"


Personally I find that there's a dynamic balance that forms. Any less caffeine and I'm a zombie, any more and it just feels physically repulsive. You make a cup take a sip and your mind is like Just No.

For me that balance is at about 400 to 500 mg of caffeine per day. Stays stable for months and months, then I tend to reset a bit during a vacation of or 3-day weekend of some sort.

Don't need caffeine at all if I'm not mentally working. Barrly crosses my mind.


Now we move on to performance enhancing supplements. All natural, of course. /s
