How many coffees per day is too much? What happens to the body when you overdo it

CNN Portugal10 September 2026 at 09:21

The article addresses the question of how many coffees per day can be considered excessive and the effects that exaggerated caffeine consumption has on the body. The introduction indicates that, although coffee can provide energy and help with concentration, the body also feels the consequences when caffeine is consumed in excess.

Doctor António Hipólito Aguiar is presented as the specialized source who will explain where the balance lies in coffee consumption and what measures to take in case of overconsumption. However, the available article contains only the headline and the introduction, not including the concrete answers to the questions posed.

The text functions as an invitation to a more extensive article, raising questions about the limits of caffeine consumption and the impacts on health, but does not provide specific details about medical recommendations or the symptoms associated with excessive consumption.
