I must admit I can't function without my cup of coffee in the morning. However, I never drink any in the afternoon, because if I do I am unable to sleep at night - just an indication of how long coffee lingers in the system!

I have like 5 or 6 espresso a day.

just take some care because coffee makes the body eliminate magnesium and calcium in the urine

However Italians drink constantly even 4-5 times per day

Maybe they compensate with a healthier diet, like the mediteranean

Making really good coffee fir yourself actually reduces the intake in my experience. The drug lasts longer when it is the good s#%} :-)
