i might have accidentally misunderstood how caffeine powder works.

You are definitely in the OD range. Didn't you have some liver problems? If so, the LD of caffeine is much lower for you than most. You may want to consider seeking medical help.

I love this episode, specifically since I can drink a pot of coffee then take a nap.

that would be around 3000mg, and no. my liver is fine.

1000mg is like a pot of coffee.

I'm just going to cut and paste from wiki so ed will understand how uninformed of a life he leads.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffeine

Caffeine overdose can result in a state of central nervous system over-stimulation called caffeine intoxication (DSM-IV 305.90). This syndrome typically occurs only after ingestion of large amounts of caffeine, well over the amounts found in typical caffeinated beverages and caffeine tablets (e.g., more than 400500 mg at a time). The symptoms of caffeine intoxication are comparable to the symptoms of overdoses of other stimulants: they may include restlessness, fidgeting, anxiety, excitement, insomnia, flushing of the face, increased urination, gastrointestinal disturbance, muscle twitching, a rambling flow of thought and speech, irritability, irregular or rapid heart beat, and psychomotor agitation. In cases of much larger overdoses, mania, depression, lapses in judgment, disorientation, disinhibition, delusions, hallucinations, or psychosis may occur, and rhabdomyolysis (breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue) can be provoked.

Massive overdose can result in death. The LD50 of caffeine in humans is dependent on individual sensitivity, but is estimated to be 150200 milligrams per kilogram of body mass (75100 cups of coffee for a 70 kilogram adult). A number of fatalities have been caused by overdoses of readily available powdered caffeine supplements, for which the estimated lethal amount is less than a tablespoon.

The lethal dose is lower in individuals whose ability to metabolize caffeine is impaired due to genetics or chronic liver disease.

A death was reported in a man with liver cirrhosis who overdosed on caffeinated mints.

On average, 200mg. You should at least Google before you post incorrect data.

70kg = 154lbs

there's roughly 100mg of caffeine in a cup of coffee



so 75-100 cups is 7500-10000mg

this is literally from your own thing you posted.

Look, helly, it's your life.

But if your liver is fine, despite all you posted to the contrary, then this topic is also most likely a lie.
---

i've never posted anything about my liver though

there's nothing wrong with it
---

The lethal dose isn't necessarily what you need to hit to die from caffeine intake. That's a lot really quickly

yes.

this is the issue.

not the amount, but the amount in the timeframe.

but i'm also not stupid enough to refuse to go to a hospital if shit is going to go down

so far i'm fine. i'm a little jittery, but that's to be expected if you did what i did or just drank a pot of coffee.

if i start having heart palps, yeah i'm out the door.

Again, the high average is 200mg for a pot of drip coffee. You're at 5 pots.

I made a mistake about the caffiene in a pot of coffee, then admitted that.

He still consumed 1200mg of caffeine when the OD level is 500-600mg.

I already said that. He still consumed a potentially dangerous amount of caffeine powder.

k, but you didn't explain it very well. at first I thought you were mocking Dr Foxx in that post.

SunWuKung420 posted...

if a cup of coffee can have 200mg, how is the overdose level 600mg if not less? if I drink 3 cups of coffee I'm ODing on caffiene?

So fix wikipedia. It says 500-600 mg at once is OD levels. 1200mg in 2 hours is a lot in a short window, and can be dangerous for unhealthy people. Helly spent a lot of time in the hospital recently. He told us all about his balls.

does it say that? I don't see that anywhere, but I see this:

The LD50 of caffeine in humans is dependent on individual sensitivity, but is estimated to be 150200 milligrams per kilogram of body mass (75100 cups of coffee for a 70 kilogram adult).

I guess you're misreading this sentence:

This syndrome (caffeine intoxication) typically occurs only after ingestion of large amounts of caffeine, well over the amounts found in typical caffeinated beverages and caffeine tablets (e.g., more than 400500 mg at a time).

so, in other words, to get caffeine intoxication/OD requires consuming well over the 400-500mg that is found in typical caffeinated beverages.
---

No one is going to argue that 1200 mg is a lot to intake at once, but the chances of it causing any sort of harm is basically zero. Especially if this is a one off occurrence which is what it sounds like. Helly's hospital stay is irrelevant to this particular situation. Unless you can somehow tell me how his infection somehow caused this horrible liver damage that makes his liver incapable of metabolizing caffeine?

sort of but not really. you get half a point here.

lets take a look at that second paragraph though.

you're misreading it. it means that a regular drink has 400-500mg, and to OD you need to (repeatedly) consume well over the amounts in those kinds of beverages.

how did you 'fuck up'? after everything I've now read about this, 1200mg is nothing. it's a lot of caffeine, but that was the point wasn't it? it's nowhere even close to anything approaching dangerous amounts. I guess because it was all at once and fast absorbed?

is "caffeine powder" that you're referring to the same thing as "powdered caffeine"? as little as 2 teaspoons of powdered caffeine can be fatal. so then yeah, be careful.

well powdered caffeine is just caffeine powder

I don't drink it often, but when I do, I drink alot.

I mostly drink tea though.
