BTW, I'm up to 24oz of coffee/day and am enjoying it again.

>24oz of coffee/day

safe to say you're immune at this point, RC

I drink 30^oz jet black daily --occasionally 40. Plus 2L water per transplant docs.  Everybody's happy.

Anecdotally,I'm deep-tracking the major medical issues I have and noticed that some of the coffee research studies I see in my feeds do seem to align with some positive results I'm having.

I used to be glad that I don't like coffee, but as more and more correlations come out, I'm a bit sad I don't like it now.

I love to drink coffee as a beverage the way some people drink ice tea or coke.  I've switched to decaf a few times over the years, but I've given up on that in the last couple of years and am sitting comfortably in my caffeine addiction.

Sadly, caffeine has lost a lot of its punch for me.  I get a little boost in the morning after 20oz but no solid buzz like my middle-age years.  A cup in the early evening doesn't bother my sleep very often.  I used to have to quit by 4-5pm.

I miss the buzz.

>I miss the buzz.

You are probably at a constant state of elevated caffeine so it feels like a base line.  Have you tried to gradually mixing in decaf over a period of time to lower your level and then bring it back up?

>gradually

That's a good idea.
