The Mayo Clinic determined that healthy adults can safely ingest about 400 milligrams of caffeine per day. Going above that affects how well you sleep and may lead to other unpleasant symptoms.

The data is from the National Center for Biotechnology Information. If you find the top graph confusing, he also plotted the list a different way. This is the percentage of the safe dosage of caffeine reached by one serving of each product.
