Can you od on cafeine? Most definitely, yes. A friend of mine went to the emergency room after too much caffeine. The doctors would not believe he wasn't on speed, that it was only caffine that got his heart racing so fast. Keep in mind, though, he had ALOT of caffeine
I've lowered the amount of caffeine that I take in daily. Not only do I feel less fatigued, but I enjoy it more when I do have it. I'm down to 2 cups of joe in the morning, not soda at all. Once in a great while I have a cup of coffee or tea in the afternoon.
Long term effects? If taken in moderation, there are no scientific evidence of health risks from caffeine. 4 to 6 cups? I wouldn't be too concerned about this dosage.
