Not enough on both accounts.

If I had to give an on average/daily account.

- 4 double shots of espresso daily; I bought a good espresso machine. - around 1 beer every 2 - 3 days

If I have wine, I typically will drink the entire bottle because I hate leaving a bottle open. I Might do this every 3 months?

Alcohol? Almost none. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a teetotaler or anything, I just rarely drink. I drank a little more in my 20's (who didn't?) but I'd say for the past 20 years or so, I average less than 1 drink / month, and probably drink enough to get a buzz less than once a year. Caffeine: If you poke me, I'd probably bleed pure caffeine. OK, maybe not really , not anymore. On average I'd say I drink 2 or 3 cups…

I’m not your doctor, or even a doctor, but I don’t think 2-3 cups per day + Coke zeros + green teas is considered “moderate” caffeine intake.

If I drank so much caffeine that I got a heart attack, I’d probably stay away from the stuff...
