Man Dies Of Caffeine Overdose

You pretty much have to have never pushed a serious amount of caffeine before in your life to make this mistake; I used to take caffeine pills during high school, and minor overdoses would make me sick for days. I feel nauseous just thinking about a spoonful of caffeine powder.

From the article:

"The court heard that Bedford ignored the product's recommendation to take no more than one sixteenth of a teaspoon and instead took two spoonfuls of the powder -- ingesting a level of caffeine 70 times more than is usually found in a high-energy drink."

He also washed it down with an energy drink!

I used to be addicted to energy drinks, and I used to be a heavy natural coffee consumer, but I stopped doing it. I learned trough my experience that high amounts caffeine are only good for one time use, because it sort of overloads the system, making you feel good at first, but it's only temporary.
