and I have also been drinking it for about 50 years since my teens. You must be around my age. I had to really cut back the caffeine though, a decade or so ago. My body just couldn't handle it anymore. I do a cup of caffeinated in the morning, and decaf the rest of the day now. But after learning this, I may have to just cut the cord on caffeine altogether.

Good luck!
