Is caffeine good for you, bad for you, or somewhere in between?

He covers ideal dosing, why timing matters more than amount, his personal hierarchy of caffeine sources, what the research says about coffee and tea's longevity benefits, whether caffeine is safe for kids, and five practical rules for using caffeine well.
