Too Much Caffeine Makes You Dumb

The amount of caffeine in half a can of Red Bull is about as much as you should drink if you want to be focused. After that you start to get stupid, says Science.

I love the "Pass it On" piece at the end: "Pass it on: Caffeine drinks might seem like a good way to get a quick attention boost, but drinking too much can harm your cognitive abilities."

Check me out! I'm drinking caffeine!

My extensive studies have proven that any amount of caffeine is enough to make me stupid, although this may be mitigated by the entertainment value. "Guys! It's 3 am! Let's talk about LIFE."

I question the observational capacities of these researchers based on this: " non-caffeinated soda Squirt (which looks and tastes like Red Bull)"
FALSE.

(Also, maybe it's the magickal "taurine" that made the Red Bull arm more alertly stupid?)

How is hitting a target on a computer screen a reflection of "cognitive abilities"? It's not science! It's bs!
