From Kristin Kane, your About Health Editor
Many of us start each morning in the oh-so-loving company of a giant cup of coffee. For some, imagining a day without that jolt just isn't possible. Like lots of things, though, caffeine can have its pluses and minuses.

Benefits of Caffeine
Keeping you alert during that early meeting is a clear win for the stimulant, but some other possible benefits may surprise you.

How Much Is Too Much?
Anyone who can be found watching late-night infomercials with wide eyes knows that too much of this pep-you-up can take its toll. (Confession: I've been inches from ordering a lifetime supply of ShamWows.)

So Hard to Say Goodbye
There was a time when I was laying off the lattes for a bit. I should have walked around with a sign: "I promise -- I'm not usually this cranky."

Energy Boosting Solutions
If fighting fatigue is the reason you constantly reach for your mug, try some of these alternatives for generating some caffeine-free get-up-and-go.
