Ever since I started working at home, I have been brewing up five or six 10-cup pots of coffee per day, and drinking them throughout the day. If I work late, I might end up drinking over five gallons of coffee. My average is probably 3.25 to 3.5 gallons of coffee per day.
I only started doing this a few weeks ago; what are some possible negative health effects if I keep this up?
I mean, aside from needing to urinate all the time?

Oh my gosh, are you kidding me!?
First of all, this cannot be healthy for your sleep. You really need to be getting 6-8 hours of DEEP sleep and drinking that much coffee will prevent a Deep sleep.
Second, any coffee after 2 pm will inhibite your ability to sleep
Third, Drinking that much coffee is horrible for your stomach. Coffee is acidic and it most definitely wears on the stomach lining. I know of someone who now cna only consume lettuce and one other thing(i forget) due to drinking a pot of coffee every day
Fourth, caffine in coffee is substantially stronger than that of a soda, therefore in large doses, it causes irregular beating of the heart.
There are a lot of benefits of coffee if consumed in smaller amounts. I am an addict but that is excessively unhealthy. Cut back, please
