So is caffeine but we love coffee, tea, and chocolate too.

I get where you're going but how many coffees does it take to kill a person vs how many beers

About 4g of caffeine is lethal, https://www.npr.org/2023/12/07/1217758671/a-lawsuit-says-a-man-died-after-drinking-a-highly-caffeinated-beverage-at-panera

The lethal dose of alcohol is about 5 to 8 grams per kilogram of body weight.
