How many die from caffeine every year?

Fewer than one. There is no reporting methodology for deaths by caffeine because of the low incidence. Overdose of caffeine as been extremely rare since it was first extracted as a powder in 1819. Only seven confirmed deaths by caffeine since 1934 when the first death was recorded. Of the seven deaths, one was suicide, five accidental, and one by ingestion of a spoonful of powder during a alcoholic binge. Four were due to mislabeling of diet pills leading users to believe that taking more than the recommended dose would increase weight loss. One was an accidental injection of a lethal dose by a nurse. There have been more deaths from water overdose (drinking too much water) and lawn mowers than from caffeine overdose. The FDA notes that over 90% of Americans ingest caffeine daily in some form. It is the most ubiquitous food substance in the world. Caffeine is routinely injected into newborn infants suffering from difficulty in breathing.
