In a recent article by Veronique Greenwood. Entitled "Why Bacteria, But Not Humans, Can Live on Caffeine." "How does bacteria live on Caffeine?" "Why cant humans live on caffeine?"
"Compare the calorie count for a black coffee with a latte and it's obvious that humans don't get energy in the scientific sense, from caffeine."
"These doesn't seem to be a problem for the new bacterium, pseudomonas putida CBB5, and several related bacteria that scientists have known for years, who get all the calories they need from it."
"Human liver enzymes, which have the task of processing caffeine and other drugs, can get part of the way there. They can remove the CH3 group stuck to the rings, just as bacterial enzymes do. But after that, humans show the caffeine.
You can look up on the Internet to see what would happen to a human if they tried to live off a caffeine.
In conclusion you shouldn't try to live off caffeine, because you will probably, most likely die.
