It's not the purity, it's the dose, like any chemical the dose makes the poison.

The FDA recommends staying under 5 cups (400 mg) a day to avoid negative effects with an average person.
It says toxic effects can be observed with rapid consumption of 12 cups, or 0.15 tablespoons of pure caffeine. https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/spilling-beans-how-much-caffeine-too-much
