Pepsi

Caffeine is a very common ingredient that's found in a lot of your favorite foods and beverages such as coffee, tea, chocolate, and even cola. It's even one of the ingredients that make Pepsi taste so great. The amount of caffeine in Pepsi differs based on the type of product. For example, a 12-ounce Pepsi Zero has 69mg of caffeine. Most 12-ounce cans of Pepsi have 38mg of caffeine, but they also have a caffeine-free variant. Pepsi has 4mg more of caffeine than its biggest rival, Coca-Cola.

You may have seen ads about soda companies placing the number of calories of their products prominently on their bottles. But this is not the same as displaying the amount of sugar present in a Pepsi bottle. If you drink an 8-ounce Pepsi, you will consume 27g of sugar. This means that when you treat yourself with a bottle of Pepsi, it's similar to eating 7 teaspoons of sugar. It is important to note that people are recommended to consume sugar that equals 6 percent of their total calories for the day, which is approximately 32g.

A 10-ounce can of diet Pepsi has 30mg of caffeine. This is similar to drinking an 8-ounce cup of black or green tea. This amount of caffeine is completely safe for healthy adults since the FDA has stated that 400mg of caffeine is not associated with dangerous effects. To reach 400mg, you'd have to drink around 13 bottles of diet Pepsi. However, it's important to note that people vary in their sensitivity to the effects of caffeine, as well as how fast their body breaks it down. Medications, breastfeeding, and pregnancy can make more people sensitive to the effects of caffeine.
