Hi Sunzz and welcome to ehealth: Each person has their own tolerance level of caffeine...As for me, I love it...I drink three 24 oz. bottles of Diet Pepsi a day...I am now sitting with a qt. bottle in front of me...We stopped at a Stop and Go type of place on the way home from the Vet and each got a bottle...My husband drinks Diet Mountain Dew...I have done this for as long as Pepsi started to market this product....I will until they stop making it...I have spoken to my Internal Medicine physician, as well as other doctors about the negative effect of this soda....Asked them if it would raise my blood pressure or ruin my health...Each time I have heard the same thing...If you drink the same amount of water then you are OK...They also told me that some women who may have cancer in their family might want to be wary of caffeine, but this has not been proven....Some people preach vitamins...Some preach vegetables...As for me I don't push anything...However, I will defend the soda of my choice...

On the interesting side, caffeine tests done on mice a few years ago proved without a doubt that the mice that used caffeine were the most sexual....I liked the results of that test... Very Happy ...Take care...
