Food for Thought: Measuring Soft Drinks' Jolt, Science News Online, Aug. 25, 2007

My last "Food for Thought" column noted that elderly women may keep their wits longer by drinking lots of caffeine. In that study, the women derived their caffeine from coffee and tea. A new study offers some guidance for Golden Girls who eschew the standard caffeinated brews but still want to reap some benefit from the stimulant. Many soft drinks contain caffeine, but how much of a jolt they deliver is seldom printed on the label.


Link to a chart that shows caffeine content of diffrent pops. Good to know.
I find it odd that Jolt Cola is not on the list.
Maybe I should start drinking Diet RC, since it is cheaper and has more caffeine than Diet Coke. Also no mention of the new Diet Pepsi Max.
