About Carbonated beverage, cola, contains caffeine

This is regular, sugar-sweetened cola of the caffeinated type — the everyday cola poured from a can or fountain. It is essentially carbonated water, sugar or high-fructose corn syrup, caramel color, an acid blend and a small amount of caffeine, with no meaningful protein, fat or fiber.

Per 100 grams it provides about 37 calories and 9.6 grams of carbohydrate, almost all of it sugar (about 9 grams). A standard 12-ounce can holds roughly 368 grams, so a single can delivers about 136 calories and 33 grams of sugar — around 8 teaspoons — along with about 29 milligrams of caffeine and only a trace of sodium (about 4 milligrams per 100 grams).

The calories here come entirely from added sugar, so cola is easy to overdo. The caffeine is modest — less than a third of a cup of coffee per can — but the sugar load is the real story. Diet or zero-sugar colas, sparkling water or plain water are the lighter everyday choices, with regular cola best treated as an occasional sweet drink.
