Confused Caffeine prevents Multiple Sclerosis "like" disease in mice
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0407162405.htm

I really need to stop subscribing to so many newsletters! I have drank lots of coffee for as long as I can remember.........I think this calls for a 2nd opinion!

Holy Mouse!! That's as much caffeine as in coffee!! Maybe more!

I don't care for it, but know a lot of people who do, and they say it's better than coffee for the caffeine effect.

I just hate the taste of coffee. I had it in college, but that was it. Mt Dew Diet all day everyday except when I was pg.in 2001. I drink all day, even in the car... hence I do drink a lot. But, I can't stand water, juice, coffee... I just drink Mt Dew.

Mountain Dew, at least in the US, has lots of caffeine, so you should be safe.
