Diet Mt Dew - always by my side

Post date: 2020-01-24 06:25:25

Should I replace my morning Diet Mt Dew with a caffeine pill? Because soda is terrible for us, right?

I drink a Diet Mt. Dew every morning as part of my "wake up and get going" routine. I carry it around the house while I exercise, shower, and eat breakfast. I don't drink coffee because a) if it takes more than 1 second to prepare I won't do it, 2) I'm vain about staining my teeth, and 3) I'm not a big fan of the taste.

Enough people have told me how bad soda is for me that it's starting to make me doubt my years-long morning soda habit. But I'm OK with caffeine, and I think it helps me get moving.

What are some of the latest thoughts/research on caffeine pills? When I was in high school, things like Vivarin were sold in truck stops and we always gave them the side eye as being unhealthy or even dangerous. I drink loads of water -- would it make sense to replace my morning soda with a big bottle of water and a caffeine pill? Does anyone else do this, or have recommendations for further reading? Thanks!
