About Pepsi max
Pepsi Max is a sugar-free carbonated soft drink introduced by PepsiCo in 1993. Initially developed to provide a low-calorie alternative to traditional cola beverages, it is part of the 'diet' soft drink category and is popular worldwide. Pepsi Max contains caffeine and artificial sweeteners such as aspartame and acesulfame potassium to provide its signature sweetness without added sugar. It is calorie-free and contains no fat, protein, or significant traces of vitamins or minerals. While it serves as a low-calorie beverage option, it primarily consists of carbonated water, flavorings, and artificial ingredients.

Are there any health concerns with drinking Pepsi Max?
Consuming Pepsi Max in moderation is generally considered safe for most people. However, its artificial sweeteners, such as aspartame, may raise concerns for those sensitive to these ingredients or with certain medical conditions like phenylketonuria (PKU).

How much Pepsi Max can I drink in a day?
It is recommended to limit caffeine consumption to no more than 400 mg daily for most adults. Since a 355 ml can of Pepsi Max contains about 42 mg of caffeine, drinking up to 9 cans per day would stay within this limit, though excess soda consumption is not advised for general health reasons.
