Caffeine in Beverages and a few other things.
 

I try to cut caffeine from my diet and was mildly surprised of the comparison of caffeine in drinks. I miss coffee but being so sensitive if I drink too much caffeine ~30 but I have gotten really bad headaches and I used to take Excedrin but they make me shake! Now I know why.
