Pepsi Max contains 69 milligrams of caffeine per 355ml (12 fl oz). Diet Pepsi contains 36 milligrams of caffeine per 355ml (12 fl oz).
Some diet sodas also contain caffeine. Sodas such as Diet Mountain Dew contain up to 55 mg of caffeine in a can, and the majority of diet sodas have about 40 mg of caffeine.

Weight gain increases insulin resistance, which leads to an increase in blood sugar level.
