The hell does Mountain Dew have that other soda's don't?!
Caffeine - 54mg per 12oz can. His withdrawal symptoms are the same as that of coffee withdrawal. His weight loss was due to dropping 6+ cans of sugar a day of course.

For an 8oz cup, darker black teas and lighter coffees have 50-60mg, while darker coffees can have up to 120mg. It's interesting that all energy drinks I see like Monster, AMP, have warnings to limit yourself to 3 cans a day.
