Who Writes This Site

I write drpepperaddiction.com. I have been drinking Dr Pepper daily for the better part of a decade, which is where the name comes from, and somewhere along the way I got more interested in the questions than the answers I was finding.

It started as a place to settle my own: how much caffeine is really in a can, what the famous 23 flavors might be, which variety is worth the calories, and what a habit this size is actually doing over years. It grew into a guide to every Dr Pepper out there, from Zero Sugar to Cream Soda.

How I check what I publish

Every caffeine and sugar figure on this site is read off the printed label or the manufacturer's own product information, not copied from another site. When a number is derived rather than printed, such as caffeine for a bottle size the label does not list, I say so on the page. Health claims are sourced to the FDA, the American Heart Association, the World Health Organization, or peer-reviewed work, and I list those sources at the foot of the page that makes the claim rather than asserting them and hoping.

When I find I have been wrong, I fix it and say what changed. The sugar figure on this site read 40 g for a long time because I had been quoting the total carbohydrate row rather than the sugar row. It is 39 g. That is the kind of thing that only gets caught by going back to the label.

What I am not

I am not a doctor, a dietitian, or any kind of clinician, and nothing here is medical advice. If a habit is genuinely worrying you, that is a conversation for a professional, not a fan site. What I can offer is the numbers, checked, and ten years of first-hand experience with the exact thing you are reading about.

I am also not affiliated with Keurig Dr Pepper. That is what makes this useful: I have no brand to protect, so I can tell you which flavors are worth it and which are not, and I can publish the sugar figure without flinching.

How this is paid for

Some links to Amazon are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. That income covers hosting and lets me keep adding pages. It does not change the numbers, and it has never changed a verdict. You can read the full affiliate disclosure any time.

If you landed here from the question that starts most visits, the full answer lives on the front page: whether Dr Pepper is really addictive, what a daily can does, and how to pull it back.

Thanks for stopping by, and drink responsibly. The Pepper Man.
