1 can (medium) of Coca Cola (330 g) has 139 calories. That works out to 42 calories per 100 g. It contains 35 g of carbs, 0 g of protein, 0 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its glycemic index is 63 (high), so it raises blood sugar quickly.
Coca Cola is a caffeinated, sweetened carbonated soft drink, known for its dark colour and distinctive cola flavour. The branded drink is made around a closely guarded flavour formula and is sold worldwide. Its taste is sweet, tangy and lightly spiced, while the fizz gives it a crisp, refreshing feel when served chilled. People commonly have it with fast food, sandwiches or snacks, or pour it over ice at casual gatherings; serving customs vary across the many places where it is popular.
Nutritionally, it is mostly a source of carbohydrate, with no protein, fat or fibre, and it contains caffeine. Each 100 g provides 10.6 g of carbohydrate. If you enjoy sweet fizzy drinks but want a smaller serving, pour a modest glass and have water alongside it.

Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Yes, regular Coca Cola contains caffeine. The amount can vary by product and country, so check the can or bottle if you are sensitive to caffeine; some versions, such as caffeine-free varieties, are different.
No, Coca Cola is not a proven remedy for an upset stomach. Its carbonation may increase bloating, and its sugar can be unhelpful when you are nauseated. Sip water instead, especially if you are losing fluids.
Yes, Coca Cola contributes fluid, but it is not the best everyday hydration choice. Its sugar and caffeine make water a better option for routine thirst, while oral rehydration solution is more suitable for replacing fluids lost through diarrhea.
Yes, frequent Coca Cola consumption can harm teeth. Its sugar feeds cavity-causing bacteria, and its acidity can erode enamel; sipping it over a long period increases contact with teeth. Rinsing with water afterward can help.
It can. Caffeine in regular Coca Cola may make it harder to fall asleep, particularly if you are sensitive to caffeine or drink it late in the day. Choose water or a caffeine-free drink near bedtime.
Coca Cola is made with carbonated water, sweetener, caramel color, phosphoric acid, flavorings, and, in many versions, caffeine. The precise flavor formula is proprietary, and ingredients can differ between countries, so the local label is the source for a specific product.
No, Coca Cola Zero is not the same drink as regular Coca Cola. It uses non-sugar sweeteners instead of sugar and has a different taste; it may still contain caffeine, so check the package if avoiding caffeine matters to you.
Yes, Coca Cola can be consumed during pregnancy, but its caffeine should count toward your daily caffeine total. Regular Coca Cola also adds sugar. Follow your prenatal care provider’s caffeine guidance, especially if you drink coffee, tea, or energy drinks too.
Coca Cola fizzes because carbon dioxide is dissolved in the drink under pressure. Opening the bottle or can releases that pressure, allowing the gas to escape as bubbles; warming or shaking it makes the fizz stronger.
Coca Cola can loosen some light rust or residue because it is acidic, but it is not a reliable household cleaner. It can leave sticky sugar behind, so a purpose-made cleaner is usually more practical and should be rinsed off.
