Drinking Sugar Cola to Lose Fat?

There was recently a debate about whether cola products actually do cause fat gain within the Fad Diets That Work group.

Some pointed out that caffeine has a fat loss effect (-0.02% per day) according to the Fad Diets That Work historical data.

It was theorized that perhaps that would be enough to counteract the weight gain effects of sugar which is the primary ingredient in cola soft drinks.

A further argument proposed that American based cola which usually contains high fructose corn syrup would probably be a fat gainer, but international versions of cola products that actually did contain the more benign sugar ingredient might be fat losers.

We don't guess with the Fad Diets That Work protocol. We measure.
