Caffeine in SodaSlim: A Practical Checker for Your Daily Total
One SodaSlim capsule adds 138 mg of caffeine, leaving about 262 mg under the 400 mg a day FDA cites for healthy adults (FDA: how much caffeine is too much). With a 6-oz cup of coffee at about 75-100 mg (MedlinePlus: caffeine in the diet (pregnancy)), most people can fit one or two small cups. Take it in the morning and skip it if you are pregnant, under 18 or sensitive to caffeine.

The starting number
How does 138 mg of caffeine compare with the 400 mg limit?
One capsule takes up about 35% of FDA's 400 mg daily figure for healthy adults (FDA: how much caffeine is too much). That leaves roughly 262 mg for everything else you drink or swallow that day.
FDA describes 400 mg as about two to three 12-oz cups of coffee (FDA: how much caffeine is too much).
| Caffeine anhydrous per capsule | 138 mg |
|---|---|
| From the green tea extract | Under 4 mg |
| From the green coffee extract | Not published |
| Share of 400 mg | About 35% |
| Room left that day | About 262 mg |
Day budget
How many cups of coffee can you drink with SodaSlim?
For most healthy adults, one or two 6-oz cups. MedlinePlus puts a 6-oz cup of coffee at about 75-100 mg (MedlinePlus: caffeine in the diet (pregnancy)), so a third cup can push the day past 400 mg.
| Your day | Estimated total | Versus 400 mg |
|---|---|---|
| 1 capsule, no coffee | 138 mg | Well under |
| 1 capsule + one 6-oz cup | 213-238 mg | Under |
| 1 capsule + two 6-oz cups | 288-338 mg | Under |
| 1 capsule + three 6-oz cups | 363-438 mg | May pass it |
| 1 capsule + four 6-oz cups | 438-538 mg | Over |
Many mugs and cafe cups hold 12 oz or more, twice the 6-oz cup in the table. By the same MedlinePlus figure, one 12-oz mug is about 150-200 mg, which uses most of what the capsule leaves.
Tea, sodas and energy drinks vary too much to list. Read each label and add it in. The science behind the dose is on the caffeine anhydrous profile.
Quick check
Who should skip SodaSlim because of its caffeine?
Anyone under 18 and anyone pregnant or nursing, because the label says so. People with anxiety, sleep problems, an irregular heartbeat or high blood pressure should check with a provider first, per MedlinePlus (MedlinePlus: caffeine).
Pregnancy guidance keeps caffeine under 200 mg a day (MedlinePlus: caffeine in the diet (pregnancy)). A single capsule already uses most of that, which is one more reason the label rules it out. Answer the five questions to see where you stand.
Timing and sleep
What time should you take SodaSlim so it does not hurt your sleep?
Early. The label says one capsule daily without naming a time, and the sales page suggests the morning. Insomnia is one of the signs of too much caffeine that MedlinePlus lists (MedlinePlus: caffeine).
- Breakfast, about 8:00
One capsule with water. The label gives no time; the sales page suggests the morning, which keeps 138 mg of caffeine away from bedtime.
- Caffeine cut-off, about 14:00
Skip coffee, tea and energy drinks after early afternoon on SodaSlim days; too much caffeine can cause insomnia.
- Walk after lunch
Adults need 150 minutes of moderate activity a week. A 15-minute walk after meals adds up.
- Night, 7+ hours
Sleep, meals and movement shape weight far more than any capsule can.
Times are suggestions; the label says one capsule daily. Caffeine limits (FDA: how much caffeine is too much) (MedlinePlus: caffeine); steady weight change (CDC: losing weight).
- Pair the capsule with breakfast, so it becomes a fixed habit
- If you forget until evening, skip that day rather than take it late
- Night-shift workers: take it at the start of your waking day, not before sleep

If you react
What should you do if SodaSlim makes you jittery?
Cut back on other caffeine first, then pause the capsule if the feeling lasts. MedlinePlus names restlessness, a fast heart rate and anxiety as signs of too much caffeine (MedlinePlus: caffeine).
Stop the extras
Skip the next coffee, tea, soda or energy drink. Most jitters come from stacking, not from one capsule.
Never double up
Do not take a second capsule to "even out" the day. The label says not to exceed the recommended dose.
Pause for a few days
Leave SodaSlim out and see if you feel back to normal. If you do, caffeine was the likely cause.
Get help for heart symptoms
A racing, pounding or uneven heartbeat, chest pain or fainting needs a doctor, not a wait-and-see. NCCIH notes that heavy caffeine can cause abnormal heart rhythms (NCCIH: weight control).

FAQ
SodaSlim caffeine: questions people search
How much caffeine does SodaSlim have compared with coffee?
One SodaSlim capsule lists 138 mg of caffeine anhydrous. MedlinePlus says a 6-oz cup of coffee has about 75-100 mg, so the capsule is roughly one and a half small cups. Count it the same way you count coffee.
Can I drink coffee with SodaSlim?
Yes, in moderation. With 138 mg from the capsule, you have about 262 mg left under FDA's 400 mg figure. That fits one or two 6-oz cups for most healthy adults. Three cups may push you over, and large mugs count double.
Can I take two SodaSlim capsules in one day?
No. The label says take one capsule daily and do not exceed the recommended dose. Two capsules would add 276 mg of caffeine, leaving very little room under 400 mg for any coffee, tea or soda that day.
Will SodaSlim keep me up at night?
It can if taken late or stacked with other caffeine. MedlinePlus lists insomnia as a sign of too much caffeine. Taking the capsule with breakfast, as the sales page suggests, and avoiding caffeine later in the day lowers that risk.
Is SodaSlim safe if I am sensitive to caffeine?
Be cautious. At 138 mg, one capsule may feel strong if you rarely drink coffee. MedlinePlus says people with anxiety, sleep problems, an irregular heartbeat or high blood pressure should check with a provider about caffeine before use.
What should I do if SodaSlim gives me the jitters?
Drop your other caffeine first and do not take a second capsule. If the jitters last, pause SodaSlim for a few days. A racing or uneven heartbeat, chest pain or fainting needs prompt medical care.
Can I take SodaSlim with a pre-workout?
It is not a good idea. Pre-workout products often list caffeine by the scoop, and adding one to SodaSlim's 138 mg can pass 400 mg quickly. Check the pre-workout label and ask your doctor if you want to use both.
