It is very possible and many people are.  It would be similar to being addicted to coffee.

Answer 3

It is possible to get addicted to caffeine that is in sodas, coffee, teas, and energy drinks. However at your amount you should not have that much to worry about. Unless it is 2 to 5 of those 24 ounce bottles. When you say 2 to 5 I am thinking cans which are 12 ounces or 1.5 servings. Coke has about 35 mg of caffeine per serving. The maximum safe level of caffeine we should consume in a day is 300mg.

Answer 4

I think it is.Just like any other addiction,if you crave it and have to have it to function through your day,then yeah it's possible.Once you cut back on the soda though,you'll feel much better.

Answer 5

yes.

Answer 6

Yes, its the caffeine that will hook you.
