Does energy drinks cause weight gain? I know that sugar and aspartame in them cuz weight gain, but the caffeine in them causes weight loss?

Dr. Larry Xanthopoulos, Boston University School of Medicine Answered Jan. 3, 2015

No. Caffeine does not necessarily cause weight loss. Energy drinks have a lot of calories, should not be consuming unless you do significant physical activity.
