Why not? Caffeine works more efficiently when taken in more frequent and smaller doses. Furthermore constantly taking in caffeine will suppress hunger. If you're concerned about the sugar in many drinks, you should call that out.

Water works the same as you mention about caffeine without any side effects or potential thereof: energy leveler and producer + appetite suppressant.

I'm not calling sugar out what-so-ever. I said avoid diet and low-fat anything... normally things are low fat and diet because they have a sugar substitute. Maybe you missed that? What I was calling out is stay away from artificial.

From what I hear, an apple would be a better choice than caffeine anyway if your looking for a pick-me-up.
