A man whose Pepsi addiction lead to him drinking a staggering 30 cans of the stuff a day has revealed the shocking effects it had on his body, as well as his bank account.
Andy Currie would start every day with a litre of fizzy pop and would drink a further nine litres throughout the day.
“I’ve always loved the taste of a cold Pepsi. Nothing could beat it and I just got hooked,"Andy, from Bangor, Wales, confessed.
“I work nights so always liked the sugar rush to keep me going. I’d go through four or five two litre bottles of Pepsi every day.

“Because I work at Tesco I could just buy it straight after work and take it home.”
Andy would spend a whopping $25 a day on Pepsi, which racked up to around $8,500 a year on his favourite drink.
"It cost me a fortune to be honest. I could have bought a car every year for the same amount I was spending on Pepsi," he admitted.
“I just needed to have it, as soon as I woke up I’d go to the fridge and pour myself a large glass of Pepsi and just carry on through the day.
“I remember going to weddings and birthdays and while other people had glasses of champagne I’d be toasting people with a can of fizzy pop.”
Andy's health began to deteriorate after his Pepsi consumption got out of control, and it got to the point where the Brit topped 19 stone and was at risk of developing diabetes.
While he managed to lose two stone through a strict diet, Andy was still struggling to quit drinking Pepsi for good.
It was London-based therapist and hypnotist David Kilmurry who Andy got in touch with as a result, and he saw results almost instantly.
"David met me online and hypnotised me for about 40 minutes," Andy said.
He continued: "I don’t know what he said but afterwards I just didn’t want to drink it anymore.
“I’ve still got two cans of Pepsi in my fridge which I was going to have before the session but didn’t have time.
"I prefer water now. My wife Sarah says my skin looks better and I’ve got so much more energy."
David said: “I was horrified at Andy’s disclosure of drinking 10 litres of Pepsi a day.
“That was by far the worst sugar addiction I’ve ever heard of.
“Resigned to addiction, Andy was overweight, anxious and struggled to get his words out because he was so breathless.
“It became a poison and a crutch to him. Since working with him I am delighted to see him drinking water and healthy drinks.”
