I have always been a fan of the Lucozade since I started drinking it when I was a kid! I don't take alcohol anymore so I think its sort of become a substitute for me, I am currently drinking a least one "big" bottle a day, sometimes 2-3. You will not get diabetes, but yes you may put on weight, because of all the extra calories in it.
