Actually, there is nothing good about caffeine in your system except for it's ability as a stimulant. For people with "finicky" digestive tracts, the stimulant affect helps towards purgative action. It also leaches calcium from your bones so that you are more prone to osteoporosis as you get older. It makes people in high stress situations hypertensive and does create heart palpitations (although the affect of such palpitations varies with differing physiologies)

It doesn't help burn fat. Only thing that helps burn fat is your muscle tissues.

Oh yeah... and it's highly addictive for those that consistently consume ample quantities (in the form of colas, coffee or tea), but easier to break that addiction compared to others (i.e., alcohol, nicotine, various drugs, etc.)
