Question: Coke Zero - Diet Coke - are they really bad for you!?
Are these drinks [sugar free] bad for you - I mean when you look at the calories in a 500ml bottle they have less than one!?

can anyone clarify how bad - if bad at all they are!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
It is bad for you because it has aspartame in it which over a long period of time can cause cancer, however, if you only drink it once a week or so, it's fine!. I have heard that it can make you gain weight!. can't prove it though!.

I personally avoid anything that contains sweeteners!. I think that a little natural sugar will do far less harm than added chemicals!. But as others have said, in moderation drinking it shouldn't do you too much harm, but limit yourself to a can or two a week!. If you are trying to avoid unnecessary calories then go for plain water!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

this kind of coke uses artificial sweeteners!. it doesn't literally mean that when it says zero, it doesn't contain sugar! artificial sweeteners have disadvantages also!. but they are not that bad if you didn't take too much!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You should drink no more than one can a day, the phosphorus in the pop/soda is bad for your bones, if you do drink alot of it make sure you take in extra calcium!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well they are fine to have except not all the time they are definitely sometimes drinks!. A person I know burnt a hole in her stomach because she drank too much!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
