Question:

Diet coke!- does it make u fat? is it bad to drink diet coke excessively ?


Answers:
I don't really know about it making you fat but I can grantee that if you stop drinking any carbonated drink you will drop a few pounds... Dark colored sodas are not real good for your kidneys, in extreme cases people with kidney stones have been told to stop drinking dark, caffeinated soft drinks. As for the regular vs. Diet thing... True , diet has less or no sugar but at the same time it also has more salt so I guess you have to pick your poison. Good luck

Personal experience.

It does not make you fat, but I think anything in excess is bad. Diet is definitely better than regular coke though. One regular pop is like a whole meal in itself.

even though diet coke is better than regualr coke its still bad because of the sugar thats still in it so i whoudnt drink it excessively

Doesnt directly make you fat but artificial sweeteners make your body retain fluid and thus effect your digestive system and eventually cause you to put on some weight gain.
It is severely bad for you.

I don't know about making you fat, but it's horrible for your teeth - the acid and sugars can do a lot of damage.

yes to both of your questions

yes, and it poisons your body. the "coke" is used by cops to wash blood off the pavement and you can clean auto parts with it, imagine what it does to your body. the artificial sweeteners are poison to your body and screw up your whole system. if it has caffeine you shouldn't have more than a few a day anyway if you have trouble sleeping. you should google the ingredients for more info on artificial sweeteners.

coke is probably bad for you. a fried of french used to do cough syrup and it messed him up real bad I bet diet coke is just as bad as the real stuff

DONT DO DRUGS

I saw on mythbusters that diet soda contains trace amounts of fermaldahyde. and i dont think its much dif from regular coke, maybe less sugar.

Diet drinks with aspartame are as bad for you, especially in excess, as sugar; just in different ways.

soda is not good for you body...

drink mineral water is the best

diet coke, by itself, will not make you fat because of the low caloric value. However, drinking diet coke excessively is bad for you. Diet coke contains aspartame/NutraSweet, which is a drug that fools your mind into thinking what you are drinking is sweet. The composition of the drug is: aspartic acid 40%, phenylalanine 50%, and methanol 10%. Some of these chemicals will have a negative impact on your health if consumed excessively. So don't replace water with diet coke even if you don't get fat.

no calories, it cant make you fat and all that crap about the bubbles is silly, you fart it out, it doesnt build up, it might be bad for you in other ways, who knows about the sweetener, it hasnt hurt me though and im almost 60.cola will stain your teeth but no more than coffee or tea, it will give you an acid stomach but no more than what coffee will, so just dont stress over it. its not worth the worry.

It says that theres no calories right. So there is no fat at all!!! If there lying, they would be suied that's what my mom said:)
