    ".... (Reuters) - Take another sip of that Diet Coke without fear that it may be spurring your appe e. Apparently, diet soda drinkers don't eat any more sugary or fatty foods than people who stick with water instead, according to a U.S. study.Some researchers have proposed that drinks sweetened with artificial sugar might disrupt hormones involved in hunger and satiety cures, causing people to eat more. Others hypothesized that diet beverages could boost the drinker's preference for sweet tastes, translating to more munching on high-calorie treats."Our study does not provide evidence to suggest that a short-term consumption of diet beverages, compared with water, increases preferences for sweet foods and beverages," wrote lead researcher Carmen Piernas in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.Piernas, from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Gillings School of Global Public Health, and her colleagues, looked at 318 overweight or obese adults in North Carolina, all of whom said they consumed at least 280 calories' worth of drinks each day.........."

    Coke Zero with vanilla is delicious. I hope I don't die from it.

    Your body still thinks its consuming sugar so it still releases insulin. This is not good for diabetics or people looking to lose weight (insulin directs your body to deposit fat as well)

    but shampoo is not as bad; you are not ingesting it (ok sometimes by accident )

    IDK. You're putting in on your head and some of those ingredients are bound to be nanotechnology that gets right through your skin.

    but yeah...the stuff they put in diet soda is poison. I read a bunch of stuff a while back about some possible links between aspartame and Alzheimer's and other diseases.

    Used to hate diet soda, now its all I drink. Regular soda actually tastes weird to me now.

    I'm not giving it up. Almost everything supposedly contributes to cancer nowadays anyway tbh.

    Yeah, i think like anything, it's about moderation. I can't find any real studies that say having 1-2 diet sodas is harmful.

    Aspartame causes my migraines to act up--so I try not to touch any artificial sweeteners. I would stick with regular if you choose to partake in soda drinking. I think maybe one every 2 weeks is what I do. Although holidays usually mess that notion up pretty quickly.

    But again, even without aspartame, lot of chemical stuff

    All that can give tooth decay, trigger migraines, cause hair loss (that's right)

    but for realsies...what do people expect. the you digest is going to have more impact (negative or positive) on your body than exercise, environment, genetics, etc.
    Assuming normal conditions and not some legless African American with Down's syndrome who lives in the sewer.

    Diet Soda will erode your teeth and take its toll on your gastrointestinal system over time (yes, even with 1 soda a day). You exchange sugar for a few extra chemicals, perhaps more caffeine, when you choose it over the corn syrup enhanced alternative. These things are far more relevant than potential cancer causing side-effects, as the former will happen while the latter might happen regardless of what you drink.

    It's bad, even if you want to lose weight. Even the 10 calorie . Like Blake said everything in moderation, but filtered water and green tea (proper green tea not that bottled sugar crap) are so healthy for you.

    I prefer Zero water but the filters run out really fast! I used the device they give you to measure other bottled water and such and nothing comes close to its purity.
