Its fine for you, but only as long as you don't drink it in excess.
If you drink it in excess all of the artificial sugars will make you crave very sugary foods to compensate. Resulting in you eating unhealthier. |

You can be a veggie and still drink soft/fizzy drinks. But sad to say all soft/fizzy drinks are bad for you..no matter if there is sugar or not. Go for fruit juice, I love apple. And plenty of water! |

STOP! Diet soda is actually WORSE than regular soda! They put so much fake stuff in there so they don't have to use REAL sugar... get rid of it all. |

Diet soda is NOT a diet product! It is a chemically altered, multiple SODIUM (salt) and ASPARTAME containing product that actually makes you crave carbohydrates. It is far more likely to make you GAIN weight! |

kind of. it has artificial sweetners, which can be even worse than regular sugar.
the best thing to drink is water...no calories, sugar, nothing. |

Yes it is! It has a chemical in it called Aspartame. This chemical can cause the illness know as Multipul Sclerosis or MS. This causes leisions in your brain and it disables you from many things, some including walking. |

For some reason it screws up your metabolism. Most people who drink it actually gain weight or experience more health problems. The thing with diet foods is that your body is tricked. There is research still being done on this. |

Yes....aspartame is poison and there are preservatives in it that solidify and keep fat on your body...plus there is still quite a bit of sodium...it's also a lot more addicting than regular soda |

well i used to think it was okay but it is sweetened with artificial sweetners which contain aspartame which is actually cancerous...so if you dont wanna end up with cancer one day, i'd say keep the drinkin to a minimum....hope it helps!!! |

Actually, it's even WORSE for you than regular coke.
The sugar substitute causes serious health issues, even heart failure! |

In my opinion, anything man made or altered from its natural state is bad for us. I don't think that aspartame is that great of a thing for anybody either. Can you drink water?? That would be the ideal fluid. Or milk, pure OJ or other juices?? |

Since it is not something humans have consumed for millions of years, who can say for one hundred percent sure? Too much of anything can't be healthy. But diet pop, unless you have some unusual allergy,does not seem to harm us.
P.S. Learn to listen to your body -- if something makes you feel bad, don't ask for advice, avoid it. Recall the first time you smoked or drank booze? Yuch. |

Sugar is sugar. Sweeteners have sugar in them also. Take a educated guess? |

It is bad because of the aspartame they use to sweeten it. The soda producers will tell you theres nothing wrong with it while others will tell you there is. I'm unsure myself but considering where it comes from I'm a little wary. Then again I'm addicted to caffeine. |

I think the question posited, is what is bad about anti-sugar products. And I will tell you why. Physologiocally Coke 0 or "diet" soft drinks that yur brain is telling your body that you are gretting sugar because it is sweet. but if the make up what you are putting in your body is sweet it would better be sugar. BECAUSE your brain is telling your body that it is high in calories. it will treat your body that it is sweey so your physioological make up is ready to burn. but it isn't . You have confictting sugar/ sweet and there is no sugar. So the adrenal gland in your brain produces cortisol to burn what isn't there. Cortisol is bad in that way. It will put fat on you.
great question though

coke zero is not good. it has aspartame and other chemicals, which are not good for you. drink some sunny d or just buy oranges and make ur own juice at home. that's the healthiest way
good luck |

Its a matter of degree. It obviously is better in the health sense because it isn't like drinking a bottle of sugar, but water is better. Occasional soda is OK, just keep it under control. Congratulations on making positive changes in your life!! |

Absolutely bad for you leave it alone for a month and after that you wont miss it. Drink water instead, with a little lemon much better for you. after your meals try to drink something hot, this will help in digestion and the fat intake wont solidify in your system.This really works stick to cutting out the 4 C's coke ,candy,cookies,cake.No white flour if you can and no white sugar. I did this and feel so much better and the weight is starting to drop. I Also walk everyday for 30 min. Best of luck to you sounds like your are on your way. |

It's bad. I think it's just empty calories...even though it's no calories. IDK...you should give up soda, trust me it makes life so much better. |

Yes, diet soda is still bad for you. There are recent studies that seem to indicate that the artificial sweeteners in diet soda mess up our metabolism and actually cause some people to gain weight.
Other studies have shown that artificial sweeteners can actually make you eat more, by making you feel hungry or get cravings.
Stick with water, tea and fruit drinks. I believe there is also recent information that indicates that drinking at least 64 oz. of water every day may actually help with your metabolism, in addition to the other known benefits.
Good luck. |

yes, they make diet only because people like you (no offence) dont know that there is still bad things in it like guarana and co2 obviously, im not sure just how bad co2 is for you but i know it doesnt help. if you ever look on the side of the can you can see all the bad things they put in it, and the percents arent based on 2000 calorie diets, the percent is how much of the liquid is made up of that material |

soda especially dark colored soda is not all that great for you. But I want to give you credit because as a fellow pop lover, I know its hard to sub lower calorie pop for regular cola. You are taking a great step in becoming healthier. I agree that if you drink a lot of water with that soda, that is a better choice, and just gradually cut back on the coke zero.
Keep in mind that artificial sweetners really aren't that good for you.
Good luck with everything!! |

Yes, because aspartame has been linked with cancer. It simply isn't healthy. |

I think it is better to drink than regular coke as far as calories and sugar but any kind of coke/diet coke/carbonated beverage is not necessarily good for you if you drink it all the time. |
