Why do people keep saying diet coke is bad for you?
Question:
Answers:
Aspartame is a chemical which acts as sugar does, but with no calorific value. Some researchers have suggested that it could be a possible carcinogen (cancer-causing source).
Also, there are a lot of weird chemicals put into it to make it maintain its brilliant flavour, but these chemicals havent been around for long for scientists to REALLY know the effects of. For all we know, half of them could be carcinogens.
Because its got aspartame in it (artificial sweetener). If you have enough of it it may kill you. Its definitely not good for you.
that kevin dude is right but also it has a lot more caffine than normal coke.
It has aspertame in it and many people dont know that if you drink a lot of stuff with aspertame in it, it puts a 'tire' around your middle. Its lovely stuff. So what you think is DIET and supposed to be helping you is actually a hinderance.
Also, the only way to get aspertame OUT of your body is to drink lots and lots of water..otherwise there is no other way to get it out. Skip the Diet Coke and go directly for the water.

I don't know why they do, but its irritating. Theres nothing wrong with drinking Diet Coke. My aunts a Registered Nurse and goes through a 12 pack of it a day, and shes been doing it for years. And no, artificial sweetener does NOT give you cancer. The studies have been done for years and yet there is no evidence that can prove that it does.
If you want to drink it, go right ahead. If I die from drinking it then I'll let you know, cause I drink a lot.
