Diet coke vs coke?

Question

What is it in diet cola that makes it worse for you then regular cola?

Aspartane?

It's not often that Paris Hilton is right "only fat people drink diet soda"

I have the idea that diet cola is worse for you, am I right? Wrong?

Answer 1

Diet coke taste is awful, I rather have 1 regular coke a month than unlimited diet coke.

Answer 2

Aspartame... yes, that stuff is very unhealthy and in some cases, deadly to people.  Any 'artificial' sweetener is bad news and you're all guinea pigs for consuming it.

How many other products do you know of, that all you have to do is type the name (aspartame) in a search engine, and immediately, are thousands of reasons why it shouldn't be in FOOD, let alone, over 8,000 products and counting!

Note, no other product (unlawfully) approved by the FDA has been reported as dangerous more to the FDA than aspartame - it is known to cause cancer, migraines and host of other problems and is found to be especially harmful to children and babies.  Please, don't drink or eat it.

well diet is worse because it had more acids in it. And coke is already bad it could clean out a sink and a toilet so the diet has more acid.

Answer 12

the real thing....& tats obviously coke!!!!

good or bad for our health is another issue!!! in that case we should drink just plain water as it's good for our body as long as we don't over do it! i heard that too much water is bad for us!!!!????

Answer 13

I have no idea which is better for you I just prefer the taste of diet coke. Regular coke tastes kind of metalic to me

Answer 14

Right, but I do like my diet Pepsi now and then

Answer 15

I don't think either one is that bad for you in reasonably amounts. However if someone is drinking large volumes of diet coke then read on...

Aspartame (the active ingredient in diet coke) is an "excitotoxin" in the brain and excites neurons to death, i.e. it kills brain cells and causes other nerve damage.

It has also been know to trigger Migraine Headaches.

In a study a large percentage of rats given Aspartame developed brain tumors.

So personally I'll be sticking with my 4-6 cans of coke a day. Sure it's packed with sugar and the chances are I will become diabetic later in life - but it tastes so good.

Hope this helped
