What's a healthy amount of diet soda to have throughout the week?

Question

44 ounces or less? 20 ounces or less? No soda?

(Please don't tell me regular soda is healthier; I can only drink diet due to allergies).

Answer 1

There is no such thing as a "healthy" amount of diet soda. What you need to consider is making sure you get enough of the "good" fluids such as water to balance out the bad (such as any sodas, fruit juices high in sugar, etc.). It's all about balance, and remaining well hydrated.

Answer 2

None.  Drink water.

Answer 3

The reaction of the diet drinks has shown to effect the blood the same way as normal sugar soda. In fact, I know several people who have blamed weight gain on diet soda.

I would say that with the potential risks of cancer from diet drink sources, I would suggest a nice refreshing glass of orange juice and ditch the soda all together.

Answer 4

don't drink any soda at all - diet or not, it's terrible for your teeth and not especially good for your body. a small amount won't kill you, but the less, the better.
