Just how bad is diet soda?

[Scout200]

I was just wondering how bad diet soda is (in moderation) compared to regular soda? With regular soda, you're consuming empty calories... but there are several studies surrounding diet soda and how bad it is for you...What are your thoughts?

Not as good as water and not good for stomach and renal syystem in big doses

Once a week is fine. If i don't drink soda for long periods of times, my body doesn't react well the next time i drink it. Get gasy, bloat up, and upset stomach.

It's fine. Just don't drink 2 or 3 liters a day. A glass or two won't do you any harm.

It's amazing how close to Classic Coke they made it! I have a can a day- probably my only vice. I think I can live with that. :)

I agree. I would drink Diet Coke just because it was diet, but hated that it didn't taste ANYthing like Coke. Coke Zero as a fountain drink is so good!
