Studies are often skewed to produce a desired outcome. I don't trust artificial sweeteners. I personally will not consume them. Even one diet soda per day will eventually have some detrimental effect in my opinion. Thirsty...... drink water!
Out of everything we do in this game, diet soda should be the least of our worries.
I don't know about you guys but I think it's the carbonation of the soda that's a major factor for my desire
So instead, I have a variety of carbonated water; sparkling, seltzer water, etc.
And maybe even throw some tasty bcaas in there as well
Carbonation is a huge thing and I agree, buy some carbonated water and add some mio and can guzzle that shit all day.
Noooothing annoys me more than someone walking up to me while i drink a Coke Zero and casually mentioning that its actually worse for me than drinking REAL Coke.
There is zero evidence and mountains of research showing that artificial sweeteners dont do a damn thing to you. People just love to worry. Im sure there is a smallll population that does get a negative effect from aspartame and other sweeteners, just like there was a small population that couldnt handle EC stack....or peanuts.....or shellfish....or anything.
I love me some diet sodas but I try to limit them strictly based off me feeling like they dont quench my first. When im thirsty, i'd rather get a glass of water and add MIO
I'm with you partner.
