People drink Diet Soda to reduce weight convert others not realizing its bad effects. Diet soda, is insidious,  just as religion.

Here are top 10 reasons:

1. There is absolutely no proof that diet soda helps people lose weight.  On the contrary, there’s significant evidence that diet sodas and other noncaloric, artificially sweetened drinks actually lead — quite powerfully — to weight gain.

2. Diet sodas are said to be good for type 2 diabetics and other blood-sugar problems.

Body tastes the sweetness, the brain triggers a release of insulin from the pancreas and also a “Sugar is coming! Stop-burning fat” response from the liver.

The result is the usual insulin-related problems of increased urge to eat, increased tendency toward fat storage etc.

Plus an arrest of healthy protein-and-starch production.

All of which compel you to plump up and eat even more unhealthy stuff later.


3. Diet sodas and the chemically derived artificial sweeteners they contain, especially aspartame, act as neurotoxins and have been linked to headaches, memory problems, anxiety, brain fog, depression, skin irritations, menstrual problems, fibromyalgia, joint pain and more.

4. The act of drinking diet soda sends your psyche a slew of negative, demoralizing, less-than-healthy mental messages.

I am afraid of getting fat.

I don’t trust my body to crave the right things

I need to be on a diet

I am compelled to drink sweet stuff, even though I know it’s not good for me

I’m being “good” now so I can be “bad” later

5. Artificial sweeteners and artificial colors tend to drive cravings for more sweet and hyper-flavored foods.

More diet soda, please!

6. Diet soda contains all kinds of icky chemicals that add to your body’s toxic burden, lowering your immunity.

7. Frequent sipping or gulping of diet soda blunts your thirst, reducing your intake of pure water, which is a much better choice for hydration and helps to clear toxins from your system.

8. The acids in diet soda eat away at the enamel on your teeth. They also are acidifying to your entire system.

9. Diet soda is generally bottled or canned, and it compells to drink it by the case. Drinking soda is incredibly expensive, an important point for anyone who protests that they can’t afford high-quality food or decent nutritional supplements.

10. Diet Sodas somehow get a pass in practically all weight-loss plans.

And are actually promoted by many dietitians as “free” foods or “good” treats

They are aggressively advertised as being “better choices” for health- and weight-conscious people, and as a result, many kids and teenagers make them a habit early in life.

Remember how the Cigarette companies made millions with pre-defined researches to say smoking cigarettes do not cause cancer,  even though they knew other wise.

For decades they cheated the public untill were caught up on their perverted, brazen lies.

So are all Sodas.

Why will not people be sensible --- Read what science say --- and drink free ''water'' ?

Why will not we see through advertisements and make correct choice ? !
