is drinking diet coke every now then ok - especially if you go out for drinks and mix it with rum or something. All i drink is water.

Yeah, its fine. Some people say that the aspartame in diet sodas can cause cancer, but Ive done research and the only thing you dont want to do is drink an expired diet soda.

don't keep it outside the fridge either, unless its really cold outside. Its when the aspartame heats up to 82 degrees i believe that it turns to phermaldyhyde(sp?)

LOL - I would be more concerned about the rum!

But drinking a little diet coke is not too bad... there are certainly worse things you can do to your body!!

i use 2b addicted 2 coke (soda pop) and drank probably 4 a day?

i couldn't wait to pop open that tab and hear that sh-hh....sound? When my skin finally broke out (once a clear complexion.) due 2 what i later found 2B, "lack of water"? i started taking what i drink seriously and began a New drink habit. i have not had a Coke or (Soda pop) in 4 Years now!!! Not even 1.

i only drink what is known 2b in purest form. ...Water, ice tea, Cranberry juice? I am happy 2 say, i have not had a skin breakout since...more like smooth as silk?

i don't question it. i just go with the purest form of liquids as possible and thankfully, my skin appreciates it.

I don't drink soda at all... I think that's the safest thing to do when it comes to soda

"The major selling point of aspartame is as a diet aid, and it has been demonstrated that the use of this product actually causes people to consume more food. Normally, when a significant quantity of carbohydrate are consumed, serotonin levels rise in the brain. This is manifested as a relaxed feeling after a meal. When aspartame is ingested with carbohydrates, such as having a sandwich with a diet drink, aspartame causes the brain to cease production of serotonin, meaning that the feeling of having had enough never materializes. You then eat more foods, many containing aspartame, and the cycle continues. Monsanto’s profit from its NutraSweet Division was $993 million in 1990."

It breaks down into methanol. And yeah, when a diet soda heats up its the same as when it exspires.

But I never drink any normal diet coke or anything, I keep diet-rite soda at home because it sweetened with sucralose. It has very minor calories but its much better than aspartame.
