Are you high my friend on cola? Zero has aspartan and other artificial sweetness that triggers your insulin response, and this is the main issue with obesity, don't know about calories in cola per say but insulin makes you eat more and more... healthy and cola in the same sentence.. damm.

> healthy and cola in the same sentence.. damm You're misquoting me - I said 'healthier'. For people who are basically addicted to sweet soft drinks, I think Zero is a healthier alternative and I think it's great that Coca-Cola developed it and is rebranding to it. I think it'll help a lot of people.

  "For people who are basically addicted to sweet soft drinks, I think Zero is a healthier alternative." The question is how much healthier it is and how less healthy it is compared to not drinking soda.

  A recent review and meta-analysis in the BMJ found no differences in health outcomes — including weight loss — between people who used artificial sweeteners and those who didn’t. https://www.bmj.com/content/364/bmj.k4718 https://www.bmj.com/content/364/bmj.k4718

    That doesn't mean that the zero calorie soda was a culprit. They biggest determining factor in obesity isn't what food are available to the person, it's what foods the person chooses to eat.

That's not proven. Time to take responsibility for your own actions.

Aspartame doesn't seem to affect your insulin response. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2923074 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2923074 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1946186 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1946186
