- raspyberr 3y agoThis article seems to recommend having water instead.
- michaelt 3y agoNormal coke it is, then!
- lesuorac 3y agoMore like a bud light!
- 2OEH8eoCRo0 3y agoWell...the WHO did recommend water.
- probably_wrong 3y agoRight. But if I have to choose between diet and normal coke, which one is objectively worse for my health now?
- kapep 3y agoIf your goal is to lose weight, it seems like diet coke is the better choice short-term (because it has much less calories) and normal coke the better choice long-term (because according to studies, NSS don't help long term and to reduce their other long-term effects). So I guess if you drink a coke once in a while, diet coke is better and if you drink coke very often, you should stop drinking coke.

- 2OEH8eoCRo0 3y agoNormal Coke is probably worse but they're both horrible. I only drink normal Coke but sparingly. Usually I'm having water or plain black coffee. I think the takeaway is that diet Coke doesn't allow you to train yourself to enjoy normal sweet foods again. I just had an apple and strawberries and it is basically candy to me. Edit: I have a question. Rank these food items by how healthful they are: a) 150 calories of Coca-Cola Classic b) 150 calories of fresh fruit c) 0 calories of Diet Coke
- TeMPOraL 3y ago> Rank these food items by how healthful they are: Are you considering mental well-being as well, or just pure physical health? Because in case of the former, option b) will end up with the lowest score.
- 2OEH8eoCRo0 3y agoI'm considering the same as the parent comment.
