Diet soda

Diet soda. Made for people to believe that they are drinking a healthier drink. Diet drinks contain zero calories, zero sugar. Good? Yes. Alternatives? Of course. Are these alternatives good? No. Tests show that those who drink diet soda gain up to 30% more weight than those who drink normal soda. This is mostly because of the common artificial sweetner, asparatame. Asparatame can be found in almost everything. Asparatame is C14H18N2O5. Asparatame is an artificial sweetner that is genetically altered. Consuming foods that are genetically altered can be bad to us, as it can cause us to alter. So if you absolutely need soda, go with the real stuff. Not the diet. (Diet soda tastes terrible anyway)
