Personally, I prefer the taste of it. I don't typically drink soda, but if I were to have soda I'd rather it be diet.

diet soda's worse for you than regular soda cuz it has this chemical thing that kills ur braincells...so i've heard..

Everything kills brain cells and everything gives you cancer these days, I heard on the news once that spinach causes cancer, seriously people make up that certain things cause cancer and disease.

There is no conclusive evidence to support Aspertame being dangerous.

i think that there are people out  there who value the zero-calorie aspect of diet soda over the retention of their own brain cells. don't rule it out.

Your body still reacts to diet soda as it would to real soda. Not only is it filled with even more artificial chemicals, but the ingredients metabolize in your body the same way as they would with normal soda.

What I mean by this is that the fructose in diet soda is still stored as fat, even though it's diet and says it has no calories. Your body cannot tell the difference and stores the same amount of fat as it would with regular soda.

Diet sodas are definitely worse than the normal variety. The ingredients are more harsh in your body.

And you're still going to gain the same amount of weight. You're NOT saving helping yourself by drinking diet soda. Trust me on this; I'm on my path to becoming a dietitian.

The taste may be preferable to some, but as far as health goes (if you're concerned about that) diet soda is just as bad if not worse than regular soda.

But I have to admit that I do enjoy Diet Coke.

Nancy from Weeds got me hooked. Notice how she is ALWAYS drinking Diet Coke? SUBLIMINAL ADVERTISING.

...And it worked on me.
