[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 239222, member: 16042"] Big Tex is on target. and Diet Coke? You need an intervention man! Those chemicals you are ingesting are literally affecting your brain function! You are doing yourself no favors drinking that crap. They are addictive stimulants and have harmful effects on the human organism. Just do a search on harmful chemicals in Diet Coke. Here are a few results: -Artificial sweeteners and "Natural flavors" are nerve stimulants that leave you craving more. Drinking them causes people to eat more, and crave carbs. It is well documented that those that drink Diet sodas are no better off in terms of obesity, and have increased rates of metabolic syndrome and diabetes, and double the rate of kidney disease. -There is evidence that artificial sweeteners disrupt gut microbiome. -Phosphoric acid leaches phosphorus from bones. There is high correlation between diet soda intake and osteoporosis -Sodium benzoate and Potassium benzoate preservatives in diet sodas cause changes in mitochondrial DNA that block their ability to function. This means impaired production of energy in your cells. -these preservatives are also causative of allergic/inflammatory effects. -The acids erode tooth enamel -Though not a bad substance unto itself, caffeine is addictive. If your source of caffeine is diet sodas, No bueno. It addicts you to the chemical soda. Better to get it from a natural source like coffee or tea, which both have actual health benefits. I'll add that it wasn't diet soda for me, but was the food additives and flavor enhances in food additives, natural flavors, isolates, concentrates, etc. The food industry is loaded with chemicals that stimulate the nerves... the taste buds, and the craving centers of the nervous system. This stimulation is pathological. For me they were the primary cause of migraines. After abandoning all food additives, my migraines vanished. [/QUOTE]
