WRONG!
many people drink diet pop to cut down on their sugar intake and minimize the number of calories they consume in a day. So surely it should help with weight loss..... ummm NO not really!
Studies have shown that diet soda drinkers gain the same amount of weight as regular soda drinkers. Why you might ask? 2 reasons,
1. artificial sweetners used in diet pop can cause the same insulin reaction as sugar. This can cause a spike in our insulin levels leading to a "crash" leaving people feeling hungry and irritable, which can cause over eating.
2. people feel they could eat more because they had a diet pop, losing the benefit of a "calorie saving"
Make sense? Don't drink pop period! have yummy water with hint of lemon or mint!
