As a life-long soda junkie that long ago switched to diet soda and seltzer I'll be the first to say that I don't consider diet soda or junk food made with artificial sweeteners "healthy food". At the same time the hyperbole on this topic, often coming from the a place of trying to be helpful, is really not grounded. Would it be better if I cut back on my diet soda habit or even better eliminated it? Absolutely. Is diet soda likely
causing me ill health outcomes like: weight gain, gut health disregulation, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, etc. No. This video has perhaps the best dissection of the present available evidence and solid recommendations at the end.
