  • I am a student who actually has performed several rat studies. While I agree we should look more into artificial sweetners and their effectiveness as an aid for weight loss, you are completely forgetting an important point here. People on artificial sweetners are more likely to be calorie restrictors. The rats are not. This study doesn't account for that. You could get entirely different results by using a population of calorie restrictors.

  • The stuff in diet soda makes the stomach plump up like a inflated tire. It's the chemical in the diet soda. It's the P word that you find in all diet soda bottles. That stuff also causes ACNE. I will NEVER drink diet soda again. NEVER.

  • Yes Americans have become fatter since eating more sweeteners , but they also now eat more Sugar and less fat . Ever since the US has turned in to a Low fat diet nation since the 70's the Country has become fatter . Its not the diet drinks that are causing everybody to become fat but the extra Sugar and Junk food your consuming .

    Less Sugar more fat and Protein Simple !

  • Funny, while I lost 90lbs in 7 months I drank probably 2-3 liters of diet pop every day. I'm off it now and I'm also not losing weight anymore but I feel good at 6ft 170

  • @jennymeister Diet coke or any coke will help make someone fat. It's not just about sugar and calories. youtube search ...how diet soda causes weight gain or look over there>>>> for info

  • @awwllright1 Read what I wrote dickwad. Diet coke does not make someone fat. Eating the burger makes someone fat. Idiot.

  • @jennymeister "I am that fat girl" "but make you fat? no." make up your mind...

  • Drinking diet soda nad using artificial sweeteners made me crave more sugar and that's why I stopped drinking it

  • I am that fat girl who will order a burger and a diet coke. because regular tastes disgusting!!!!!!!!!!! I really dont think diet drinks make you fat. rot you teeth, bloat you up, encourage acid reflux, yes. but make you fat? no. its calorieless!
