We all know by now diet soda is one of the worst
things that you could drink while trying to get in shape, with all those chemicals, high
fructose corn syrup, and a number of health problems that could be a direct result of this
carbonated cocktail that is worshipped by those that don't care about their health or body. I
know because your reading this, that you do in fact, care about you body and health, so back
to the question, is diet drinks good for you?
Some people really
believe that drinking diet beverages is a good thing while trying to loose abdominal fat. In fact,
I've talked to a lot of people that are so proud to say they are on a great diet eating all the
right foods and they only drink diet soda. I will tell you right now, there is NOTHING
at all healthy about drinking diet beverages. In fact, I have seen diet soda studies that
have dedicated diet soda drinkers and got even fatter than there regular soda drinking
counterparts. This should already answer your question, diet soda is not good for you at all,
does it make you fatter? Without a doubt.
You may be thinking
"How does diet soda make you fat"? I thought it was better for you?
Here are some findings of a 8
year study done by a Texas University that I have read in the past.Below are claims by the students that did the study."What we found and was not that surprising, was that the total soft drink
use was linked to the overweight"
"What the surprising
fact was that when we looked at the people only drinking diet beverages, there risk to stay
overweight was even higher.""There was a 42 percent increase in risk of being overweight, per can of diet
soda they drank per day." Ok, so now all these studies and facts are coming out saying how bad diet soda is
and how it makes you fatter, when everyone thought regular soda was the bad guy. Well, there are
many factors that you need to realize first.
Right of the bat, all
of the artificial sweeteners in diet drinks create a negative hormonal response in your body and
the fat storing hormone increases production. When this happens, the fat storing hormone tells your
body its hungry for more sweets and bad carbohydrates in a short time period after consuming the
diet beverage.Another
reason why people get fatter while drinking diet drinks is because they subconsciously think they
can eat more of everything else, Which means more overall daily calorie intake. There is a great
article about this in the
The Truth About Six Pack Abs eBook.
This is to inform you that you really
need to just stop drinking diet soda or any other diet drink with artificial sweeteners. There is
really no other way around it.
So what are good
alternatives to diet drinks? One of the best is just plain water with a lemon wedge or unsweetened iced teas.
many options. Your many options are Black, White, Green, Red or Oolong. You can get creative and as
a bonus you will be getting a much more array of antioxidant's.
