Does diet coke eat the insides of your intestines?
I’ve heard that diet coke(or diet anything) is horrible for you, and that it eats your stomach. Fact or fiction?
Chosen Answer:
a coke a day won,t hurt. some people use it as a sub for water. this is where it gets harmful. your body has to work very hard to eliminate the acid and sugar in soda. it also affects your blood pressure, and your heart rate. my wife limits herself to one a day, or less. my grandkids are not allowed to have it at home; ever. the phosphoric acid in soda leached calcium from your bones.

no more than regular coke.
No, but it contains aspartame, which is very bad for you.
Do some personal investigation into the ingredients used in this product and packaged in aluminum.
euh……no
diet coke has shown results of cancer in some rats but it does not have any harmful effects on humans. If it did it would not be on sale.
I really doubt it … May be a long term effect after drinking it for many years, but then again, i know people who have drank it for as long as i live and nothing has happened to them. Except the addiction ha ha.

Im not sure it eats your insides, but it’s definitely bad for you, I gave up soda last year! but still addicted to sweets:/ But seriously soda is bad for you, even my doctor told me so
no but it is cancer in a can
Considering that your upper GI tract is able to handle pure stomach acid, artificial sweetener won’t damage your intestines.
I have been drinking tons of Diet Coke for years. I’ve gotten better lately but still way too much. At least a 2 liter a day. I was drinking a 3 liter a day plus a few 20 oz. bottles at work.
My intestines are still fine. I don’t have cancer, high blood pressure, rotten teeth, weak bones or any other thing that it is supposed to cause.
Maybe because I’ve been drinking so much for so long that my body doesn’t realize it’s supposed to be so bad for me.
