I don't drink soda.
Beer, Water, Gatorade, Coffee or Iced Tea for me.

I would fathom beer and soda have damn near the same negative impacts as one another. They're both empty calories and offer little to no nutritional value.SnotBubbles;1470768 wrote:I don't drink soda.

A perfect example of the total wasting of money by public universities. I'd guess that while this tenured idiot spends his time on worthless research like this, he's totally inaccessable to students, does little actual teaching and has graduate TA's with bad English doing his heavy lifting. I'd also guess that during the time period of his study, tuition at Purdue went up at a higher rate than the weight of an average drinker of diet soda.

That nearly anything not consumed in moderation is bad for you? What a revelation.

Okay fine, but I was referring to drinking beer in a similar manner that people drink soda.
If you're putting down 3-4 beers a day, the potential "pros" are outweighed by the negatives of consuming that much alcohol.
If you are drinking a beer a day, it's probably the same as drinking a glass of wine a day, which is allegedly good for you as well.
What I'm getting at is GFY: I hope you hydroplane into a ditch on I-75 in Dayton while drunj
Disclaimer: And I shouldn't need to put that the last comment was a joke. I shouldn't have to put this disclaimer because F4F is gone, but I want to be safe. Thanks guys. Hope this helps.

Idk how anyone can drink the shit. My whole family who are all pretty big love it, yet I usually only drink tea or a sports drink yet I'm in good shape. I personally think Diet Coke is the worst thing of all time next to Diet Green Tea and Powerade Zero. Tastes like ass

We used to drink a decent amount of diet soda but lately we've essentially eliminated it. In the last month we've only shared one of those 44oz gas station sodas on our way back from Cleveland two weekends ago. The only reason we ended up getting it is because we were both hungover and it sounded good. We both get iced tea (if fresh brewed) or water when we go out now. Or beer. I like beer.

Diet, "zero", reduced sugar, whatever...all that stuff. It's all worse for you than the real thing. Diet Coke is worse for you than Coke. If you want to drink 10 glasses a day of each, you might get a little fatter on the regular Coke, but the aspartame in the Diet will make damn sure you are riddled with cancer. The study is stupid not because it states the obvious, but because it doesn't focus on the worst part of diet pop.
