LOL a can of Red Bull is ok every now and then but that stuff is terrible on the body if you drink lots of it. HAd a friend that was consuming cans of the stuff during her final exams and she ended up a shaking, jabbering wreck by the end of it.

That just goes to prove that education is bad for your health.

All fizzy drinks are bad for your health! http://www.organicconsumers.org/school/ ... 021605.cfm

There seems to be one small flaw in the study. People drink diet drinks because they are overweight. That doesn't necessarily mean that people are overweight because they drink diet drinks.

You need a control group to make a scientific study otherwise you can't tell what's cause and what's effect.

Those things will kill you...I have never ever had a diet soda and I know I am not missing anything!

What is the purpose of someone ordering a diet coke when their a$$ is hanging over the sides of a chair ordering a double cheeseburger, large french fries or a large pizza with extra cheese? They are overweight from the food that they eat. If they had good eating habits and possibly had 1 can of diet soda a day there probably wouldn't be a weight gain. But if they were drinking a liter of it through the course of the day there may be slight weight gain. With overweight people, take the diet soda off the menu and they will still remain overweight and continue to expand.

Overweight people find every excuse in the book for the reason they are overweight. Years ago it used to be glandular. Yeah, the gland between their nose and their chin. Never heard an overweight person say: I have bad eating habits and I enjoy eating that's why I'm overweight.

excercise regularly and you won't be overweight no matter what u eat -_-

tony89 , to an extent. You need calorie deficeit to lose weight, but people shouldn't under eat. Did you know it's recently been found that many cases of suspected MS are actually due to aspartame poisoning, where people have too many diet drinks, and eat foods containing sweetners rather than actual sugars? Food as it were for thought.

More urban myth Chocs, http://www.aspartame.net/rumors/Asparta ... ternet.asp

Do you believe EVERYTHING you read on t'internet?

Mind you, thinking about it? The ex Mrs Dillon did drink copious amounts of the stuff! And I always put her mood swings and violent temper down to Mad Cow Disease, who knows eeh?

Chocoholic , u seem to be really into this weight watching thing. i had to google MS and aspartame to make sense of wht u were saying
but nyways...the idea of loosing weight is simply to burn more calories than u consume. if ur over weight good chance is you love eating, so under eating is not an option. hence u excercise....which can be fun if u put ur head to it.

besides this sweetners n stuff dont make sense to me....if ur unhealthy start by eating healthier stuff not gulp down evn more chemicals n crap :S

ive got a frnd who's soo into this health stuff...he doesn't have and has never had, since the ages that i've known him atleast, anything from these fast food chains or sodas or sweetners or energy drinks. he's fit as hell and eats aloot, even sweets n chocolates n stuff. He's the living proof of my point

tony89 , You're a brave man Tony Giving Chocs advice about healthy eating!

Get him told Chocs!

lol why Bethsmum , is she a human-hogging monster?

There is nothing to tell, it is how I said it and thats it !

tony89 , Chocs is a bit of an expert on fitness, diet and health. There is nothing you can tell her!

Don't worry Bethsmum , my friends Google and Wikipedia will handle her well

Jus curious tho, is she a lean, 25 year old fitness first instructor or a chubby, 16 yr old google-geek desperate to loose weight to woo potential boyfrnds
