diet soda information

I get severe head aches when I drink Diet Soda, off brand or not, could it be an intolerance to the artificial sweetener or an allergy?

Diet and decaf are the worse no matter if you're pregnant or not. I like fizzy drinks so it doesn't have to be soda. Maybe find a different alternative?

Thanks. I just wanted one diet root beer because I am dying for root beer lol.

Ok, so I cut regular soda out of my diet. I normally drink water, diet can iced tea (or fresh) and seltzer. Now my question is.... is diet soda OK in moderation? Like when me and my bf go to a mall, water gets so boring and the fast food places generally never have seltzer water. So therefore I'm forced with diet soda (YUCK). Is it ok just on the weekends? I mean I guess I'm doing something right, I've lost 30.5bs since 9/14 (not even 3 months yet) and still have another 12.

What is everyone's thoughts on drinking diet soda? I know they say to stay away from artificial sugars, but I've been drinking diet soda forever & I'm having a hard time giving it up. Is one a day bad?

I wouldn't drink any. Soda and diet soda is bad for you whether you are pregnant or not.

If it is not diet soda, that is one heck of a sugar load. I think it is the equivalent to 12 teaspoons of sugar in a 12-ounce can. And unfortunately, if it is diet soda, it is loaded with chemicals. Hate to say it because the sugar gives you a higher diabetes risk and a higher risk that your child will later on develop diabetes, and the chemicals are just nasty for you. Can you taper off by cutting the soda in half with sparkling water?

No its definitly the asparteme that is bad, but thats the reason you should never drink diet soda. Asparteme is pure poison. Just do your research on it. Also watch out for pedialite for babies they started putting that crap in there too. Your much better off with a sugary soda then that stuff. You want to take it easy on the caffeine too, but I would definitly worry more about the asparteme then anything.

Diet soda is a no no during pregnancy. It has aspartame in it. My dr said no artificial sweeteners!

I LOVE high fructose corn syrup!!

Hi! I know what your going through.. I myself just quit drinking soda all together about 4 days ago and haven't looked back since! I started drinking water and sometimes I add those flavor packs like the crystal light you mentioned. Alot of the flavor packs actually come as appetite suppressants so that helps too. I like the Kellogs Kiwi/Strawberry flavor for that but they also have pink lemonade. I did a search for your question on line and here is a quote from the web site I found.

Hi Ladies what are your thoughts on coffee 1 small cup a day, also what do you think about diet drinks in moderation. I love soda I know its bad for you and I am drinking tons of water these days but sometimes only a soda will do.

I havent drank diet soda my whole pregnancy...I just wanted to know if I could have one cup on diet coke? Im 37 almost 38 weeks pregnant.

I gave up all pop once I realized how much sugar is in a glass of pop. Diet soda is even worse. Most diet soda has an ingredient in it called Aspartame. Did you know that one of the ingredients of aspartame is wood alchohol. No joke. I researched aspartame and discovered this. Wood alcohol is actually a poison. Also the more diet soda you drink, the greater your craving for sugar is. Soda is also very bad for your intestines.

You're better off drinking a regular soda than diet because of the aspartame. Aspartame isn't good for you at all!

Then if you lose or gain weight, you can look back and see what changes you made in your diet. To fall back on the diet diary, you need to keep your exercise level same every day. Take care!

The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history.

Does diet soda cause tooth decay? My friend allows her daughter to drink limitless quantities of diet coke, and she insists it isn't the cause of her tooth problems. The daughter has had a silver tooth, and more recently major fillings in some of her back baby teeth, for which the dentist wanted to put her under general anesthesia. My friend insists diet Coke is perfectly fine for teeth?

Have you hae much water today? You could be dehydrated.

I'm not a smoker, I've tried many different tea's, gargling salt but never both salt and baking soda will have to try. I do take high blood pressure medication but, I was having problem before I started taking medication. I've recently changed diet to a more healthier one but, again had problem before diet change. I will also try no dairy to see if that has any affect.
