Why is diet soda better than regular soda?

Answer 1

its not really. it has less calories but a ton more salt so you really have to decide which is worse. if you drink like a fish then diet. if you only have o soda once in a while regular.

Answer 2

A can of regular soda typically has about 100 calories. There is research that if you drink a soda a day, you are likely to gain 10-15 pounds per year. It makes sense if you think about it. 100 calories X 365 days in a year = 36,500. I know diet doesn't taste as good as the real thing, but it pays off in the end.

Answer 3

It really isn't much better. Regular soda has a lot of sugar where diet soda has a lot of sodium. There is only one that I have found that has neither and that is diet rite zero. However all I drink is water.

Answer 4

Personally, I think that regular soda is better than diet soda!!!

Answer 5

diet soda is better as it has less sugar that the regular soda

Answer 6

Because generally speaking, diet sodas contain no sugar.

Answer 7

Well, that is subjective....depends on who you ask.

On the upside, it is calorie free....and doesn't stain, or leave things sticky, if spilled.

The downer is all the sodium, and I really don't think it helps very much if you are dieting. I drink diet. Gotta have it! lol

Answer 8

Better as in healthier or better as in taste?

The second one is a matter of opinion.

As for healthier, I think it has less calories or something, but if you want healthy just drink water.

Answer 9

Because it lacks all the bad stuff except sodium.

No calories
No carbs

Answer 10

Less calories
