[QUOTE="zand, post: 2012082, member: 85197"] Again just half the story. I so wish the NHS would go on to warn that switching to diet versions is not the answer. Long term they are worse than sugary drinks. It isn't about calories. It's about the effect of diet drinks fooling the body into releasing insulin that it doesn't need. Too much insulin is way worse than too much sugar. I gave up sugary drinks in my teens, drank lots of diet drinks though and here I am, an insulin resistant T2. Personally I wish I had stuck to the sugary colas. My liver and gut microbiome (and every other part of my body) would have thanked me for it. NHS GPs when you have an obese person in front of you please test their insulin levels. These can become way too high 20 years before their blood sugar levels are affected. 20 years of damage that could have been avoided by simply telling the patient that they have too much insulin and are developing IR.
