  1. @N8mont4 Brown sugar is made of… *drum roll* WHITE SUGAR coated in molasses! It’s processed for sure! Look it up.

  2. How about common sense for a change. There are 0 calories in diet soda, you can not gain fat if you have no calories to convert.

  3. ill take a Super Size number one with a diet coke please! lol

  4. I used to add “sweet-n-low” to my black tea – but only 1/3 a sachet per cup, not to kill tea’s taste.
    How often can you see people in coffee bars adding 2-5 splendas per cup of coffee, thinking “spenda is safe for you”…
    People are so addicted to sugar, then when they become diabetic, or on the verge of it, they want to achieve that same sweetness of sugar they used to eat.
    How many sachet of equal (aspartame) are there in a bottle/can of Coke?

  5. Look up Billy meier, and Bringers of the dawn if you havent alerady =)

    A lot of it is about the sweeteners that are used, such as aspartame and sucralose. They are foreign to your body and either gets stored in your organs as toxicity or gets trapped in your fat cells, to be released into your body when you lose weight =P

    and the reason diet soda doesn’t really help you lose weight is, even though it has no sugar or calories, the chemicals make you crave bad food and eat more of it when you get it, just like the mice.

  7. @halflinks

    The soda itself doesn’t make you fat. Did you even watch the video? lol

  8. @jessomglol not all of it, no. Just not interesting, he kinda bashing my cola.

  9. I thought I was eating healthy. I really didn’t each that much food in terms of volume or calories each day. I usually ate a couple of bananas a day, dried fruit snacks, a good cereal, 3-4 cups of skim milk a day, etc. I was taking in at least 200g a day of sugar!! No wonder I couldn’t lose weight. I have almost knocked out all sugar and carbs from my diet. In 14 days I have lost 11 lbs & 2 in from my waist. Oh, I was also drinking 4-5 cans of diet Coke each day. That’s gone now too.

  10. aspartame ( a sweetner in diet drinks, candy, medicine, ect) forms cancer, diabetes, and even forms holes in your brain, and thats not even a fourth of the negative side effects.

  11. It’s not the artificial sweetner’s fault if people who are trying to lose weight simply cannot because they lack self-discipline when it comes to abstaining from the consumption of sweets. Know your body and consume in moderation!

    If you’re ignorant enough to drink an artificially sweetened drink along with eating a huge slice of cake and thinking that you will not gain weight because the two cancel each other out, you’re delusional and need to be prepared to suffer the consequences.

  12. They gained more weight than people drinking the soda with sugar? What soda in the USA is made with sugar? It’s not sugar, it’s High Fructose Corn Syrup – another excitotoxin.

  13. we aint rats!!

  14. @Theipodman56 that is very true but going on how popular diet soda is in the US and how fat people are getting i would say there is very strong circumstantial evidence to conclude that the effect in the rats is the same in humans

  15. if you want to drink soda, try the All Natural Red Bull Coke ( it is made by redbull, but doesnt contain redbull) it is just pure coke from natural ingridients. Research it. It is what I drink if I want some coke.

  16. @Theipodman56 but we are physiologically very similar to them :)

  17. Please visit NOASPA.com to vote on the aspartame issue

  18. we aint fucking mice

  19. haha i love this guy, he looks so humble all the time! kinda reminds me of a psychology professor i once had back in college. for some reason, this guy has a very trusting face.

  20. if you want to make food taste bad, add salt to sugary foods, that would kill your appetite in no time! haha! ‘course it would make you throw up too..

  21. Man i drink like a 6 pack a day of these things. I was stitching to just water. today when i seen this.

  22. Actually Zinzus, fuit juices if unpasteurized are perfectly harmless…and vitamin deficiencies cause hallucinations in some people…

  23. I drink flavored seltzer water. No sodium, sugar, artificial sweetners, or caffeine.

    I put frozen berries in it sometimes for a treat. Delicious.

  24. This just makes me sooo friggin angry~ ya drink the “diet stuff” to keep cals. down or none and now THIS!? WOWA~

  25. I usually just drink one tall glass of water with fresh-squeezed lemon/lime juice in it every morning. It’s actually good for the body.
