Title: Pepsi next
Post by: jimson on April 24, 2012, 11:21:24 PM: I don't know how healthy it is with artificial sweeteners, higher sodium and all, but the taste beats the hell out of diet soda, and it's 60 calories instead of 150.

What kind of side effects? Also the phosphoric acid in them to I would think could lead to significant problems... :uhoh

Yeah, there's a lot of debate about it, but much is without all of the facts. The studies regarding the cancer research are pretty interesting.

Personally I don't drink much soda anymore, and I used to drink a can a day.

Post by: FiLtH on April 26, 2012, 10:37:17 AM: I used to drink soda all the time. One favorite was a tuna sandwich and pickles, some chips and a tall sweaty glass of Pepsi with ice and lemon.

Now its iced tea or water. Gatorade on the road alot.
