The carbonation creates carbonic acid in your teeth. It’s a huge driver of calories.

Of the of the issues with diet soda in particular is your tastes favor sweets. I used to drink 4-8 cans of Diet Dr Pepper daily. When I stopped, after a couple of weeks I found my taste preferences to be very different. I’d favor savory more attractive and sweet stuff would seem too sweet.



I can't fine anything talking about carbonic acid and calories. Is there something you're referring to?


Sorry - it was supposed to be “cavities”. Too late to edit I’m afraid.


Maybe they meant cavities?


Probably typed “caries” and got autocorrected
