Answers:
Primarily the "fake" sugar!. These are man made compounds that the human body has no recognition of!. Your body can't tell the difference between these compounds and cardboard or plastic!. No one is really sure what they are going to do over long periods of time but, as is the case with "trans fats" and other man made edibles, the seem to cause a lot of harm!. In fact there are those in the medical/nutritional communities who will also go as far as to relate the surge of ADHD and other neurological problems to these man made processed substances!. Also, the sweet taste, tricks the brain and there is research suggesting that it will actually stimulate the hunger centers in the brain thereby ultimately making you want to eat more!. My own kids, when they are allowed to drink a soda, it's always the non-diet form!.!.!.with good old fashioned, NATURAL, sugar (in moderation of course)Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is nothing wrong with it per say, it just does not have anything that you should be drinking it for!. Why ingest anything that is doing nothing for you except putting a sugar substitute into your body!. Why not just drink water!? At least water flushes out impurities without putting any in!.
At least it's good that you are drinking soda that is caffeine free!. Caffeine raises the blood pressure and so the metabolism slows down to compensate!.
Sounds to me like you just like the carbonation which can be a good thing in that it does aid in belching and ridding the body of unnecessary gases!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

For one thing all artificial sweeteners are poison!.!.!.Except for Stevia which can be purchased at a health food store!. It won't kill you, but it really doesn't taste very good!.!.!. Also, there is absolutely NO proof that drinking diet soda has any weight loss benefits!.Third, most diet soda tastes like crap!.!.!.!.So I guess if a person wants to drink a poison, crap tasting drink that will probably not help at all with weight loss, then go ahead!. But a much more effective plan would be to drink tea ( with lemon) or water and get some exercise and then you won't have to worry about it!.!.!.Also caffeine is really bad for your heart and blood pressure and most diet sodas still have the caffeine!. They also contain salt which is not good either!.!.!.So as far as drinking diet soda, I think the negatives far outweigh any possible benefits ( which are zero ) I realise that you said that what you drink has no caffeine or salt, no real sugar, so basically you are drinking poison water that has been coloured brown with some type of dye, which is usually very unhealthy as well!.!.!.So stick with the tea or water, you will someday be glad you did, neither of those cause cancer!.!.!.(at least if they do we are not aware of it yet)Www@Answer-Health@Com

The biggest problem with most diet soda is that it is sweetened with high fructose corn syrup!. This is a sweetener that is a combination of 2 natural sweeteners!. The problem is that since it is not naturally occurring, our bodies do not have the enzymes necessary to break it down & either utilize it as energy or to eliminate it from our bodies!. The result being that it is stored as fat!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

hm!. caffeine, salt and sugar are NOT the worst thing you find in sodas!.
sweeteners like ASPARTAME are cancerous and are found in sugar free drinks, because they are cheaper than good substitutes, like isomalt(or whatever you call it in English)!. the carbon dioxide in fizzy drinks and stabilizers and crap lab created acids are badWww@Answer-Health@Com

The stuff that's in it!. I forgot the name!.
Aspartame, now I remember!.
Edit- Okay for those who don't agree, read

that's so funny when you go to a fast food place and you see a 300 pound person ordering 6 cheeseburgers and a diet coke hahahaha, what the **** is the pointWww@Answer-Health@Com

In addition to what everyone else has already said (lack of nutrition, artificial sweeteners!.!.!.), it does not hydrate you!. Water or something made primarily out of water is a much better option!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

the biggest thing would be is that diet soda is very acidic and therefore hard on your teeth!. Drink threw a straw, that helps!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
