Hi there, I love diet coke and can't seem to get rid of the habit of drinking it. I know it's not good for me. I feel like Im a smoker who is trying to give up. Apart from this I eat healthy food, I drink plenty of water and try to exercise. I do crave to have at least a glass a day. I wonder why is it so addictive?

I have to admit that I love drinking diet coke too. I can't stand the original "full fat" variety however, only the diet coke. I can quite happily drink several glasses of the stuff on a daily basis and I know Ishouldn't really do this, I can't help it, I'm addicted.

I drink almost a 12 pack of diet coke a day and I have done this for years. I don't like water or tea or any other kind of pop I could not live without my diet coke. If you are only drinking one glass a day I don't think you are addicted to it. The caffeine is what is addictive in it.

I do love softdrinks before, I mean I always drink softdrinks. They have this tastes that you want to crave for more. :) But I don't crave it much nowadays since my doctor told me it is bad for me... Cheers!

I'm sure you know how coke can affect your teeth, your liver, etc... just so you see it yourself put a chicken kidney in coke and you'll see how it dissolves in almost a day... It extremely acidic... (it also contains caffeine which is addictive) One cool thing you can try is throw a "mentos" sweet in diet coke and see what happens!! :)
