Is it safe to drink non-sugary drinks (like coke zero) while on a diet? Or do the artificial sweeteners just make you fat in some sneaky way?
In: Chemistry
The only way they are beneficial for weight loss is due to the fact that they have less calories. Which means, all other factors unchanged, you just pour less fuel into your body.
It won’t make you lose weight if you replace those calories by eating cake. It’s passive and a diet soda won’t cancel out a Twinkie as some people assume.
That being said there are pills you can take that prevent fats from being digested.
