Why are zero sugar or diet versions of soft drinks often described as worse for you?
In: Biology
Because instead of using sugar they use artificial sweeteners. I don’t know the exact details anymore, but usually the body ingests the sugar and digests it as such. Artificial sweeteners set off the same signals as sugar, but don’t contain the same substances. The body recognizes sugar but doesn’t get any, which can lead to diabetes.
I really hope this is the right explanation
