Question 1

if diet pepsi has no calories and no sugar why is it helpful for losing weight?

Accepted Answer

Not helpful: I am guessing your question is meant to read why it's not helpful for losing weight, because it causes weight gain. People who drink 12 oz. Diet soda have a 33% increased risk of type 2 diabetes & those who dink 20 oz. Have 66% increased risk! they cause increased Insulin release, slow metabolism & cause cravings for carbs. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-mark-hyman/diet-soda-health_b_2698494.html.

Question 2

why is diet soda not recommended for losing weight?

Accepted Answer

A sweet imposter: Although diet soda has no caloric value by itself, the sweet taste from it and caffeine are often addicting. Drinking diet soda/juices teaches your body to like sweet and when u don't have it, u tend to snack on sweet junk-foods, which are big wt gainers. Also, soda binds iron and calcium in your stomache/intestine contributing to anemia and thinning bones. Consult doc. Good luck.

Question 6

is that acai berry diet good for losing weight rapidly?

Accepted Answer

Fiber effect: I don't have any personal experience. 1 ounce of acai berry juice contains approximately 15.6 calories. The açai berry has about 247 calories per 100-grams. 50 grams of powdered acai pulp has about 26 grams of dietary fiber. Because dietary fiber can help one to feel full it may be helpful for appetite suppression.
