What's better to drink daily, diet soda, or crystal light packets?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Similar ingredients: Both drinks contain artificial sweeteners, artificial colors and high acid. There are some studies that suggest (although not proven) a link between artificial sweeteners and cancer, weight gain and diabetes. It is healthier to drink water if possible.
