A member asked:
Does diet soda lead to diabetes? it can't be worse than regular soda can it? some say yes some say no.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both do: A study last year suggested that diet drinks double the risk of diabetes. It is not clear which is worse, only that both of them can cause diabetes. Better to avoid them altogether! Good luck.
