Lots of bad effects: Occasional drink is ok but to 'drink always ' is not good for health of both, first lots of excessive calories is not good may lead to diabetes, caffeine may cause miscarriage , phosphates will deplete badly needed calcium, by products of chemical additives could be toxic , even diet soda sweeteners are not healthy, even relatively safe ' splanda' if enters brain can not come out of it, .
