Can diet coke cause you to lose or gain weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may not do either: But aspartame is mildly toxic and causes a brain change known as "excitotoxicity". This tends to be worse when brain cells are poorly energized-------and that reflects poor diet that could cause weight gain.
