May affect heart health
People who routinely consume diet Coke have a longer-term increased risk of developing cardiac issues, according to many observational studies.
According to a study conducted on 59,614 women, drinking at least 2 diet beverages daily increased the chance of developing heart issues and dying from heart disease over a nine-year period. Older research has suggested that drinking soda, whether regular or diet, may raise the risk of stroke. Additionally, diet Coke has been linked to an increased risk of metabolic syndrome, a group of diseases that can raise your risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. Remember that while these research suggests a link between consuming diet soda and certain cardiac issues, further study is required to determine whether and how other factors may also be at play.
