Stevia and truvia are better to use as far as sugar substitutes
Aspartame is definitely not good, splenda is the worst and that's what they use in coke, not trying to scare you, like I said don't worry about every little thing you put in your body, if the doctors sensed a problem, they'd say something, if they're not concerned, you don't need to be either :)
Sweeteners not only In soda tho its in a lot of stuff . They ask a meal plan for every week. Im 36 weeks next time I go on Tuesday and ore likely get induced due ti preeclampsia. My diabetes has been controlled soley by diet and baby is fine get scanned weekly
tons meaning a glass or 2 a day!! lol im gona try to only drink 1 diet coke a day lol its hard:(...i get tested in a week or 2 for my diabeties test now im scared im gona fail!!
Yes you do have a choice, swhite. You can drink water.
Maybe your dietician sensed you were not receptive to that, and settled for just trying to keep you from drinking sugary things. Sometimes, you have to pick your battles, and it sounds like she avoided this one.
Next time you see her, ask if you should be drinking water or diet sodas, because you really want to do what's best. I know what the answer will be.
Im diabetic and have no choice to drink diet and eat sweetner and my dietician has never mentioned it. So cant be all too bad
