>tasty and sweet as fuck
>zero calories
How do they do it? It makes no sense.
aspartame, which increases risk of depression in young adults according to recent studies
>be obese young adult
>drink diet dr pepper because it says diet on it and i hate being fat
>my normal peers rarely drink soda
>man i'm depressed, must be the aspartame

in general artificial zero calorie sweeteners mess with the chemistry of your brain. when you taste the sweetness in your mouth your brain expects/prepares for sugar input, when your body does not receive the expected input of calories etc from the sugar it starts to freak out and actually turns up your appetite and such to compensate.
in general just drink some tea water or coffee

but aspartame has calories... do you mean to tell me they would just lie like that?
>>35465266
aspartame has so few calories per serving that they dont have to show it on a nutritional label
>>35465256
What a retarded load of broscience. How do people seriously buy into this shit?
Sounds more like fatties making an excuse as to why they're still getting fat while drinking diet coke. If you're too weak willed that you go on a binge eating fest after drinking a diet coke, then you should probably do something about that first.

This
Every time I press someone on it they eventually just admit they don't like the taste of aspartame but want an objective reason to dislike it.

Wrong.

Yeah keep drinking soda like it's a measure of how strong-willed you are

>he called me out on my bullshit?
>he must be an obsessive soda drinker!
Nice baseless assumptions, moron. I don't even drink soda. Continue being a retard.

It's several hundred times sweeter than sugar, and 4 times more calorically dense. Therefore, each can has a fraction of a gram of aspartame in it.
