    Okay, I've always been confused about this. Diet soda has zero calories, so why does it cause weight gain? (if it actually does)...

    According to research The sugar substitute or sweeteners in diet sodas go straight into the liver turning it to Insulin (Fat)

    Can you reference this research as everything I have seen indicates that this is completely incorrect.

    Oh and the documentary does say that when drinking soda, since it has no fiber, the sugar is absorbed immediately and your blood sugar rises. The liver gets a big sugar rush and it has no choice but to turn it into fat immediately.

    Happy you spelled it out for me. It's not like I had read the title or anything.
    By the way, this post was not an answer to your post but something I added as an afterthought to my previous post.

    Since you started this by stating the obvious I will end this by stating the obvious: I was not thanking you. :)

    Yeah next time I'll find a witty image created by somebody else. It seems to be all the the rage these days.

    No way.....really?

    oops, my bad.

    Oh, and by the way, the comment that sugar turns immediately into fat is not correct.

    And don't think it is true either. This documentary (the one the OP is talking about) also says that a "calorie is not a calorie" and that calorie out versus calories in is bogus. They do not support any of this with real evidence and seem to think that we should believe them just because it is a documentary.
