Well, it depends. Aspartame is a migraine trigger for me. My body does tolerate sucralose better.
I only get headaches when I can't have caffeine.
I rarely use artificial sweeteners in general, mainly if I put protein powder in a smoothie.0 -

No sense ingesting water either. It's only one molecule away from being hydrogen peroxide!...Hydrogen peroxide is often described as being “water but with one more oxygen atom”, a description which can give the incorrect impression that there is a great deal of similarity between the two compounds. Pure hydrogen peroxide will explode if heated to boiling, will cause serious contact burns to the skin and can set materials alight on contact...0 -
As to the original question - nonfat milk, iced tea, green tea, flavored waters, coffee, etc.0

And water is technically an incredibly explosive gas and a gas that supports combustion. Things don't necessarily retain their molecular properties when in a compound with other elements.0

Yep! All soda is toxic

My favorite is dasani in the can (which mimicks the sound of opening a coke) and deer park water carbonated in either orange or watermelon. Really good!

Freshly squeezed orange juice, pure coconut water, home made almond milk - or organic additive free, herbal tea or any tea you prefer, V8 homemade juice or organic store bought (a lot of salt in those still plus main veg is tomato)...0

Seltzers are a good alternative, there are a variety of flavors available. Also, I drink a lot of black coffee. It takes a little getting used to, but at this point I prefer my coffee black as opposed to with cream and sugar.0
