I just drank two of them and I'm starving now!!! Does that acid break down the food in my stomach more quickly?

    Are you sure you are hungry? Maybe you just need to drink some water.

    Why would I do that? I just drank two Coke Zeros. I'm not thirsty...

    Only water quenches your thirst. Everything else dehydrates you, beer is even worse than soda.

    There has been a lot on the news lately about diet sodas and their effect on people who drink them.

    Many people use artificial sweeteners to cut their caloric intake, but the very opposite effect can occur. New research shows that artificial sweeteners stimulate taste receptors that sense sweetness in both the esophagus and stomach. Anticipating energy, the pancreas releases insulin, an important hormone for accumulating body fat. At the same time, chemicals are sent to the brain’s satiety center, which becomes confused as to whether or not the body is actually receiving calories. The result? You feel even hungrier and less full, which can lead to weight gain.

    I thought that insulin was the body's delivery system for many nutrients, including proteins?

    And I need it for my caffeine delivery.

    You need to get the liquid protein to fill you up better
