Powerade zero

Options
Supposedly diet drinks are worse than regular. I love the taste of powerades zero, and the zero calorie factor is somewhat appealing (not gonna lie.). Is Powerade zero a bad thing to drink/diet drinks in general when trying to lose body fat? I've seen YouTube videos of body building ladies drinking it...doesn't make it right but they sure look good. Let me know your opinion.

    No negatives from a fat loss point of view.

    "Supposedly diet drinks are worse than regular."

    Who told you that? That's quite the blanket statement and generally false, in my opinion.

    It's a zero calories drink, so I see no different then any other. Though I will mention there is something in POWERade zero that spikes my Type 1 daughters blood sugar something awful. More so then if she drinks a regular one without dosing for it.

    I love powerade zero. I drink one everday. I don't see anything wrong with it other than if you had high blood pressure and were monitoring your sodium intake.
