Today, my dear fashion-lovers, I even don’t have enough time to say “Hello!” to you. Why? Because, I am writing about one of the most controversial and the most doubtful drinks of the century (and of the previous century as well!) – Coke. Actually, it has no connection to style and fashion, but after a closer look, you will understand, there is no style, glam and fashion without you and you have to be healthy. Because, a sound mind in a sound body.

Diet coke

I am not a fat person and have never been crazy about diets, but I adore Coke (used to adore, before this post) and prefer to enjoy its taste instead of thinking about health impact. But, the following information has changed my opinion. Diet Coke is called DIET, ’cause it is aimed to make your thinner, healthier and more attractive and what do we have in reality? It is highly promoted in mass media, it is a sponsor of various sport tournaments and activities. It is the 4th commonly consumed carbonated drink in our world and even a corporate partner of FIFA. Reasonable evidence of its popularity and no suspicions. But, the world is not a Disney Product, we have to face the truth:

  • Coke is black water with synthetic chemicals:(just some of them: caramel colour, citric acid, carbonated water, aspartame and caffeine etc.) Also, it is said, that natural flavours are added to it. I don’t know how natural they are, but I’ve got a lot of doubts as to their naturalness.
  • Coke is aimed to help people lose weight and in fact, it has calories and because of its sweeteners prevents you from getting a feeling of satiation, moreover, Coke can block your ability to burn fat, thus, it is a common knowledge, you will feel tired throughout the day and will be extremely hungry.

So, next time, before drinking a can of Diet Coke think about health and remember, that you are not a fool, and very often successful marketing strategies can substitute medical facts, don’t let them pull your leg!
