What’s worse for you health wise?

Assuming no “current” medical issues (overweight/diabetes/etc.)

Had a friend over who I haven’t seen in a while who recently quit drinking. Hats off to him since he needed to stop due to lack of control, but he brought over a 12 pack of Coke Zero. I realize this isn’t the same as the regular sugar filled red cans, but he put down five in the three hours he was here. Said he drinks about 10-12 a day.

I drink way more beer than I should (6-12 almost everyday), but rarely ever soda.

Got me thinking what’s worse. I guess 2 part question since I don’t really know the difference between regular Coke and Coke Zero other than sugar I suppose ?????

I’d think 10 beers would do much more harm than 10 diet drinks

We talking bud light or DIPAs? Either way I’d say the beer, but both aren’t good.

That's like asking if you'd rather be punched or kicked in the dick.

Either way you are getting hit in the dick.

Both are terribly unhealthy and can lead to fatty liver disease among other chronic disease.

Would think the beers would be better (relative) than the soft drinks

I’m not sure ten if anything in a day is healthy.

If I had to guess I guess maybe the beer is worse. But just slightly?

Coke Zero = zero calories
Beer = calories

So from a weight gain/loss perspective, zero calorie sodas are better. Can’t say for sure whether the artificial sweeteners are bad for you, though (carcinogenic, destabilizing gut bacteria etc).

10 of anything a day is probably not great generally, unless it’s water.

Imo alcohol should be banned, along with cigarettes

Soft drinks easily. Especially the damn corn syrup variety

But you shouldn’t be drinking 10 beers a day either.

How about switching to water

Beer has protein. In all honesty, consuming that much of each is both dangerous and unhealthy.

What about fast food, cookies and potato chips?

Plenty of people kill themselves with Popeyes and McDonald's.

10 beers is worse, but 10 coke zeros definitely ain’t much better.
