Your body doesn't know the difference between corn syrup and sugar, nor does it process it differently.

Incorrect, sugar is roughly 50/50 glucose to fructose. Corn syrup has more fructose than glucose.

If excess glucose is consumed in the diet, it will first be stored as glycogen, and secondarily as fat. Fructose on the other hand, takes a different path. When fructose is consumed, it is exclusively metabolized in the liver, where a particular enzyme, fructokinase, will allow for the uptake of fructose This is most likely the cause of NAFLD.

We usually get the ones from Costco or Aldi’s.

I bounce around a lot as to which is my favorite.

Putt a gun to my head to choose one, I’d pick pink grapefruit.

Diet drinks will make you fat.

Correct. All you are doing in switching from regular soda to ‘diet’ or ‘zero’ is trading Diabetes for cancer or leukemia. I’d rather have The Diabetes.

Most diet drinks have caffeine and flavor.

Water does not.

No it isn’t. No sugar substitute actually tastes good.

I have a rule, if you can not drink something at room temperature you probably should not be drinking it.


Coffee at room temp is a nogo.

H20 at room temp is good

Ice Tea needs to be cold

Hot tea needs to be hot

Beer at room temp is pretty gross too. I don't even regularly drink water at room temp.
