Default Is Diet Mountain Dew Bad?
There is no sugar in it?

Zero calories / Zero carbs

I try to stay away from all soda's even diet. I have actually started to make my own herbal teas/iced teas to stay away from the processed drinks and caffein. Just a much healthier option....just my .02 cents.

I avoid all carbonated drinks, too. Diet and regular. Since I've been drinking just water I have noticed a drastic difference in the way I feel. Plus.....I've lost weight!

If you don't like plain water just squeeze a lemon into it and put about 1/2 a packet of Splenda (or to taste).

How much of it do you drink per day on avg?

a couple a week probably is OK,, but many each day is not good at all..

My son used to be hooked on the reg mt dew.
mainly for the caffeine .. he finally quit buying it.

pop/soda drinks are not going to help anyone be healthier at all. IMO
It's one of the first things to eliminate, when health is an issue.

I don't know about the diabetic side of it or how it affects blood sugar.
