Narrator: In the early 1960s, a new kind of beverage took the stage. It wasn’t a new shape, or color, or flavor. No, this was diet soda. And It. Was. Awesome.
With fewer calories and less sugar, diet soda promised to be a healthier alternative to regular soda. But like most promises in life that sound too good to be true, it probably is.
Can you tell the difference between a glass of regular and diet soda? Turns out, neither can your body. And that’s where the trouble starts.
Until recently, everything we ate contained some amount of calories. When we ate something sweet, for example, the brain sent signals to our pancreas. Which started producing insulin, that stored the sugar molecules in our cells for energy.
So, when we drink diet soda, the sweetness tricks our body into thinking it’s real sugar. But when those energy-packed calories don’t arrive, the insulin has nothing to store.
