When drank in moderation, Diet Coke doesn't pose too much of a risk, but previous studies have also shown that drinking beverages with artificial sweeteners can lead to weight gain. One pharmacist has broken down what consuming one can of this soft drink does to the body in just an hour. The effects of drinking a can of Diet Coke can apparently be seen in just one hour, with an impact seen 10, 20, 40, and 60 minutes after finishing that last sip. He continued: "Unlike the small amount of satisfaction you get from regular Coke your body may still crave sweets. "A can of diet coke provides no nourishment and would replace a more nutritious drink you could have drunk while potentially depleting your body of essential minerals."
