Diet Coke is a very popular drink, with many people reaching for a can or a bottle for a caffeine boost. Also known as The Renegade Pharmacist, Niraj Naik first shared his professional knowledge back in 2015 through a viral infographic, and Diet Coke will likely be disappointed. According to Naik: "Like regular Coke, this can trigger insulin, which sends your body into fat storage mode." 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."
