Jesus christ 14 cans, lmao. Even when I was drinking alot of pop to try and supplement my low phosphorous, I couldnt drink that amount lmao. And while I understand that normal people wouldnt drink that limit, some would just because they said its ok lmao. I bet youd end up diabetic rather quickly. Also doesnt factor in individual sex, race, weight, metabolism, or another dozen factors. The dose makes the poison, I know. Fucking freon.
The problem with aspartame if I remember correctly is that its counter productive anyway. I cant remember exactly, but something about how the medication works causes you to just be hungrier in the end anyway. So your getting less sugar, but youll end up craving more food.
Intuitively, people choose non-caloric artificial sweeteners over sugar to lose or maintain weight. Sugar provides a large amount of rapidly absorbable carbohydrates, leading to excessive energy intake, weight gain, and metabolic syndrome [15,16,17]. Sugar and other caloric sweeteners such as high fructose corn syrup have been cast as the main culprits of the obesity epidemic. Whether due to a successful marketing effort on the part of the diet beverage industry or not, the weight conscious public often consider artificial sweeteners “health food” [6]. But do artificial sweeteners actually help reduce weight?
Surprisingly, epidemiologic data suggest the contrary. Several large scale prospective cohort studies found positive correlation between artificial sweetener use and weight gain. The San Antonio Heart Study examined 3,682 adults over a seven- to eight-year period in the 1980s [18]. When matched for initial body mass index (BMI), gender, ethnicity, and diet, drinkers of artificially sweetened beverages consistently had higher BMIs at the follow-up, with dose dependence on the amount of consumption. Average BMI gain was +1.01 kg/m2 for control and 1.78 kg/m2 for people in the third quartile for artificially sweetened beverage consumption. The American Cancer Society study conducted in early 1980s included 78,694 women who were highly homogenous with regard to age, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and lack of preexisting conditions [19]. At one-year follow-up, 2.7 percent to 7.1 percent more regular artificial sweetener users gained weight compared to non-users matched by initial weight. The difference in the amount gained between the two groups was less than two pounds, albeit statistically significant. Saccharin use was also associated with eight-year weight gain in 31,940 women from the Nurses’ Health Study conducted in the 1970s [20].
Back when I used to work full time, I could drink a can of pop for lunch and not feel guilty about it because that sugar and calories would be all I would consume in a 8-12 hour shift.

Before worrying about my fasting sugars, I could drink a can of pop for lunch (every day for work) and not feel guilty about it because that sugar and calories would be all I would consume in a 8-12 hour shift.
