Question: Coke vs. Diet Coke/Coke Zero...Which is worse: High Fructose Corn Syrup or Aspartame/Sucralose?

I've heard many different theories on this and I want an answer. I drink mostly Diet sodas because obviously anything packed with High Fructose Corn Syrup (or Sugar) is bad for you because the sugar becomes stored as fat to be used as energy later. Therefore, I have removed any non-Diet sodas from my diet (i.e. Coke, Pepsi, etc.)



HOWEVER, I have recently be hearing theories that Diet sodas are also bad for you because the Aspartame/Sucralose (artificial sweeteners) are un-natural toxins that your body can have trouble digesting, therefore screwing up your metabolism (in other words, your body thinks it's drinking a sugar-loaded beverage, when in actuality, there is nothing there to metabolize). Furthermore, I've heard that these artificial sweeteners can cause different types of cancers.



Obviously, the best choice would be to stop drinking sodas all together, but sometimes there isn't a choice, and I'm forced to choose a soda.



So what's worse: Coke or Diet Coke?
