That stuff tastes bitter like stevia. I can't stand it. I don't drink soda except as a treat once in a while, but all the sugar-free soda I can find has that infernal sweetener in it. I just want one without it.

Yeah, yeah, don't drink soda, I know. I don't need the lecture. Once a month or so I like a soft drink with my burger. I actually prefer regular soft drinks with natural sugar, but I'd like to avoid the calories if I can find something without that poison.

Get a water carbonator. Then you can carbonate filtered water. Make a sugar syrup yourself from organic cane sugar. There are also premade soda syrup that's organic you can get.

Unsweetened ice tea. I love it now. Or water, like real men used to drink.

I like it strong. I started drinking it when I ran out of the fake garbage sweetener. We have spring water on our property and it makes the best.

Big berkey makes a gravity fed fluoride filter. Not very portable but it's something.

A small amount of poison each day/week is still poison.

Artificial sweeteners are sweet-tasting additives found in consumable products as substitutes for naturally occurring sugars. They are derived from plant extracts or manufactured by chemical synthesis. Ingestion of sweeteners by insects can lead to significant physiological effects, such as mortality, decreased fecundity, and behavioral change. Due to their low toxicity toward humans and the issues associated with conventional insecticide usage, artificial sweeteners have recently gained attention for their potential use as biorational insecticides. Here, we review their impact on insects and potential as novel insecticides.many conventional pesticides have been replaced by newer biorational or “low risk” insecticides. According to Hara (2000), biorational or “reduced risk” insecticides are synthetic or natural compounds that effectively control insect pests, but have low toxicity to nontarget organisms (such as humans, animals and natural enemies) and the environment.

Yeah you might have heard of it: it's called water, and it's the healthiest drink in existence.

Mint, cucumbers, and a citrus fruit such as lime. Bruise the mint, slice the lime with the rind on and quarter it while removing the seeds, peel the cucumber and slice it. Let it steep in a cold place for a day.

There was a recent study that found the artificial sweeteners in basically everything cause your gut bacteria to get diseased and pass through the cell wall of your intestine.

So essentially drinking a diet coke is a chance to give yourself e-coli which is more resistant to treatment (Due to microfilm production, thanks to the sweeteners) It's like eating that romaine lettuce that Farm-Hand-Julio took a shit on but it's your own intestines shitting into your blood stream.

But regular sugar feeds cancer, so like... Pick your poison I guess.

Like my ancestors I'm brewing kombucha. Basically tea water and nutrients once my SCOBY is finished with it.

Buy a distiller and distill your tap water. Stop consuming drink and food for pleasure.
