I drink upwards of 15 bottles of Diet Peach SNAPPLE per day. Is this bad thing and if not, how can I quit..?

Yes! That is so bad for you. Think of all that artificial sweetener just collecting into your liver and reeking havoc. Who knows what man made chemicals can do to a human over a period of time especially excessive amounts. Just drink water.

Your daily diet doesn't sound balanced.  Eat regular meals during the day or 5 small meals and 2-3 healthy snacks.  Drink plenty of water and take a daily vitamin.  At night, if you can't stop the craving, go for a healthier snack, like, peanuts mixed with cereal and raisins.  It is actually good and you get the sweets and salts too from it!  Have about a cup of it.  Believe me it is filling, you might not even eat a whole cup.\nOne more thing.  If you deprive yourself of your favorite snack, you'll binge later on.  So during your day you can have one serving of something that is your favorite.

Yeah, I think it's the Yellow 5 dye that they put in the soda that causes problems... But you have to drink a LOT for it to be a problem!  Then again, I know some guys who drink 6 a day :p

You want to drink at least two litres a day and as much as a gallon.  Some suggest drinking as much as you can.  I find that about 2 and a half - 3 litres a day is what is comfortable for me.  As for how often, I would say divide the ammount that you drink daily into 8-18oz servings spread throughout the day whenever you can.  I generally drink the mixture 4 - 6 times a day.  I spread them somewhat evenly throughout the day but find it helpful to listen to my bodies cravings.  If I feel hungry or am craving food, thats when I mix the cleanser up and it generally takes that craving away.\n\nGood luck!

Subject: Beware of diet soft drinks  \nDiet Softdrink is doing it...\n \n \nPlease read this! It may help you or someone you know.\n\nIn October of 2001, my sister started getting very sick. She had stomach spasms and she was having a hard time getting around. Walking was a major chore. It took everything she had just to get out\nof bed; she was in so much pain.\n\nBy March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and muscle biopsies and was on 24 various prescription medications. The doctors could not determine what was wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and so sick...she just knew she was dying.\n\nShe put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her oldest daughters name, and made sure that her younger children were to be taken care of.. She also wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to FL (basically in a wheelchair) for March 22nd.\n\nOn March 19th I called her to ask how her most recent tests went, and she said they didn't find anything on the test, but they believe she had MS. (Multiple Sclerosis)\n\nI recalled an article a friend of mine E-mailed to me and I asked my sister if she drank diet soda? She told me that she did. As a matter of fact, she was getting ready to crack one open that moment... I told her not to open it, and to stop drinking the diet soda !!! I E-mailed her the article my friend, a lawyer, had sent.\n\nMy sister called me within 32 hours after our phone conversation and told me she had stopped drinking the diet soda AND she could walk!!!! The muscle spasms went away. She said she didn't feel 100% but she sure felt a lot better. She told me she was going to her doctor with this article and would call me when she got home.\n\nWell, she called me, and said her doctor was amazed! He is going to call all of his MS patients to find out if they consumed artificial sweeteners of any kind...\nIn a nutshell, she was being poisoned by the Aspartame in the diet soda... and literally dying a slow and miserable death.\nWhen she got to FL March 22nd, all she had to take was one pill, and that was a pill for the Aspartame poisoning! She is well on her way to a complete recovery . and she is walking!!! No wheelchair!!!\n \nThis article saved her life.\n\nIf it says "SUGAR FREE" on the label, DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!\n\nI have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on "ASPARTAME," marketed as 'NutraSweet,' 'Equal,' and 'Spoonful.'\nIn the keynote address by the EPA, it was announced that in the United Statesin 2001 there is an epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus. It was difficult to determine exactly what toxin was causing this to be rampant.\n\nI stood up and said that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject. I will explain why Aspartame is so dangerous: When the temperature of this sweetener exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in ASPARTAME converts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in turn causes metabolic acidosis. Formic acid is the poison found in the sting of fire ants. The methanol toxicity mimics, among other conditions, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus. Many people were being diagnosed in error. Although multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence..., methanol toxicity is!\n\nSystemic lupus has become almost as rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially with Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers. The victim usually does not know that the Aspartame is the culprit. He or she continues its use; irritating the lupus to such a degree that it may become a life-threatening condition.. We have seen patients with systemic lupus become asymptotic, once taken off diet sodas.\n\nIn cases of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, (when in reality, the disease is methanol toxicity), most of the symptoms disappear. We've seen many cases where vision loss returned and hearing loss improved markedly.\n\nThis also applies to cases of tinnitus and fibromyalgia.\n\nDuring a lecture,

If you want me to find out about what a friend did, I can do that.  But, its not a pretty thing.  Basically theres a little list of stuff you can eat for a month, and you have to drink this really nasty drink.   The only problem is, she didn't really gain alot of energy.  \n\nNow, what I do.   This is going to sound nerdy or whatever, but, I play ddr (Dance Dance Revolution.) from when I get home till when I sleep.  It makes you a little sore, and sleepy.  But the next day you have alot of energy and feel awesome.  I do it for about 3 hours a day.  And regardless of what people think, its an awesome work out.  Ive lost 30 pounds doing that.   Though, you can't eat alot of bad food, like candy an stuff.  Also, drink alot of water when exercising regardless of the exercise.  It helps to lose weight and detox.  \n\nNow, cut certain things from your diet.  Anything thats Soda, aka coke cola, Pepsi, etc.  Not only do they make you gain weight, but they damage things.  Mocha's are also a good idea to cut, if you drink them.  The large ones have around 1000 calories, depending on the place, company, etc.   Another big one is, don't eat fast food.  That is worse for you then soda or mochas.  Ive experienced it myself, but, the more I eat, the less energy I have, the more I hurt, the more weight I gain, but thats pretty much known now.   It may be hard to break, but thats because of the mass MSG in the food.  Its as addicting if not more then coffee.  But, it does alot more damage then coffee.   \n\nSo, stay away from fast food, soda, and if possible, mocha's.  Not coffee, but the mochas because of the milk and all the other stuff.  And stay away from MSG, mono sodium Glutamate.  That is in alot of things now, canned food, chips, fast food...just watch those, and you'll gain energy, and even if you don't exercise, you will start to lose weight.  But, the more you exercise, the more you'll lose weight.\n\nIf you don't have ddr, I would run or jog for a couple hours.  When you get back, you'll be tired, but after a while you'll actually get more energy, and feel better.

First of all, u are doing it the wrong way...U MUST eat 3 meals a day even if they are small ones.  Eat more vegetables and lean meat.  Cut down on your coke and go into diet coke or coke zero.  Be careful, what u are telling me is that u are going to make yourself sick.  If u need help go see your doctor

Oh yeah! My friend told me the same story! Weird... ;-)\n\nI think, what you need to do, is limit the amount of iced tea you drink. One a day, possibly? Also, drink other drinks like orange juice and MILK. I think it is true because my friend asked MY health teacher and he said that is was. I think it can happen, and if you limit your amounts, you should be fine. You can get "unaddicted" slowly, but surely.\n\nHope this helps!

Do you really want advice or someone to pat you on the back and say it's a good thing so that your choice of going on a juice diet can be justified?\n\nFruit juices are not a good choice and should be avoided. All fiber is gone and all that's left is sugar. Let's look at Orange Juice for example.  For all the heavy advertising that OJ is a good source of vitamin C, folic acid, potassium, and other vitanutrients, OJ is also extremely high in sugar--more than the average candy bar. Apple Juice, Grape Juice, pineapple juice, and prune juice have even more.  \n\nAmong vegetable juices carrot juice is very high in sugar and should be avoided.  However, tomato juice is a good choice as it contains enough lycopene to make a difference.\n\nIf you lose weight like this is will be only temporary. Not healthy at all either. Also how is eating a balanced diet more boring that drinking sugary juice?

Yeah really! I agree. I always see fat people drinking diet coke. It's like OBVIOUSLY it isn't working for you. Hahah. =P

stay away from that stuff. It is degrading and addicting. If you can't stop -- you need professional help. It will destroy any relationships you have or hope to have.

No, Diet Coke is not fattening. It has zero calories, so can not cause any weight gain. 1 Coke a day should not hurt you.\n\nSome people are concerned that the artificial sweetener may not be good for you, however, the sugar in the regular Coke (in any soda pop) is definitely bad for your teeth.

You sound just like my older sister, shes addicted to chocs.... too much really isn't any good, think of your health i always say the same to my sister, im sure one of these days she will be diabetic.for the ammount she also eats.  Try to cut down, so that you will stop. this may sound hard to you, but its the same for ciggies, i was a heavy smoker for years. i  had health problems. I'm now a non smoker. nothing comes easy you need the willpower...

No, it's not good for you so don't consume it at all. I hear a glass or red wine a day is good.
