I think water would be the best thing for you, if you are dehydrated already then beer will just make it worse!

Diet soda. Each can of regular contains 12 spoons of sugar. \nDiet, does not.\nAs you said, none would be better. Fruit juices, smoothies etc.\nBest of luck

You may think that if you drink diet soda that you are out of harm’s way. This is the furthest thing from the truth because aspartame which is used instead of sugar is even worse than sugar. Disasters that result from aspartame use include:\nCancer \nHair loss \nDepression \nDementia \nBehavioral disturbances

If you ask me, and I'm still a student in high school, kids shouldn't be allowed to purchase soda at school, especially at a young age.  Soda can make kids jittery, over-anxious, and hyper because of all of the soda in it.  Along with the sugar high comes the crash, in which kids get really cranky and tired.  Soda is bad for your teeth, as well as your nutrition, and I can't see any benefit from soda.  Water and juice taste just as good, but are better for you.

Thats why soda is so bad for you.  Your basically dumping a can of acid into your body.  I can't even imagine the damage it does in there.

If you are replacing other drinks like juice and soda then you are better off.  But the best thing would be to drink plain water.\n\nI am not a big fan of artificial sweeteners I think they are hurting our bodies.

Coke or an soda can be considered an irritant, it isn't necessarily going to "give" you a bladder infection. The infection is caused by  bacteria. However, excessive use may irritate you. Soda also dehydrates you, and for proper urinary health you should be drinking lots of water, and also cranberry juice. Your physician was definitely right in telling you that it could have made the bladder infection worse. Drinking too much coke-cola can aggravate the symptoms of an already existing bladder infection, and can possibly raise the chances of another one. Drinking soda in moderation is not bad, but over-use is not good. If I were you, I would cut out the soda for awhile, drink plenty of water, and even some cranberry juice(which is great for your kidneys). \nAlso, you mentioned that you've found yourself going to the bathroom more often, that is because the caffeine in coke-cola is a diuretic, it will make you urinate more. However, it is not really hydrating you, you actually lose water.\n\nI hope this helps a bit, good luck!
