I have always distrusted that stuff. You can taste it is bad. That simple. No diet soda's in this house (and not a lot of soda anyway).Join MURCs Distributed Computing effort for Rosetta@Home and help fight Alzheimers, Cancer, Mad Cow disease and rising oil prices.

I stopped drinking any form of pop years ago, and I haven't missed it since.

I may drink, perhaps, 3 or 4 cans of pop/year but I never drink the diet versions.
There are scares that ALL sweeteners, including sucrose and dextrose, are bad for you. So what? We all have to die sometime.Brian (the devil incarnate)

Not much of a soda drinker here, and I might drink one ot two cans of the diet stuff a year.

The headache is probably the caffeine withdrawal. My wife used to
drink diet coke (now she drinks caffeine free diet coke). And she
had headaches when she switched for a little while. Now, if she has
a coke at a restaurant (she drinks diet at home but can't stand it from
the fountain in the restaurants) she gets a caffeine buzz (heart races,
buzzy feeling, etc.).
Just my US$0.02 (not that it's worth much
)

Don't think so, caffeine withdrawal is never a problem for me. I'll have 2 or 3 1/2 liter cops of coffee at work, weekend comes in and I'm coffee free until Monday again.... .
It has something to do with the artificial sweetener.
