[Sodas — even diet ones — may be linked with increased risk factors for heart disease and diabetes, researchers said on Monday.

They found adults who drink one or more sodas a day — diet or regular — had about a 50 percent higher risk of metabolic syndrome — a cluster of risk factors such as excessive fat around the waist, low levels of “good” cholesterol, high blood pressure and other symptoms.

It's amazing how soon or a later they find something wrong with everything you eat.

I'm NOT giving up my diet Dr. Peppers!!! Gosh it does seem that everything we consume is bad for you in some form or another!:(
