Red Pill me on "diet" products /fit.
A 2.5 Liter bottle of Cola Lite says on the nutritional value sticker that it has something like 3 calories in the whole thing. It claims to be sugar and carb free, but there must be something in there right?
What are they not listing on the nutritional value sticker so as to make people think this stuff is actually healthy?
Pic related, a sugar-free, carb-free maple syrup that my local fitness shop sells to be used on protein pancakes. No way this stuff is actually zero calories....

>but there must be something in there right?
Yes, but its things the human body can't extract energy from so it has no calories. Gasoline has like 30,000 calories a gallon or something in theory, but for the purpose of human consumption it is calorie free.
The same concept applies to water, colourings and artificial sweeteners found in diet drinks.
All calorie free things are just laden with artificial sweetener and other things that the body can't get energy from.
Some people will say sweeteners are dangerous, but theres no real evidence to support that (but its BIG PHARM covering it up amirite)
I love Walden farm shit. It really is calorie free, or sometimes like 10 calories per bottle, negligible. All products follow the formula sweetener (usually sucralose) flavor, thickener and color. Most of their products are shitty as hell, but the syrup is amazing.

so I could theoretically just down a 2.5 liter bottle of cola lite and it wouldn't be adding any fat? I'm a fatty aspiring to slim down and that would be fucking amazing if it's true.
The sticky doesn't like the idea of diet products though
Artificial sweetners have calories but are very strong in taste, so you only have to put a tiny amount in, thus resulting in very low calories

Yes you can.
I drink literally 6+ cans of diet coke a day.

Yes

Stop drinking soda you plebeian. Abstain for a while and you'll get over your addiction to sweet things.

Are you serious? I can drink gasoline all day and not gain a single pound?
