the old diet coke question...

[tsweety81]

Ok i know this prob bn askd a zillion times.i was just wonderng if its ok to drink diet coke i know the whole citrus thing but i know that the exante bars have citrus in and are part of a vlcd so wud it b ok to have diet coke which prob only contains a small amount of citric acid.

Citric acid affects some people and knocks them put of ketosis. You may be fine. Alternatively you could have coke zero or dr pepper zero which don't cotain any citric acid.

as said above. I know that coke zero is really hard to find in bars and restaurants though. It depends on you and the only way to find out is to try it (or not risk it!)

there are lots of other types of coke that are ok (such as supermarket own brand ones) asda do a nice own brand coke zero.
when it comes to being out, perhaps you could risk it if it makes your time our more enjoyable? I like to drink soda water -mixed with water flavourings is nice too
