Soda water, as a good drink, is loved by many people, but as a drink, many people do not know whether excessive consumption of soda will lead to obesity, in fact, drinking soda will be fat, those who drink diet soda than drink regular soda people are more likely to be overweight or obese, but scientists do not know why. So there are two camps: one, artificial sweeteners cause weight gain, and two, obese people are more likely to choose diet soda.

While we can't tell which view is correct, a new study from the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel suggests that artificial sweeteners may be harmful to our gut bacteria.

Researchers found that artificial sweeteners altered the gut bacteria's repertoire over time, leading to prolonged glucose intolerance. Such as obesity and diabetes - diseases that people drink soda to try to avoid.

There are about one hundred trillion bacteria in our intestines, and they help us digest our food. But they don't just help us digest food; emerging research suggests that these bacteria can prevent diseases such as obesity, diabetes, celiac disease, and Crohn's disease.

This is the key to treating and even preventing such diseases, so obese and diabetic people should avoid artificial sweeteners.
