Diet : Drink Diet Drinks… and Gain Weight!

During the past two decades, the number of people who use artificial, no-calorie
sweeteners has more than doubled. At the same time, the prevalence of people who are
overweight and obese has also increased dramatically.
Here's even more evidence that diet drinks can make you fat:
The International Journal of Obesity published a study showing that when a group of rats
drank an artificially sweetened liquid, they consumed three times more calories than
another group of rats that did not get the sweetened liquid. Both groups had the same
access to food.
