*Sodas with artificial sweetener have been known to increase cravings for sugar and stimulate overall appetite. As a rule I would NOT make them a part of your low carb diet.  I had a massive headache this evening and I broke down and picked one up while I was in the grocery store.  Once in a while is okay, but if you are a one a day drinker diet soda drinker it might be good to cut back.  Also, caffeine stimulates the appetite and acts as a diuretic which means that you could be losing precious nutrients that your body really needs.  Caffeine is not allowed during induction and during maintenance it should be limited as much as possible.
