So, it should have been able to be determined whether the risk was related to the sugar in the sodas, or to soemthing else in the soda. I drink over a liter of Diet soda daily, and have done so for years - do they see an increase in diet soda drinkers? I'm still waiting for an argument against diet soda, other than the idea that flavored beverage stimulate appetite.
