Artificially sweetened, with zero-calorie beverages
Ice-teas and sodas that are somehow devoid of calories contain chemicals, artificial coloring, and artificial sweeteners. Coke Zero, for example, has zero nutritional values. In order to sweeten this beverage without adding calories, artificial sweeteners are used, and the health effects are controversial, and there is a growing concern.
For the moment, the research is still inconsistent, as many studies are testing if artificial sweeteners can contribute to the development of obesity and metabolic syndrome. Coke Zero uses many common artificial sweeteners, including aspartame and acesulfame potassium (Ace-K). The remaining ingredients are carbonated water, caramel color, food additives, and natural flavors.
