Although many diet drinks make you feel good about yourself when you see the nonexistent amount of sugar in them, studies show that they really aren’t that healthy. In fact, they could be causing some risk to your health.

A 2008 study in the journal Circulation followed close to 10,000 people for nine years who were drinking artificially sweetened beverages.

And they had a 34 percent greater risk of developing metabolic syndrome (raises risk of heart disease and other health problems).
