and also, if you actually knew anything about it, people of our age get type 1, which isn't necessarily caused by things like that.

Who's trying to be offensive? My nan has diabeties, why would I try take the piss, I'm just saying, if he's putting that much sugar into his body everyday he may wanna stop, because when he has to inject himself everyday he'll regret drinking all of that sugary coke.

I like Cherry coke :D

Type 2 doesn't usually involve the insulin injections and can be controlled by a good diet and an active lifestyle. He drinks diet coke which contains no natural sugar, but more additives.

So he says at the last minute, and I'm not sure how it works, you either take injections to keep the insilin level low, or keep healthy and when the insilin is really low you have a chocolate bar or something to raise it up, I dunno I guess it isn't that bad but diet coke still has hidden sugars I guess

It's just artificial sweeteners which don't have the same effect. Type 2 usually occurs in older people due to too much sugar and they just need to test their blood sugar with the finger thing and check what they're eating accordingly. Sometimes the insulin may be needed in Type 2, but it's usually controlled by diet and exercise. I have a Science exam later today and cola and diabetes are part of the course. I hope it pays off.

I'm not sure if Diet Coke has the same effect, but if you drink too much, your muscles could seize up because I saw it on the news that someone who drinks just a bit more than you had major medical issues.

I drink a couple of glass fulls of diet coke per day. Been on the blackcurrent juice for the past week though..

Went to Asda yesterday and got a few of those 1 litre bottles of pepsi max. Works out about 33p per litre, quite cheap compared to £1.50 per 2 litre of Diet Coke.

Yeah.. the fizzy-ness of any drink isn't good for your teeth.. watch out. :)

You sound like my friend who is addicted to diet coke, not to this extreme though, he has withdrawl symptoms when he stops drinking it :P.

woahhhhhh addict! i thought i was but i guess not! dont die tho

if your that addicted to coke, than get off your computer, walk to the store, and get some.
