How bad is only drinking soda? (lemmy.ml)

Been drinking exclusively (give or take) no-sugar caffeinated sodas since a child. Not obese or diabetic. Mid-thirties now. How bad is this?

To be honest, your responses read like someone who's already decided that it's not an issue. These studies definitely have flaws and limitations, I admitted that - But across the board, even those that take efforts to control for confounding factors like obesity and sugar in various ways, these issues are reported as above.

These are the facts as we know them. Do with it as you like, it's your life, but I would definitely argue the data at least means it'll likely cause issues and likely already has. Don't randomly accuse me of not reading because we disagree on interpretations.
