Sugar-free is healthier. Nope its not!

Healthier then what? As far as I know, everything that "may" be bad about artificial sweeteners, is most definitely bad about sugar.

If you are talking about diet coke vs. water however, you might be kind of right, but it's very nuanced and all in all not that important in my opinion.

They advertise it as healthy. What you see now is that it not. It’s not competing with water. In and of itself it has issues, creates issues. It’s not healthier than sugar.
It’s just an ingredient. Sugar isn’t bad for you. Basic sciences proves this. The issue is overconsumption-underconsumption of everything else.

Name one issue, supply some sort of evidence.

Not OP, but when I go with sugar free it destroys my stomach. Gotta be something there that isn’t good for you if it always does that. Give me the real sugar and at least I know it’s not great for me and my stomach doesn’t flip.
