It's probably better for your teeth, and, if you're drinking caffeinated soda in large volumes, that's not great. So: the sense in which it's better for health is pretty measurable.


Even if you replace water entirely with diet coke, the caffeine is not enough to cause harm.

So is not eating or sleeping or breathing.


This seems conspicuously like measurement, so I think we agree.


Most soda (not energy drinks) has very little caffeine. 12oz Diet coke has 42mg, black tea is 50mg, coffee varies but I see at least 100mg.

Of course people do seem to drink it mass quantities.
