Is diet Coke healthy?
Usual conversation between my patients & me in OPD
Many of my patients tell me: "Sir, I drink diet Coke, as it is good for health"
When I ask them why is it good for health? Their answer is: "It does not have sugar and has zero calories."
Then I tell them, they can might as well drink plain water, which also has zero calories.
Diet Coke contains: Water, aspartame, acesulfame, caffeine, and sodium.
It does not have any protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamin or minerals.
My take is:
If you are thirsty, drink plain water.
If you need caffeine, go for coffee.
Aspartame and acesulfame- I am yet to see any research showing that they are good for health. However, there are a few studies showing exactly the opposite- that they are not good for health.
The Diet Coke package also mentions- "Not recommended for children, pregnant and lactating mothers."
If diet Coke is nutritious and healthy, then, why is it not recommended for those for whom nutrition is a priority (children, pregnant and lactating mothers)?
Am I missing something? Please share your comments/feedback.
In this month, be different:
✅Buy butter while they buy margarine.
✅Buy yams while they buy bread.
✅Buy olive oil while they buy seed oils.
✅Buy water while they buy juices.
✅Sleep while they go to bed late.
✅Hit the gym while they give excuses.
And you won't be sick like them.
We need to talk about this
☠️Azithromycin and Amoxyclav for every run-of-the-mill viral sore throat
☠️Cefuroxime for every viral cold and cough
☠️Upgrading to Meropenam from Ceftrixone when a single fever spike persists in the wards
☠️Upgrading to Colistin with a single fever spike on Meropenam in the ICU
☠️Starting Ceftazidime and avibactam when patient enters the ICU
☠️Not stopping previous antibiotics but adding on more antibiotics in the ward and ICUs like a domino effect
☠️Not de-esclating or stopping antibiotics on time when body fluid cultures come back sterile
☠️Over-the-counter antibiotic sales without prescriptions
💀Alternative medicine practitioners prescribing antibiotics and antifungals without a clue, when Ayurveda or Homeopathy never had a germ theory
☠️People taking antibiotics unnecessarily and for the wrong indications AND stopping after 2 or 3 pills, that too taken erratically
☠️Irrational and illogical antibiotic use domesticated/ farmed-for-food animals and in veterinary practice
☠️Medical representatives asking doctors to prescribe a new antibiotic because it is better than the rest and more "powerful" without knowing recommendations for use - and ill-informed doctors learning medicine from medical representatives on antibiotics use.
🚨This depressing list is endless🚨
This is a complete human-made disaster that needs reflection from every treating doctor to follow what is necessary to reverse the damage done and to prevent irreversible damage in patients who will one day require life-saving antibiotics.
Patients with liver disease and cancer will be the worst hit because of this foolish and irrational antibiotic use. Brace yourselves.
"Good touch and bad touch" workshop should be conducted in each & every school.
Hats off to this teacher for performing this activity with the students in the most effective way.

Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased.
Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken.
But it is inscribed on a heart and there it shall remain forever.
