Right. But if I have to choose between diet and normal coke, which one is objectively worse for my health now?

If your goal is to lose weight, it seems like diet coke is the better choice short-term (because it has much less calories) and normal coke the better choice long-term (because according to studies, NSS don't help long term and to reduce their other long-term effects).

So I guess if you drink a coke once in a while, diet coke is better and if you drink coke very often, you should stop drinking coke.

no one has to make that choice
