I drink a huge amount of softdrink. I'll often have 4 500ml cans of diet V or red bull plus 2L of coke zero in a day.... not sure what's going to happen.
Stomach lining would be the least of your worries when it comes to drinking too much soft drink. It deals with stomach acid many times more acidic than diet soft drinks.
Teeth and brittle bones is what I would worry about.
One can would probably be OK, but I really hate diet soft drink tastes like some sort of chemical cocktail, so I never have them.
If anything I will occasionally have a can of real coke, much better for you than diet soft drink and only 160 calories, but would not have one daily, may be one or two a week, apart from that just drink water, milk and tea, and may be 2-4 coffees a week.
Yeah sure Bazza, whatever you say.
Google the effects of coke (etc) on the stomach.
A common criticism of Coke based on its allegedly toxic acidity levels has been found to be baseless by researchers; lawsuits based on these notions have been dismissed by several American courts for this reason. Although numerous court cases have been filed against The Coca-Cola Company since the 1920s, alleging that the acidity of the drink is dangerous, no evidence corroborating this claim has been found. Under normal conditions, scientific evidence indicates Coca-Cola's acidity causes no immediate harm.[114]
The rest of the claims offered here are specious. Coca-Cola does contain small amounts of citric acid and phosphoric acid; however, all the insinuations about the dangers these acids might pose to people who drink Coca-Cola ignore a simple concept familiar to any first-year chemistry student: concentration. Coca-Cola contains less citric acid than does orange juice, and the concentration of phosphoric acid in Coke is far too small (a mere 11 to 13 grams per gallon of syrup, or about 0.20 to 0.30 per cent of the total formula) to dissolve a steak, a tooth, or a nail overnight. (Much of the item will dissolve eventually, but after a day or two you'll still have most of the tooth, a whole nail, and one very soggy T-bone.)
Besides, the gastric acid in your stomach is much stronger than any of the acids in Coca-Cola, so the Coca-Cola is harmless.
Says me, as it has less chemicals, and it has real sugar instead of sweeteners that may cause a slight laxative affect and what ever other health issues.

At the end of the day I don't think I am any worse off for not drinking diet soft drinks, no matter which way you look at it.
Wow insane, do you have a PWO stim aswell?
I worry that just one 600ml of these drinks, one coffee, plus my Craze PWO per day is doing me harm.....
Well I can copy and paste articles to the contrary.
Wanna play????
I dont drink huge amounts of energy drinks for a work out stimulant, I just like the caffeine rush. They also help me concentrate if I'm writing something work related.
I would cut down if I were you, you don't need a PWO stim to get maximum results. It sounds as though it's causing you unease based on how you feel.
I know nothing about adverse health affects. I'm sure there are some though - perhaps not yet verified by studies.

I used to drink heaps of pepsi max or diet coke. Like...lots lol
Do you use protein powder. They pretty much all use artificial sweeteners.
I'm kinda suprised that no-one has mentioned aspartame yet...
