Diet Coke is a soft drink manufactured by various distributors based on a concentrated syrup manufactured by the Atlanta, GA company The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO); Soft drinks are so named because they do not contain 'Hard Liquor', and are generally non-alcoholic.
Diet Coke is the counterpart to the Coca-Cola Company's flagship cola product, Coca-Cola (now called Coca-Cola Classic after an unpopular attempt to release an improved flavor known as 'New Coke' in the late 1980s), originally invented by pharmacist John Stith Pemberton in 1886.
Diet Coke is so named because it is an artificially sweetened, low calorie beverage, on average containing less than one calorie per 8 fl. oz. serving. It generally follows a somewhat different formula and taste pattern than Coca-Cola classic; it is regarded internally to be a different flavor.
Coke Zero is another such product of The Coca-Cola Company, purported to taste more like Coca-Cola Classic than Diet Coke does; like Diet Coke, Coke Zero employs artificial sweeteners to drop the average calorie count to less than one per 8 fl. oz.
Since this is in Dental Health: Diet Coke, like many cola beverages, contains several substances known to have a detrimental impact on dental health, such as citric acid, phosphoric acid, and caramel coloring, although this is not a complete list.
In General health terms, most carbonated soft drinks are noted for their high sodium content, and for generally having few health benefits. In 2007, The Coca-Cola Company introduced Diet Coke Plus, which contains additional nutrients such as Niacin, B6, B12, Zinc and Magnesium; nevertheless, the United States Food and Drug Administration cautions that carbonated soft drinks are considered "Snack Foods," and should not be considered diet supplements.
