      Yes and diet soda isn’t a perfect alternative. We’re still learning about the long term effects of artificial sweeteners. It’s a headache trying to navigate the options.

      There are seltzer waters that have caffeine. I would guess those are comparable to black coffee in terms of healthiness.
