Drinking plenty of coffee doesn't cure this headache so it's not caffeine. It is something else and i think it's no good.

It is mainly down to Aspartame, which was banned for years until Ronald Rumsfeld had it pushed through when he was head of Sears.
It is systematic poisoning of the population. Diet Coke is actually probably more fattening than the fully sugar variety. When we let my son have Coke, I only let him have the full sugar variety.
Anything that induced massive secretion of insulin and that includes Caffeine and Aspartame is not only going to increase weight gain when it contains calories or not but is also going to greatly increase your risk of Diabetes.
There are also other chemicals in Coke that should be given a wide birth and all that is in addition to the effects that fizzy drinks in general can have on bone density and the like.
