Diet Soda and Headaches

[BigT]

@missred

You mentioned that you were drinking diet coke in the place of tea. Could it be that you aren’t ingesting as much caffeine with the soda as you usually do with the tea?

I know for most of us who partake of caffeine on a regular basis, reducing the quantity or quitting altogether will bring on withdrawal headaches.

Just my $.02.

Heck, depending on the tea, it could be the other way around, and was what I was going to suggest.

The one thing I learned (here on the Dope) is that it is almost certainly not the aspartame.
