A new study funded by the Walter Reed Department of Clinical Investigation has found that consumption of diet soft drinks causes significantly more excretion of calcium and phosphorus than drinking water over the two-day study period. This was a small study but it sheds some light on the causative factors for previous cross-sectional studies that have shown a relationship between decreased bone mass and consumption of cola beverages. This effect is probably more significant in people who drink diet colas as they have been shown to consume more of the beverage than people who drink sugar colas.
