I've recently given up soda cold-turkey.  I haven't drunk anything but
diet soda in years, but even at that I gave it up.  Partly due to a
discussion on another list, and partly just to see what would happen.

One effect  of not drinking diet soda has been that I have, now, almost
*no* heartburn.  Ever.  Used to be that, after a spaghetti dinner with
red sauce (common in my house) I'd end up awake at 2:00am in
excrutiating pain.  Now, nothing.  I also tend not to snore as much for
some reason.

I can't tell you that I feel more energized, but I can say that what
energy I do have tends to last much longer.

I won't say this will work for everyone, but it's worth a shot.  All
you're going to lose is soda....
