One can of Cola Zero a day or other sugar-free "diet" drinks = a 38% higher risk of Type 2 diabetes, according to a massive 14-year study.
That's worse than the 23% bump from regular sugary soda.
And no, it's not just about weight - researchers adjusted for everything from diet to exercise.

SMOKED YOUR WAY TO DIABETES? WEED USERS FACE 4X HIGHER RISK
A massive new study of 4 million people just linked cannabis use to a nearly fourfold increase in diabetes risk. Yes - four times.

Researchers say the combo of poor eating habits, insulin resistance, and regular cannabis use could be a metabolic disaster.
As weed becomes more legal and casual use increases, doctors are warning: you might be trading chill vibes for chronic illness.
