Diet cola is a carbonated soft drink, described here in its diet form. It consists mainly of water and provides very little energy, with only trace amounts of carbohydrate, sugars and protein. Per 100g, the supplied data list 2 kJ of energy, 0g of fat and 0.01g of salt. It provides no fibre.
The trace sugar content and low energy content are relevant when comparing drinks for sugar or energy intake. However, low sugar content does not mean a drink is free from acids, which can contribute to tooth enamel erosion. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
