Reply to comment by antiquemule in ELI5 How is drinking a diet soda different than drinking plain water when it comes to your health? by LucyLegBeard

This is true of any caffeinated beverage really.

It is, but people who drink 4 or more cups of coffee a day aren't less dehydrated than people who don't drink that much.
