Amanda Sauceda, a lecturer in nutrition and dietetics in the Department of Family and Consumer Sciences at Cal State Long Beach, spoke with Verywell Health about whether diet soda or probiotic soda affects blood sugar levels. She explained that diet soda does not impact blood sugar and noted that probiotic sodas have only a minimal effect on blood sugar when they are sweetened with artificial sweeteners, similar to diet drinks.
