[net.med] Question about carbonation

geopi@hou2h.UUCP (G.COTSONAS) (08/29/85)

I am interested in finding out whether CO2 in carbonated beverages
is metabolized.  Can it contribute to (considerable) weight gain?
I know non-diet soda is nothing but sugars, but I am interested in
the carbon dioxide here.
