Can diet soda cause insomnia?
It is possible, but whether diet soda brings on insomnia is specific to you. There is surprisingly little research on this exact connection, and diet soda affects insomnia in some people and not in others. The only reliable way to know your own answer is to track diet soda and insomnia together for two to three weeks and look for the pattern in your own data.
Why there's no one-size answer
What shapes how you feel has obviously not been studied, but more important, many combinations of things have simply not risen to the level of attention in scholarly research that is needed to say with certainty how they are related. Bodies differ. Diet soda might affect insomnia for another person and do nothing to you. The only data that settles it is your own.
