Deadly Soda...?
As you should all know, I drink Diet Pepsi. I love it. LOVE IT.
But is it healthy?
Health concernsMain article: Aspartame controversyDiet Pepsi contains the artificial sweetener aspartame, which has been linked to cancer[1] in laboratory rats. Aspartame has also been shown to cause brain tumors, brain lesions, and lymphoma[2]. One of the chemicals produced by aspartame after ingestion is methanol, which is also found in antifreeze[3][4].
