Aspartame: Sweetener used in Diet Coke possibly causes cancer, WHO set to declare - Lemmy.world

This should be big - and about time. Studies have known about this for 40 years, and it’s known in some circles that aspartame is quite bad for your health. Wonder what coke - and many other companies that use it - are going to do.

This is another point that no-one makes. While it is clear that the best alternative to a sweetened drink would be water, often it is the "healthier and natural" version with real sugar which is just incomparably more damaging to human bodies.
