WHO says soda sweetener aspartame may cause cancer, but it's safe within limits - Lemmy.film

Nine to fourteen cans of cola a day is the limit. Eek, I’ve probably done that when I was a young programmer! Hope it doesn’t catch up to me. :(

The WHO said aspartame is safe to consume within a daily limit of 40 milligrams per kilogram of a person’s body weight. An adult weighing 70 kilograms or 154 pounds would have to drink more than nine to 14 cans of aspartame-containing soda daily to exceed the limit and potentially face health risks.

Holy shit you weren’t kidding. And here I was worried that my 2-3 cans a month might be catching up to me!

I drink about a can per day and I was so worried. lol
Maybe if you are very, very, very little.
