I drink lotsa diet drinks. In fact, I would say that I can count on one hand the number of regular, sugar sodas I have drunk in the last year. But my consumption of sugar substitutes, through diet drinks and sweetener for my coffee, is generous and, for me, guilt-free. Guiltless because I can trust the FDA in this case, approving these foods to be consumed. While there will probably be some surprise down the road when I am aged and stiff in the joints that something once though innocuous, like the type of fabric softener I use, will cause me to die of cancer, I am choosing to believe that most protective agencies like the FDA are striving for the greater good--and not overly influenced by economics or power.
All that to say...I've included a link below that should assuage any of your fears about Diet Coke, Diet Pepsi, or any of the other sweeteners, being linked to cancer. I'll continue to guiltlessly chug my daily aspartame flavored drinks...
