Answers:
Though there is some evidence that suggests some artificial sweeteners have caused cancer in rats (not humans), No credible study shows today's sweeteners to cause cancer!. I would state consumption of diet soda is 100% safe (Im a Doctor just to let you know) Www@FoodAQ@Com

Diet soda is not a diet product, but a chemically altered, multiple sodium (salt) and Aspartame-containing product that actually makes you crave for carbohydrates and gain weight!. These products also contain formaldehyde, which stores in the fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs; no wonder the American population is turning obese and/or suffering from cancers and diabetes [From FAT to Fit, Dr!. Leo Rebello, (www!.healthwisdom!.org) ]!.

Formaldehyde is an absolute toxin and is used mainly to preserve ‘tissue specimens’ in laboratories!. Formaldehyde poisoning symptoms include local irritation of eyes, nose, mouth, throat, respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts, and central nervous system causing vertigo, stupor, convulsions, unconsciousness, renal damage!.

No, they're not safe to drink!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well personally no diet drinks are not ok to drink because it does cause several different things here is a link to some of the side effects http://www!.sweetpoison!.com/aspartame-sid!.!.!. but there isn't really any SPECIFIC amount of aspartame that causes cancer because I know I drink it sometimes but just avoid it as much as possible!!

Lets say you were to drink 3 one liter bottles everyday for the rest of your life!. Then you are at GREAT risk of getting cancer!. People say that diet drinks will help to weight lost!. I don't believe this!.

If you drink one or two small cans a day> I'm sure it won't give you cancer!.

*Water is the answer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

In biology class today i actually learned about this but Diet soda is actually worse for the body then regular soda!. They are both still bad to drink thought they eat through layers of your stomach!. But we all die sooner or later so drink up!Www@FoodAQ@Com
