Original Note:
Aspartame in diet soda is one of the most thoroughly studied food additives, with over 100 studies evaluating its safety. You would have to drink ~19 sodas a day to exceed the FDA Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI). No credible evidence linking cancer in humans. https://www.factcheck.org/2023/10/no-proven-health-risks-from-aspartame-but-also-no-proven-benefits/ https://www.fda.gov/food/food-additives-petitions/aspartame-and-other-sweeteners-food https://www.cancer.org/cancer/risk-prevention/chemicals/aspartame.html https://www.efsa.europa.eu/sites/default/files/corporate_publications/files/factsheetaspartame.pdf https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/nutrition/taste-science-aspartame https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/medical-health-and-nutrition-you-asked/aspartame-possible-carcinogen https://www.preventatl.com/aspartame/
