You don’t trust the FDA after you’ve read that they conclude that aspartame is safe, which is in line with over 100 other countries’ regulatory agencies?
Wait until you read what the FDA has to say about water.
I don’t trust them because they rejected aspartame in the 70s and it was only approved by Reagan in the early 80s because he had an executive from the manufacturer in his entourage. That’s shady crony-capitalist bullshit. Downvote me all you want.
I’ve read some of the studies and talked about them with some nurses who’ve done the same. The harm is due to the quantity you consume. The study’s found it cancerous after giving it to mice in high doses, like dozens of 2 liters of diet soda each day. Most people who drink a few cans are going to be fine.
We’ll have to see what the new report says and some people might have to adjust the amount they drink it but I doubt it will say any amount is cancerous.
Dammit… I’ve been drinking that shit every day for years. I actually crave the flavor of it.

The FDA says 75 packets of aspartame a day is the acceptable daily level. That would be insane.
Well, I didn’t much before reading the article, but after reading it I don’t trust the FDA at all.
Willful ignorance is the worst kind

Hey! One other person that also read the article! Nice to meet you!
You too! lol Apparently we’re the only two! XD
It’s fine. Aspartame causes cancer in rats at extremely high rates of ingestion. You would need to drink 100s of Diet Cokes a day.
