I drank 20 diet cokes per day for over five years.
My CBC is normal, EKG's normal, MRA was normal, Xrays, normal. Everything was normal.
Don't get me wrong-I quit drinking this stuff. These reports are enough to scare anyone into doing so.
But I'm alive and well, too.
Every "Aspartame Guru" I've spoken with points to the Aspartic Acid content of the product as the major problem. The other darkhorse theory involves the citric acid found in it, and just about every other food in America. Not the good stuff (Natural citric acid -fruits), the bad stuff- citric acid produced from the Aspergillus Niger mold strain.
