You have to drink a great deal of diet pop to get the levels of these chemicals necessary to cause problems. MUCH, MUCH more than a regular person would ever encounter. Don't believe everything you read these days. There are a LOT of urban myths around about artificial sweeteners. Other things are a great deal more dangerous to the health and skin than art. sweeteners. Most notably, direct sunlight, smoking, car exhaust, alchohol, petrolium distillates, excess consumption of saturated fats, obesity, etc. Clean filtered water is always the beverage of choice healthwise, but diet soda is the least of your health worries.
