Aspartame is safe in limited amounts, say experts after cancer warning

So maybe the huge worry people had after the news that WHO would classify it as cancerous was a little too much. I think the media could have reported on it in a bit more responsible way.

Who tf is drinking more than 14 cans of anything in a day. That's way too much liquid. My guts would be sloshing around all day if I did that. I love soda and I drink like 1 every few days. Can't give it up but at least I don't drink crazy amount of it.

Idk, I drink like 3L of liquid a day, especially during the summer. Doesn’t seem that infeasible.

I mean it's almost 5L. Maybe I don't drink enough but seems like a ton. Usually have 1.5-2L of water, 2 espresso and maybe a can of soda/carbonated water.

When you say liquid, do you mean water or something else?

gasoline, cerebrospinal fluid, dawn, you name it

What is dawn? Google isn't getting me anywhere. I want to fully appreciate your concoction.

A mix between water, cold-press/fresh juices, tea and soda. Whatever I feel like at the time.

oh ok, that sounds reasonable. I was wondering if you were on some kind of special diet that involved 3l of one thing.
