Dirty, Dirty Diet Soda
Why that you need to toss that nasty shit
Like you and me, diet soda has a dirty secret. While your scandals tend to fall more into categories like My Shoes are Really From Target, diet soda’s is something far more filthy. Sure, it can up your energy levels and its calorie count is pretty to look at, but it’s pretty much poison in a can – and you’re better than that, cupcake.
Diet soda contains an artificial sweetener known as aspartame, which is broken down into phenylalanine, aspartic acid and methanol (P.S. When ingested, methanol converts to formaldehyde in the body – an embalming fluid and dangerous neurotoxin. Sick.)
For those who are eyeing the low-calorie intake, emerging research has shown artificial sweeteners actually confuse our taste buds and set the human body up for cravings.
