Just heard the news about Diet Coke. I drink about two cans a day and I feel devastated. Is it safe to switch to Coke Zero?

    The dose makes the poison. It is carcinogenic but current estimates are that you’d need to drink several litres a day to meaningfully increase your risk.

    There are other good reasons to find a healthier drink but this isn’t one of them. Most artificial sweeteners have some kind of risk attached so there is no point switching to a different diet soda.
