  • Daniel, it might be the phosphate. I have been buying Zevia diet colas at Whole Foods. They don't have the phosphates in them. Stevia is used as an artificial sweetner.

  • Tracey, if it is the caramel coloring, why wouldn't the researchers see the same effect with regular colas? I think they do need to isolate the different artificial sweetners. This is the only research that makes a lot of sense. Aspertame as an excitotoxin, can destroy brain cells.

  • I don't think Jade was too sensitive. Her husband needs to choose between her and his friends. It doesn't sound like his friends are quality people. Where did integrity go? I'm talking about her husband's friends. Laura is a doctor and a counselor. Her caller deserved more sensitivity from her.
