    Pop contains a large amount of sugar. One can of pop provides your body with more than enough sugar for one day. All that sugar increases your risk of diabetes, heart disease, indigestion, and skin problems. Also, all the sugar in soda ruins your teeth and can cause cavities! Diet pop contains artificial sweeteners like Aspartame, Acesulfame-K, and Saccharin. Aspartame is 200 times sweeter than sugar. Aspartame can cause migraines, memory loss, emotional disorders, blurred vision, ringing in the ears, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath. Luckily there are only small amouts of Asparatame in pop, but it's still not healthy to consume in small amounts. Acesulfame-K is 100-200 times sweeter than sugar. Lab tests have been done on Acesulfame-K and the animals it was used on showed rapid increase in cancerous tumors. Saccharin is 300 times sweeter than sugar! It has been proven to cause bladder cancer and is even banned in Canada, New Zealand, and several European countries. Saccharin is found in Diet Coke, Diet Pepsi, and Diet Sarsi.

    Do you mean soda? Soda doesn't cause any kind of cancer. If anything, it will make you fat. There is so much sugar in it and even the diet sodas are not good for you. They won't cause cancer either, but it's the artificial sugar they use that can actually slow metabolism and cause a weight gain; Read that from a book a doctor from Boston Medical wrote. I was surprised because my husband drinks diet soda. I hate all sodas so I don't drink any of them. So there you have it. Will NOT cause cancer. Blessings

    What dont they say cant lead to cancer? The 3 most natural things in the world, air, water, and sun, have all been linked to certain cancers.

    The truth is that we still in the very early stages of really understand many types of cancers. And now and then they try to link excess use to certain cancers. Most things in moderation will not increase your risk much at all.

    Drinking a lot of soda is much more likely to lead to obesity and diabtes and then cancer.
