Experts warn even sugar-free sodas are linked to weight gain, dementia and stroke

Drinking diet soda is just as bad for you as having a regular soda, a new report has claimed.

Even sugar-free drinks are raising the risk of weight gain, type 2 diabetes, dementia and stroke among US adults, the panel of doctors and researchers has warned.

They said that children are at an even greater risk of disease because consuming diet drinks at such a young age can create behaviors that follow them throughout their lives.

With obesity rates continuing to balloon in the US - and diabetes, heart disease and certain cancers following these trends - the experts say it is vital now more than ever to lay down the diet sodas to help curb the growing epidemic.

The thing here is why do "experts" , FDA, etc. turn this loose on us and fifty years later say don't dare use this product.
I had a prescribed medicine discontinued last week that could cause cancer. The FDA pulled it. Aren't they the one's that approved it or am I just a dummy?
