Default Soft drinks and cancer !

What do you think about the posibility to develop cancer because of soft drinks ?

The latest tests revealed levels of benzene ( an aggressive carcinogen and may lead to leukaemia and other cancers of the blood ) up to eight parts per billion in some soft drinks.

I've not heard of this before. But seems like EVERYTHING causes cancer.

Did you know that drinking local tap water could cause cancer too? That is if you live along the Colorado River. Apparently some industrial complex threw chemicals in the river (including chlorates compound) and so they are advising local children in the farming communities along Colorado River not to drink the tap water.

There will probably be a study out tomorrow that says it reduces cholesterol.

Everything, including breathing, causes cancer. Just avoid soft drinks if it worries you.

Just avoid them all together. There's absolutely no benefit to having a soda

If not cancer then you'll surely get a round of diabetes. I work in a small hospital in Colorado and we get 15-30 diabetes checks / day( it's a monthly test ). Ninety percent of them are self-inflicted diabetics too, insulin resistant.

There is such a high level of development in my city( in Colorado ) that the aquifers are nearing their bottoms. The bottom of the aquifers possess the least desirable water as it has higher concentrations of minerals and a pH that is less than potable. [img]/forum/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I hope no one implicates Green Tea in causing cancer--I'll be in big trouble!
