should I remind people of the studies showing saccharin and cancer in rats?

I just read an article about that, but I need to go to work so I cant post it. Needless to say that study was the equivilant of a human consuming thousands of times more arty sweetner on a daily basis then they already do.

yep, that is correct. It did take large quantities. I'm just showing that drinking chemicals is not the same as drinking water. Drinking water will always be healthier.

Drinking too much water will be bad for you, too.

Saccharin has been shown to be fine for human consumption. That's why they removed the warning label off of it back in the 90s.

The same knee-jerk activists who went after saccharin are the ones claiming Splenda is bad for you, despite a complete lack of empiric evidence and that FDA studies showed it had no ill effects on people. But these nuts will attack anything that isn't organic and "natural."

only a moron would drink too much water. You drink when you are thirsty, and you'll be fine.
