Does diet soda have more flavor than regular soda?
Flavor is based upon personal opinion. In my opinion, Regular soda has much better flavor. But, if you are considering a switch to diet soda, consider this. Most diet soda has aspartame. And, aspartame has been the subject of several controversies since its initial approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1974. Critics allege that conflicts of interest marred the FDA's approval of aspartame, question the quality of the initial research supporting its safety,and postulate that numerous health risks may be associated with aspartame. And there have been studies that say that aluminum cans react with the aspartame to make is even more dangerous. Causing cancer and a whole assortment of mental illnesses.

Is diet Pepsi good for people?
: I have recently read an article on both Diet Pepsi and aspartame. The article stated that "aspartame has been found to be safe for human consumption by more than ninety countries worldwide". This is proved by the FDA AND PBOI. Apartame however shoould NOT be consumed if you have heart promblems or have any family history of heart promblems. AlsoI read this in the article "In 1999, FDA scientists described the safety of aspartame as "clear cut" and stated that the product is "one of the most thoroughly tested and studied food additives the agency has ever approved." So there for I will keep drinking my Diet Pepsi products and not worry about if it is good for me or not. I have just looked at the FDA website and searched Aspartame and this is waht it said "However, certain people with the genetic disease phenylketonuria (PKU), and pregnant women with hyperphenylalanine (high levels of phenylalanine in blood) have a problem with aspartame because they do not effectively metabolize the amino acid phenylalanine, one of aspartame's components. High levels of this amino acid in body fluids can cause brain damage. Therefore, FDA has ruled that all products containing aspartame must include a warning to phenylketonurics that the sweetener contains phenylalanine." You can let this decide for you whether or not to drink Diet Pepsi.

Why is aspartame important?
Why not? it tastes sweet and isn't bad for teeth and wont make people with diabetes go Hyperglycaemic. If you are referring to the aspartame controversy which I am sure you are, Aspartame hasn't been proved to cause cancer in humans. while studies did find that there were increased cancer rates in rats fed aspartame, this doesn't mean It will cause cancer in humans. Dogs find chocolate poisonous, but humans eat chocolate in copious amounts without incident. so while aspartame may prove fatal to rats, humans can continue to enjoy the foul taste of the worlds most popular artificial sweeter.

Although eating Aspartame may trigger headache or Migraine in susceptible individuals, it isn't known to *cause* headache on its own.
