I’m not disputing that regularly drinking sugared soda is bad for you. I’m asking whether drinking diet soda in the same amounts in it place is shown to be any better for you. And some studies say its not. For Vox to treat the cancer studies and other studies regarding diabetes etc. as the same is misleading. In the first case, there is compelling evidence that something is not a danger, and in the second case there is no compelling evidence that there is a danger. Those are very different since the latter is consistent with saying that there is no compelling evidence that it is not a danger—that is, the jury’s still out.
