“Soda drinkers are much more likely than non-soda drinkers to develop weight gain, obesity, diabetes and other health problems.”

That’s correlation. Prove causation. Maybe fat, lazy people are simply more likely to like soda.

“People who swim in the ocean more than twice a year are more likely to develop cancer than people who don’t.”

Hmmm - what’s the real cause? The ocean or exposure to the sun?

I’m not saying soda feels like the best drink you can imbibe, but this is junk science, all around.

When a kid, I quaffed Coke, Pepsi, and similar sodas like they were going out of style, and had trouble gaining an ounce. Now they are occasional treats for me, and I am fighting the battle of the bulge. Go figure, there ain’t no justice in this calorie counting world.

Give a small group of hygiene challenged, drug loving Marxists, a fax machine, and you have the media drooling over anything they have to say.

The media have been taking this communist bait for as long as I can remember and talking it up like these stained underwear vermin were actual scientists.

CSPI=Communist, Socialist, Progressive, Idiots.

I remember a study that showed sugar causing cancer. As does chlorine in water.

The death rate is 100%. (minus 1)

If you eat 4 times your own body weight daily in this food coloring, you have a 2% increased chance of some rare cancer... As proven in lab rats...
