in Danger: High Fructose Corn Syrup on rise up Rochester
The carbonation (especially in non-fountain sodas) has time in the container to act on the fructose, creating about 5x the original amount of reactive carbonyls. My brother-in-law is at high risk for heart disease and diabetes and recently switched to diet soda and he has lost some weight so I hope he has chosen the lesser of evils. Aspartame is in the yogurt my mom eats every day. In this case, the sugar sweetened one would clearly be the best alternative; or better yet just add fruit and some concentrated OJ to plain yogurt.
