Of course there are already seevral toxic synthetics in coke so it doesn't really matter.

Type 1 diabetic here. I saw that when I was checking out Splenda, not too sure about that site though... http://www.mercola.com/2001/jun/23/chlorine.htm , the DANGERS of chlorine!!11! splenda has chlorine in the molocule, and chlorine is poisonous! But if there were really an issue with chlorine buildup, it'd be easier to lower it by removing salt NaCl and they don't mention common table salt at all. Looks to be another "OMGWTFBBQ! break out the TFH" kinda pages to me. i do agree with the environental imapct of leaked chlorine, though.Mastershakes said:Just because she don't cause cancer, doesn't mean she's good 4 ya.

Stick to a diet with no artificial or refined sugars, you'll be fine.
