Aspartame may be the reason that diet soda consumption during pregnancy has been linked to premature birth. Folks may also be interested in yesterday's NutritionFacts.org video-of-the-day Aspartame-Induced Fibromyalgia (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/aspartame-induced-fibromyalgia/). Regular soda may not be a good idea either. High fructose corn syrup may contain mercury (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/mercury-in-corn-syrup/) and it's no good for our kids either (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/diet-hyperactivity/). See Food Industry Funding Effect (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-industry-funding-effect/) for a discussion of how studies funded by soft drink corporations may be biased. I've got 32 other videos on pregnancy (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/pregnancy/) and hundreds of videos on a thousand other topics (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/).

Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/video/diet-soda-and-preterm-birth/ and he'll try to answer it!
