Sodium Benzoate is found in some diet sodas. Studies have now found that sodium benzoate can cause sclerosis of the liver.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm watching what I'm drinking....

Sorry, DevilLord, I had to steal your thunder. =p =]

we can't drink diet soda, we cant use aspartame sweetener, we can't eat some chips because of some addictive seasoning they put on there, soda in general is too sugary, fruit drinks are too sugary unless they're all "natural" or whatever, and all sorts of other shit. I don't care.

Check you labels- many diet drinks use potassium benzoate instead of sodium benzoate.

Sodium Benzoate is a very common preservative.

I'm fairly certain that any benzoate salt would have the same effect as the poisonous property of the chemical is the benzoate anion that can get converted into benzene (a horrible carcinogen) in the liver.

But, living in a city is far worse for your health than drinking a can of diet coke every day. Much, much worse. Let's put this into perspective.
