People who consumed at least one sugar‑sweetened beverage per day had more than twice the risk of developing gastric cancer compared with those who rarely drank them.

They did say "previously labelled as a possible carcinogen" which can probably be said about most foods. It seems like aspartame is pretty low risk.

Although low calorie soda are still carbonated and acidic so it's going to eat away at your teeth.

    Which can probably be said about most processed or highly processed foods

    Don't want to nitpick, but don't want the argument that broccoli will give you horrific ass cancer to gain any momentum.
