The sweetener aspartame, which is found in a variety of foods and fizzy drinks, is set to be officially classified as "possibly carcinogenic" to humans, reports claim.
The label frequently causes confusion as it gives no sense of whether the potential risk is big or miniscule.
Other "possibly carcinogenic" substances include aloe vera, diesel and pickled Asian vegetables.
The BBC understands the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) will make an announcement on 14 July.

Better late than never! I have been avoiding all varieties of artificial sweeteners and MSG with its myriad of names, for over 50 years - as long as I've been reading labels. There is a long list of medical conditions Holistic physicians say they contribute to causing. Of course there are many other ingredients to avoid too.
I wonder what other folks make sure to avoid as a way to be healthy . . .
