You just have to make your own decision, but you should make your own informed decision and also acknowledge there's no such thing as perfection. So, for example, you were talking earlier about microplastics in red meat, like in ground beef. Does that mean I'm not going to eat red meat? No. Like I'll have the ground beef. Maybe there's some microplastics in it. Boo hoo. Sucks. It's not ideal.

But, you know, I'd rather have that than go, you know, let's, you know, create the binary and say, go get like a pizza at Domino's. So know where Diet Coke fits in as a tool or maybe the lesser of two evils in your own life. If the truthful decision for you is really between a Coke and a Diet Coke and that's how you see things and you have the Diet Coke and you feel better than great. Fine.

I think it's a little bit of a weird binary, but fine. When I get criticisms about, quote, fear mongering, covering the study, basically, if you watch the full content, you can see it's not very detrimental. But yeah, it has a hooky thumb. That's what YouTube is about. You get some engagement bait. But I think they're

kind of alluding to the fact that I could be doing harm by dissuading people from having Diet Coke and then they're going to go have a Coke. It almost seems like the implication. I've never met someone once who were like, oh, X person on YouTube said Diet Coke is bad. I guess I'll just have regular soda.

I have gotten comments by people like, wow, this is the motivation I needed to just kick the diet soda pattern and just have water. And I've also had people say, this was the motivation I needed to kick diet soda, come back and then say, oh, wow, my migraines went away. So the cost of eliminating diet soda, even as an experiment, is negligible to benefits.

So I don't think it's a problem to be talking about these data, even in a sensational manner. And you can place the caveats at the end. Some people have problems with that. But I think like to say, wow, this is exciting. This is really interesting. Let's talk about the data, get people's emotions provoked, and then just talk about the data and let people make decisions. I think that's totally fine.

In the universe of, let's call it, health sensationalism, I don't think spreading the message that, hey, diet soda might not be that good for you is that dangerous. I actually think it's probably going to hedge towards more beneficial. But again, at the end of the day, you do you.
