Downing Diet Soda Linked to Premature Births

Noooooooo!!!! Say it isn't so! On a daily basis I probably drink more than 2 liters of diet soda. I know, I know - all things in moderation but I can't seem to control myself when it comes to diet soft drinks. Fresca is one of my favs.

Unfortunately, it appears that my imbibing behavior has some unseemly consequences - namely a higher than expected incidence of pre-term births.

Why'd the Danish have to do this study anyway? Didn't they know my ignorance regarding my personal mass consumption of carbonated beverage was blissful?

Curse you Danes! Stupid science! Here's the link....(sheesh)!
