A company that has the market on contributing to the overweight and obesity epidemic, not to mention the market on unhealthy and dangerous chemicals in their drinks, is bowing to the pressure of Mexicans to reformulate Coke Zero. Why? Because one of the chemicals in the drink is banned in many countries, including the US, yet is put in the drink is some 50 other countries where it's legal. You're better off not supporting a company - in any way - that puts dangerous chemicals in their drinks, continues to market them, and does not take an active role in changing when it is clear that Coca-Cola is contributing to the demise of the health of the world. Tooth decay, liver problems, headaches, stomach problems, fatigue, pancreatic stress, metabolic syndrome, thyroid issues... the list goes on.
While the chemical, sodium cyclamate, is present in Coke Zero in the countries that it is legal, this in no way gives the green light for its consumption. Just being legal sounds so far away from being 'good' or 'healthy' for the public. There are plenty of "legal" liquids, chemicals, and other goods that aren't safe for consumption (let's start with cleaning products?), that you wouldn't dare put into your system.
So what is the replacement in lieu of the prohibition on sodium cyclamate? Certainly it must be better. Nope, just another chemical but legal - aspartame. If you haven't heard about the damaging effects of aspartame because you've been living under a rock for the past 10 years, then here are some links you may want to check out that give you a clear indicator of the ill-effects of aspartame:

The chemicals used in processing foods and beverages is rampant and are causing a serious backlash on the health of society. The future of mankind is more influenced by what we use to make, put in, or add to the foods and beverages we consume. Without individual effort to ban such products, the problem will only continue to escalate. It's all about the money, with no concern for the health and wellness of people.
It is possible that the increase in Flu around the world is more due to the lower resistance that more citizens experience due to a compromised immune system just as much or more than the mear existence of different strains of the flu virus. A healthy society is built on the foundation of good nutrition. Without it, there is the possiblity that we will render ourselves extinct.
