There is an ongoing study showing that artificial sweeteners (Aspartamein particular) cause cancer.

All those people trying to stay healthy to drinking diet things... are giving themselves cancer instead.

Could be smart watches. Don't quote me on this, but wearing a watch 24/7 that emits light to constantly track your heart rate cannot exactly be good for your health (unless you truly need it)
