Plain-language summary of each regulated substance found above, drawn from public regulatory data.
Aspartame is an artificial sweetener used to add sweetness to foods and drinks without the calories of sugar. You might know it by brand names like Nutrasweet or the European food additive number E951. It is found in diet sodas, sugar-free gum, yogurt, and many other low-calorie or no-sugar products. The World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified aspartame as Group 2B, which means it is "possibly carcinogenic to humans." This classification is based on limited evidence from studies in humans and animals, but it does not mean that aspartame definitely causes cancer—it means there is some evidence that needs more research. IARC's evaluation comes from its Monographs program, which reviews scientific data on potential cancer risks. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.

Caffeine is a natural stimulant found in coffee, tea, chocolate, and many sodas and energy drinks. It is also added to some medications and supplements. Under California Proposition 65, caffeine is listed as a developmental toxicant when consumed in amounts exceeding 300 milligrams per day. This means that high daily intake during pregnancy may pose a risk to fetal development. The listing is based on scientific evidence that very high doses can affect growth or cause other developmental issues. It is important to note that moderate consumption—typically under 300 mg per day, or about two to three cups of coffee—is not covered by this warning. The regulation focuses on consistent, high-level intake, not occasional use. For reference, a typical 8-ounce cup of coffee contains around 95 mg of caffeine. This summary draws on public regulatory data from the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) Proposition 65 list; the linked source is authoritative.
