Saccharin (sodium salt) — previously Group 2B, now Group 3 (IARC carcinogen)
Saccharin (sodium salt) is an artificial sweetener, often used in diet drinks, tabletop sweeteners, and some processed foods. It was previously classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as Group 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans), but after reviewing newer scientific evidence, IARC reclassified it as Group 3 in 1999. Group 3 means the evidence is not sufficient to classify it as carcinogenic to humans. This change reflects updated research, not a safety alert. Saccharin is still approved for use in many countries, including the U.S. and Europe, within regulated limits. The reclassification shows how scientific understanding evolves over time.

Alcoholic beverages contain ethanol, a type of alcohol that is the key ingredient in drinks like beer, wine, and spirits. Ethanol is also used in some household products, such as hand sanitizers and cleaning solutions. The World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies alcoholic beverages as Group 1, meaning they are carcinogenic to humans. This classification is based on strong evidence linking alcohol consumption to several types of cancer, including those of the mouth, throat, liver, and breast. IARC's evaluation, published in Monograph Volume 100E, notes that the risk increases with the amount of alcohol consumed. It's important to understand that this is a regulatory classification, not a medical diagnosis. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.
