After my ways to extend life post, I researched stuff that shortens lifespan. It felt weird writing about death on a longevity site. I hope an evil-mirror opposite of the previous extending life post is amusing.

Food additives are one thing people are not too aware of that could shorten their life.

 

Some artificial sweeteners are linked with cancer (in human studies). Phosphates have recently been linked with sarcopenia (in mice)

I'm not convinced on the food additives. There may be an effect, but my guess is that the effect size will be small at best. I'd love to see studies to the contrary!

There was a book I read a while back that breaks down the overwhelming evidence of the toxicity of food additives - Food Forensics by Mike Adams - skim that if you need convincing!
