No, it's not the plot of Parasite Eve. From the Independent: <BLOCKQUOTE>[An] expert in ageing at Sheffield University, who has been working on <A href="http://consumerist.com/consumer/sodium-benzoate/" title="Posts tagged as sodium benzoate" class="tagautolink">sodium benzoate</A> since publishing a research paper in 1999, has decided to speak out about another danger. Professor Peter Piper, a professor of molecular biology and biotechnology, tested the impact of sodium benzoate on living yeast cells in his laboratory. What he found alarmed him: the benzoate was damaging an important area of DNA in the "power station" of cells known as the mitochondria.</BLOCKQUOTE> Ok, we know its hard to take news seriously when it comes from a guy named Peter Piper, but sodium benzoate is no joke. It's in a lot of beverages. <A href="http://consumerist.com/consumer/coke/" title="Posts tagged as coke" class="tagautolink">Coke</A>, <A href="http://consumerist.com/consumer/pepsi/" title="Posts tagged as pepsi" class="tagautolink">Pepsi</A>, 7 Up, you name it.
