Does aspartame in diet soda turn into formaldehyde in your body?

Upon ingestion, aspartame breaks down into several residual chemicals, including aspartic acid, phenylalanine, methanol, and further breakdown products including formaldehyde,[12] formic acid, and a diketopiperazine. Anyone care for a diet soda?

Everything you eat breaks down. Your body can cope with small amounts of lots of things. Just don't drink too much of it.
