Electrical code question

After running two separate circuits for my daughter's dishwasher and waste disposal, I was told that I could have simply run a three wire cable (still 2 breakers) from the panel box and fed the appliances separately. I understand the concept, but, there would be 2 hot wires and only one neutral. Would not that neutral carry twice the current it is designed for? Thanks for explanations and comments. Ivan Vegvary
