  1. One out of every four complaints to the FDA is about Aspartame. So I say politely to the FDA, “For Shame, for you know better.” “Your job is to protect the American people, first and foremost”.
    How about calling it, “Dementia or Alzheimer’s Sweet”? Since as an excitotoxin, it is also a neurotoxin!

  2. Mike: Thanks for a timely warning on the dangers of the Aspartame product, especially concerning PKU sufferers.

  3. Joe Smith says:

    My dry-eye syndrome went away two months after eliminating all sources of Aspartame. It wasn’t easy. It was in my chewing gum, cereal and yogurt. I now read every label and refuse to buy anything with Aspartame or preservatives or added sugar in it. I now weigh the same I did when I was younger and feel like a new person.

  4. OMG I’ve been using this for over 15 years and I’m still here. Suger is the killer.

  5. I don’t know if aspartame can cause cancer. What I DO know is that I, personally, am very sensitive to aspartame. It can give me awful headaches and plays havoc with my attention span. When I’ve been consuming aspartame I find it very difficult to maintain focus on anything, my head feels funny and I can’t work.
    Whether or not it’s ‘approved’ doesn’t really tell you anything beyond the limited parameters of the trials upon which that approval is based. Asbestos was an ‘approved’ building material for many years but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t causing asbestos-related diseases in thousands of people before its use was banned.
