so much passion for this subject! aspartame probably isn’t the most dangerous thing that we come into contact with. although artificial sweeteners probably trick our body into tasting sweetness and not reacting appropriately (natural sweeteners included) and over eating anyway.but I am very interested to hear about this experiment that completely disproves 500 peer reviewed studies, must have been very vivid and powerful!

I avoid artificial sweeteners and have a page on my website encouraging others to do so as well. Nothing good can come from this. Wake up people.

Today at school I got a piece of gum from this one guy…then I said ”hold on let me see the pack of gum.” Then I read the ingredients on pack of gum because my stomach was hurting I started to feel nauseaus. So when I read it said ”aspartame”. So I told him. Now it has spread around the school that I’m a liar!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[...] I recently wrote an article on my first hand research experience on the potential carcinogenicity of Aspartame – the artificial sweetener used in thousands of everyday products, particularly diet products. It was titled “Aspartame is safe … really!” [...]

[...] Is Aspartame really safe…maybe, maybe not..who should we believe? Penny at Genetics And Health has her own opinion. Aspartame Is Safe…Really? [...]

Beginning in the early and into the middle ’80’s I was reporting (to FDA) our bad effects from Aspartame intake. Those symptoms included extreme nausea, dizziness, inability to focus, and horrible headaches which left us with a feeling of “heavy head” for days following a bad headache. (cerebral edema as with neurotoxic MSG?) By the middle ’80’s repeated phoning FDA finally led to their saying they no longer needed to send papers for filing complaints as we usually had to do. I remember the girl saying that they were so swamped with Aspartame reports that she could take them over the phone. Sad to say though, when we were then finally trying to ween a family member off addictive (methanol yielding) diet sodas, we were still clueless of the deadly effects another close relative was having from the SAME addictive Aspartame diet soda. The brother we were already weening off Aspartame was having several types of effects from Aspartame intake, including “loss of vision” that returned/improved as the Aspartame level was lessened in his body. One night he went totally blind. The vision returned shortly before he was seen in the ER. Today he faces severe GLAUCOMA. I could go into detail about the terrible effects, including my own breast cancer after using Aspartame for almost 2 years, my sister in law’s 17 year old sister, a diet tea user, died of OVARIAN cancer whle all her Drs insisted they were taught that 16 yr olds do NOT get Ovarian Cancer (that was BEFORE Aspartame was marketed in ‘81) and my diabetic mom’s inability to heal when she consumed Aspartame… (Searle’s own scientists reported seizures & MAMMARY, OVARIAN, BRAIN, & other horrible tumors which twisted the bodies of lab rats fed Aspartame, also Grand Mal Seizures & total heart block/sudden death syndrome in infant monkeys fed Aspartame.) Sad to say my brother with Downs Syndrome had been having horrible choking attacks since the early ’80’s, yet we were clueless of his Aspartame intake triggering the life threatening Aspartame Choking. It was Summer of 1997 that I found Aspartame Victims online who were reporting severe effects from the neurotoxin. I still believe it to be a true miracle for Billy when I found all those dedicated people warning the world off Aspartame. I demanded that he get NO MORE DIET SODAS and certainly no more Aspartame products in any form. He was quite upset when we denied him Aspartame Diet Sodas because he clearly was addicted to the methanol yielded by the 10% methyl ester in Aspartame’s makeup. Thank heavens our dad knew how to use the Heimlich Maneuver one day as he saved Billy during his worst Aspartame Choking attack. After weening, he had choking again once when a former sister in law did sneek some Diet Soda to him. This was before she learned a bitter lesson about the deadly stuff. She came to realize more one day when her older daughter informed her that her little sister’s “falling” for no reason…might be due to the diet sodas her diabetic dad was giving her. Their mother did not believe he’d give the drinks to her, but he finally admitted it. Though they were already fearing some type of “dystrophy”, the sudden falling stopped when the Diet Sodas were stopped for the PRESCHOOL CHILD. Billy stopped ASPARTAME CHOKING once he was Aspartame FREE. Since that time we have identified 2 more Aspartame Chokers in our family…our youngest grandson who is now 12 and my now 31 year old niece, both who choked horribly several times…each time they chewed Aspartame sweetened GUM. We’ve learned this is possibly a “neuro” effect. Perhaps this is the effect we get while others who are instead prone to SEIZURES have that common neuro effect reported by many Aspartame victims. To our knowledge, none in our family are prone to seizures. However horrible Aspartame choking is indeed very frightening when the attacks trigger inability to breathe normally for quite some time until the airway is either clear or free of spasms again. We witnessed the SAME type choking in an elderly lady who was on a Delta flight with us. She was chewing GUM when we left the airport. As soon as we were in the air, she began to choke severely. Once the flight attendants felt she was better..they offered her something to drink. She said YES…a DIET SODA ! She poured about half the diet soda over ice…drank that and sat back to relax. Instead of relaxing she began WORSE CHOKING than she had had earlier. As those around her tried to help her, we could hear that she was not responding as well as she did earlier. (likely since MORE Aspartame was in her and we were at a HIGHER altitude) Through some miracle..she did recover eventually. It was the SAME type Aspartame choking we SEE in our own family. We learned that Aspartame BREAKS DOWN to the deadly NEUROTOXINS more RAPIDLY at HIGH ALTITUDES and also WHEN HEATED. I reported this to Delta when we arrived at home. The Pilots’ Hotline online has much posted by pilots who reported their own deadly effects AT HIGH ALTITUDES after Aspartame intake…effects which put passengers too in HARMS WAY when they lose vision, focus, & often experience LOSS OF DIRECTION and CONFUSION. It’s noted too that these pilots want the public to note that THEY ARE THE PILOTS WHO MADE IT BACK TO TELL of their neurotoxic effects of Aspartame. I hope more people read the reports from the Ramazzini Foundation of Oncology, 2006 (Dr. Morando Soffritti) reporting Aspartame as a Carcinogen…also that (2001)…from Norway’s Scientific Technical University (Aspartame gives brain damage especially in the area of the brain used for learning)..and also Liverpool’s Aspartame Study, 2006, reporting Aspartame as a Neurotoxin, giving it’s worst COCKTAIL EFFECT when it’s mixed with other additives, especially artificial colorings. Dr. Morando Soffritti’s expertise speaks for itself. He oversees the work of 180 scientists and researchers in 130 countries which communicate regularly regarding toxic substances. Dr. Soffritti and his team who worked on the Aspartame Studies believe Aspartame remaining on the market is a Worldwide Health Emergency so should be banned IMMEDIATELY. I totally AGREE.

I agree with you. They may not see it’s effects now, but sooner or later, they will realize that this is something they should have considered carefully.

These reports about aspertame are making the public confused with their different results.
It’s better if we avoid these artificial sweeteners.

Thanks Eleta – your comments are really interesting. I’m a great believer in putting foods into our bodies that we’re able to cope with. Our digestive system is still 50,000 years old and only able to cope with the foodstuffs we were eating all those centuries ago. None of this processed junk that is mixed with chemicals, surrounded by plastic wrappings and irradiated to death so it looks pretty. The food industry and health and safety overkill have a lot to answer for!!
