    This is about the popular sweetener used in sodas, a lot of the references are studies specific to soda - you might find something useful there

    Wow. Nope to the quoted.

    Aspartame is just 2 amino acids. Perhaps you should read the link above "why aspartame isn't scary" and be prepared to have your socks knocked off.

    I find it almost amusing that the whole "aspartame is dangerous" thing is still going on, even well after the scaremongering ads have stopped. Thank you, Facebook :laugh:
