    What is interesting is that no one commented on the way that aspartame came on the market, which has a bearing on the OP.

    QUANTUM PHYSICS IS EXPLAINING THESE THEORIES NOW. Maybe you should read about it.

    I'm currently pursuing my doctorate in Quantum Communication. You couldn't be more wrong.

    It's the internet, of course these homeopathic people know quantum physics.... duh!

    Seems legit

    The original controversy is probably the reason why aspartame has been one of the most rigorously studied substances ever introduced. Hence the mountain of evidence supporting its safety.

    Yes, you're right---sorry, I missed your response in all the stuff that was flying back and forth. And I agree that it is very relevant to the discussion but being ignored by those who want to believe that aspartame is perfectly safe.

    I agree with a lot of what you say but I just have to make a slight point. You can not prove something is safe with the food testing, you can only prove the absence of side effects from the test. That said, aspartame is the most tested food additive ever and nothing negative has ever been proven in any legitimate study.

    For those saying homeopathy is just a placebo effect . . . tell it to these mice. Next you'll be telling me that mice as susceptible to the placebo effect also.

    LULZ.

    The article was published in a journal titled "Homeopathy".

    I'm sure the peer-review process was brutal.

    I have only read negative information about artificial sweeteners, so I try to stay away from them as much as possible. Have you tried drinking flavored sparkling water? That helps me when I'm craving a soda but don't want to drink my calories.

    You seem tenacious. Why don't you crack open a book about skepticism, and have an informative evening?

    I don't have to be skeptical about homeopathy when I've seen it work over and over first hand.

    OP, I've solved this. Prepare a homeopathic solution of aspartame and drink some after every diet soda. You'll be fine.

    No one is doing medical research on it anymore because it is considered a closed subject. But that doesn't mean that it is safe--only that the subject has been abandoned.
