I recently received an email from my mother about the chemical aspartame. Apparently it is a toxic chemical found in many diet drinks as well as artificial sweetners. It has many symptoms that are actually fatal and are similar to MS. Some of these symptoms are fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting, pains, numbness in your legs, cramps, vertigo, dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, unexplainable depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, and/or memory loss.
And this is the stuff that soda companies are putting into our drinks??? It seems just a little crazy to me. If this chemical can kill us, or do other serious damage, then why is it in our food? The article also said that anything that is labeled “no sugar added” has this chemical and is dangerous to our health. Well I guess if profit margins are high, who really cares if a few people lose their life to this deadly additive?

So true. In one word, aspartame is POISON! Not only can it cause you many problems, potentially even death, but it will not even help you lose weight! Actually, it will help you GAIN weight! It builds fat storage, increases the appetite for fatty and sweet foods, and kills metabolism, so you can't lose weight! The aspartame people have not been honest with you!
