I need some information on aspartame? ?


As far as I'm concerned, I've never heard of this stuff being farmed, so I try to avoid it if at all possible.

I know there is lots of material that says its probably not the greatest stuff for your health, but I need some links to inform others. Do you have any that you would suggest?

 

 

 

Best Answer -

A lot of people react badly after ingesting foods and drinks labelled "diet" items as they usually contain an artificial chemical sweetner called aspartame.......... aspartame.......... the truth about aspartame is that it is an insidious sweet chemically enhanced sugar that will cause all sorts of devastating side affects if consumed in enough quantities.

Seems ludicrous to me that something that is marketed to help you lose weight will in actual fact help you to gain weight ........... what aspartame does is block the satiety receptors in your brain (you know that feeling of satiety ie ~ having had enough to eat or drink??) thus making you unaware of the fact that you're not hungry anymore and you will most times simply keep eating .................. ***brrrr shudders*** ...... avoid that nasty stuff like the plague ... it's pure & simple sludge for your body i reckon .......... it also causes a devastating list of side affects.

I've got the same link as the previous poster on aspartame mate.... you really should read it.

There is a vast amount of very usefull and insightfull information on this website ......... the site is labelled as a detox programme but the information on documented side affects is the part that should be of most use to you ~
