Toxicity Effects of Aspartame Use
Selection of adverse effects from short-term and/or long-Term use
Note: It often takes at least sixty days without *any* aspartame or
nutrasweet to see a significant improvement. Improvement in health is also
often accompanied by weight loss. Check all labels very carefully (including
vitamins and pharmaceuticals). Look for the word "aspartame" on the label
and avoid it. (Also, it is a good idea to avoid "acesulfame-k" or "sunette.")
Finally, avoid getting nutrition information from junk food industry PR
organizations such as IFIC or organizations that accept large sums of money
from the junk and chemical food industry such as the American Dietetic
Association.
