Would you be able to share what you've read? Regarding being carcinogenic (which seems to be a popular claim): Artificial sweeteners--do they bear a carcinogenic risk? -- Weihrauch and Diehl 15 (10): 1460 -- Annals of Oncology

This email a pharmacist friend of mine forwarded to me started me googling about Aspartame... There is sooo much shit out there about aspartame that its really hard to determine the BS from the truths.

Obama can rewrite history on aspartame

If the Obama administration REALLY wants to improve the nation's health, there's one thing it can do right now, without waiting for Congress to act on the socialist fantasy known as ObamaCare.

Ban the artificial sweetener aspartame.

That would be some change even I could believe in.

Doctors and scientists are renewing the call to push this rat poison out of the country, hoping that maybe -- just maybe -- some of the new blood in town hasn't been bought and paid for by the big food manufacturers.

The truth about aspartame is anything but sweet. Over the years, this dangerous toxin has been linked to seizures, coma, cancer, headaches, blindness, tinnitus, memory loss, and so much more -- up to and including death.

The Food and Drug Administrationgets more complaints about aspartame than any other food additive -- yet it remains on the market, the world's most effective legal poison.

Today, this junk is everywhere -- and I mean everywhere. Europe's top aspartame manufacturer had to quit the business because a massive oversupply was making it too hard to turn a profit. That's like a dope dealer looking for honest work because smack had become too cheap.

The intrigue behind its approval alone is like a conspiracy theorist's dream come true.

Immediately after President Reagan took office in 1981, G.D. Searle applied for approval of its artificial sweetener, aspartame. After years of unwavering rejection, they got the green light.

The head of this company just happened to be a member of the new White House inner circle: Donald Rumsfeld. His friend, Arthur Hull Hayes, got the plum job as head of the FDA. One of his first acts was to convene a panel to look into aspartame -- and when the panel was ready to rule against it, he overruled them and approved it anyway.

While Rummy continued to wreak havoc on the nation for decades, Hayes left the FDA and joined a public relations firm -- not just any old P.R. firm, but the one that had been handling business for... G.D. Searle, the maker of aspartame!

I couldn't make this up if I tried -- but don't take my word for it. Look it up for yourself, then decide if all that was just coincidence, or the world's biggest shell game.

You know how those games work -- everyone loses, except the guy working those shells.
