Have they reformulated the product to make it safer? No.
They've given it a new name!
Now on the shelves is "AminoSweet" but while it may have a new name, it is the same old Aspartame. NutraSweet is one of the old names...still found on many shelves.
Aspartame has been out for many years...and some people believe that it is safe...but the truth is that even back in 1991 reports showed at least 62 side effects from ingestion of Aspartame. These side effects include:
- Joint Pain
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Convulsions
- Seizures
- Cravings
- Weight Gain
That is one of the reason I tell you if you are going to have something sweet, have the real deal!
Most of us know that Aspartame is in diet soda (which, again, do NOT help you lose weight...even Dr Oz and his partner Dr Roizen agree with me on this one!) Did you know that Aspartame is also in many diabetic products, diet foods, and even breakfast cereal???
Aspartame can also be found in OTC and prescription medications, vaccines and even vitamins!
You may not be able to control the intake of Aspartame in medicine, but you definitely can make sure you aren't getting it in the food and drink your purchase. Read the label and avoid Aspartame by any name!
