Aspartame, NutraSweet 16 months ago

I watched a documentary last night on the Aspartame cover up. I’m shocked and horrified!!! Although I never drink diet drinks and though I was avoiding it all together, I checked the gum I chew, Cobalt 5, (daily!!) and found out that it contains phenyletonurics. See http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Phenylketonurics
for the definition. Yuck!!! These chemicals prevent seratonin from keeping us feeling good and sleeping well, increase mental retardation in babies, increase brain tumors, and promote many other problems. This is a disgrace for the American Government to allow this product on the shelves. If our government was paying for the healthcare it would be outlawed and pulled off the shelves immediately. It’s a sick country when the profit of a company is more important than the health of its customers.
