Re: BEWARE!!!! Aspartame re-branding
Thanks OP-- aspartame took a about 10 years of my life away from me. It was bad--- on sooooo many levels.

I wish I could sue Donald Rumsfeld over it but I can never get back what he took from me all for a little bit of money. .

It's killing my sister. She is in such bad shape, yet she CAN'T stop drinking Diet Pepsi from morning til night. She is literally addicted to it!

Re: BEWARE!!!! Aspartame re-branding
Thanks for the info. I'll let people around me know. I don't drink diet soda myself. I've just recently cut out soda altogether.

I found a nice cold glass of water with lemon juice and chopped up strawberries is a good replacement 😁

You'll get scurvy on that diet.
 Quoting: Monty Python


I have been doing it for years. No scurvy. Inuit's don't get scurvy. All they eat is meat.
 Quoting: Icey


In the 1920s, the explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson threw a wrench in “fresh fruits and vegetables” theory when he reported that the Inuit, who rarely ate plant foods, also did not suffer from scurvy. As it turns out, their Vitamin C came from animal organs: liver, adrenal glands, roe, and tongue, to name a few.

 Quoting: Monty Python


Not everyone is the same.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76555400


All humans are the same in that we can't synthesize vitamin C internally. It has to come from the diet or vitamin supplement.

Cats, dogs and other carnivores can live on just meat because they produce vitamin C in their livers.

It's theorized that humans once had that ability but lost it due to a genetic mutation.

Re: BEWARE!!!! Aspartame re-branding
In the 80's I was drinking Diet Coke buy the case.

I was getting chronic headaches and caught a Sally Jesse Raphael show about NutraSweet and all these people were getting the same. When they eliminated NutraSweet from their diets, the headaches stopped.

I did the same and got the same results. Since then I have read numerous clinical studies that it's directly linked to all sorts of neurological problems including Multiple Sclerosis.

Why hasn't this been banned? More proof the FDA works for big corporate interest, not protecting the people.

My father has been ingesting aspartame for 40 years everyday. He uses about 10 packets a day in tea and he is 82 years old and still kicking. I've tried to get him to stop but he won't and at this point it doesn't matter. I won't touch the stuff.

There are always exceptions to every rule, like the pack-a-day smokers who live to 100. Best to listen to your body. If aspartame gives you chronic headaches or unexplained seizures, stop taking it.

Re: BEWARE!!!! Aspartame re-branding


NutraSweet and sucralose are radically different chemically. NutraSweet/Aspartame is a combination of phenylalanine and other crap. Sucralose is modified sugar(sucrose). While sucralose has it's side effect, it's doesn't have the serious one's Aspartame does.

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

If you're a diabetic and have to use artificial sweetener, sucralose is the best of the bunch.


Sucralose is nowhere near the best of the bunch.

I normally use organic stevia, and occasionally a little pure honey or maple syrup.

However, if none of those are available, I'd go with xylitol or erythritol before Sucralose.

Straight off thesaurus. Com.

Synonyms for aspartame

Equal [tm]
Nutrasweet [tm]
Splenda [tm]
Sweet'n Low [tm]
calcium cyclamate
cyclamates
saccharin
sodium cyclamate
sucralose
sweetening agent

So this is not new, they change the namd on the reg, and keep using others. It's poison, lowers IQ, causes obesity, cancer, neurological disorders, etc.

Proof the whole government is a Kakistocracy and not working for the people, quite the opposite.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76638891


That's an erroneous list. For one thing, sucralose is not Aspartame. Second, it missed off another rebranding of Aspartame called Neotame, and maybe others. It's hard to keep up with this shit.

Re: BEWARE!!!! Aspartame re-branding
Anyone hear anything about Stevia? It's supposed to be natural. My health food store carries it.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75350810


Yes, we take that and blends of Swerve and Xylitol from Birch Trees, and Bocha Sweet another plant.

Just read labels.

For ex. Raw Stevia brand, lots of diabetics use it. It contains large quantities of Dextrose as the filler, something that spikes insulin higher than sugar does. Corn product, probably gmo!

Alot of health food products are not good either, they're just raking in the cash and laughing.

The 3 worst ingredients often in so called health foods are:

Maltodextrin GMO, glycemic index 110, Dextrose and Maltitol.

Yep. There are alternatives to diet coke like Zevia (stevia-sweetened) which also has caffeine. But people don't get addicted to that. It's the aspartame they keep going back to.

A lot of the addicts think it's the caffeine, but wonder why they have to keep popping Advil for the chronic headaches, when caffeine actually prevents headaches.
