You are quite right Frankie. I read somewhere that the person who discovered' aspartame whilst something else was being made, realised the potential for the slimming world. The head of the then FDA saw the trials and the devastation it caused and banned it from being sold. This ban lasted five years until Reagan came into power and he happened to be a friend or something, of the 'inventor' of aspartame, and within months of his coming to power, the head of the then FDA was sacked and someone else was appointed. Then, lo and behold, aspartame was allowed. I'm not sure of the veracity or accuracy of this but this is what I read. It is like statins which are being touted as the saviour of mankind, but are more probably going to be the end of a lot of us! Dee
