Well, I'm sorry to tell you but MY personal experience is that I feel
the same whether having some or being off it completely for years at
a time. I just feel no adverse effects from it. It was one of the
first things I looked at given my known health issues.
If removing something for several years from one's diet doesn't fix
anything, and starting up again does not increase anything, I don't
see the point, myself.
And I have read that it is an individual sensitivity issue, and for
us at this house it does seem to be just that, and we have decided
not to worry about it.
BTW, I do agree the FDA is lax on this, and don't really care how
many adverse reports they receive. I even read somewhere that they
long ago stopped collecting adverse event data on it.
Now, if they were to bring back Cyclamate, which were exonerated
umpty ump years ago I'd be a happy camper. Meantime, I try to not
use too much of any sweetener, but I don't have any fear of a bit of
aspartame now and then.

But aspartame is a known neurotoxin (exitotoxin) sol, and has also
been cited as causing cancer among other things. I believe it is on
the agenda of the FDA at the moment as so many have called for a ban
on it. It was banned for many years until Reagan got into power and
then it was allowed, as its discoverer was a friend of his (so I
read.) My friend suffers from really sensitive skin on her legs and
feet and cannot bear to have them even brushed up against. Only one
of many of her ailments, so I would have thought that to keep
drinking something which is known to damage nerves would be the
height of folly. dee
