I stopped drinking diet soda, and stopped using products containing aspartame after research on the internet.
The following is from the Bragg Healthy Lifestyle book by Paul and Patricia Bragg, N.D., Ph.D.:
Beware of Deadly, Toxic Aspartame Sugar Substitutes!
Although its name sounds tame, this deadly neurotoxin is a killer! Aspartame is an artificial sweetener (over 200 times sweter than sugar) made by the Monsanto Corporation and marketed as "Nutrasweet," "Equal and Spoonful" and countless other trade names. Aspartame is added to over 9,000 food products, diet drinks, (now even gum, etc.), it's not fit for humans! This toxic poison changes into formaldehyde in the body and been linked to cancer, migraines, seizures, vision loss and symptoms relating to lupus, Parkinson's Disease, Multiple Sclerois and other health destroying conditions. Learn more info about this crime against our health.

I discovered a web site that I have found interesting: www.shirley'swellnesscafe.com
Diet soda and diet products containing aspartame were part of my life... until I did research... seems they were not helping me lose weight as well as being unhealthy.
Would be interested in comments from the ladies of SOT.<br><br>Post edited by: mazzy, at: 2006/12/09 10:35
