Effects Of Aspartame
Aspartame has been a popular sugar-free sweetener for over four decades and can be found in many soft drinks, chewing gums, candies and other "sugar free" products. Pound for pound, aspartame is up to 200 times sweeter than pure cane sugar. NutraSweet, Canderel and Equal are all sweeteners made of aspartame.
Initially, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration did not approve aspartame because of possible side effects. Lab tests found this artificial sweetener may cause cancer in lab rats. In 1980, a special commission was formed to look for a connection between aspartame and brain cancer. In the early 1980s, aspartame was finally approved for use in the U.S. Chemical Effects of Aspartame
When you eat or drink aspartame, it breaks down into several different chemicals absorbed by your body. These chemicals include aspartic acid, methanol, phenylalanine, formic acid and formaldehyde. You probably do not think about drinking a teaspoon of formaldehyde each day, but one of the effects of aspartame is a small increase of formaldehyde in your body.
